The typical method of sharpening broaches consists of using an aluminum oxide grinding wheel on a hand-wheel operated manual sharpening machine. This process is dependent upon the skill and feel of the operator which may cause a variance in the amount of metal removed. If one tooth is sharpened to a greater extent than the others, the result is an increased stress on the tooth and less then optimal tool life.

As a direct result of the manual sharpening , a progressive, uncontrolled alteration in the original broach geometry is created and may result in a drop in the
performance efficiency of the broach.
