Fibre reinforced composite materials having their own specific advantages are why they currently gain more and more attention. A vital procedure once preparations of materials are done is the machining process. Various secondary operations such as milling, drilling, turning and various unconventional processes are used for achieving near net shape and size of desired component. Compared to conventional materials, fibre reinforced composite materials are more practical to be use in machining process due to less amount of cutting forces are required to complete the exact shape and size of desired component. Therefore, a review on milling of fibre reinforced composite material will be helpful for numerous researchers and other manufacturing industries, which are currently working in this field. This review paper represents the classification of composite materials, Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) Composites and Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) Composites. In addition, this review also defines the machinability of CFRP composites selection and tool design of end mill.
