Generally, only the average temperature at the tool/chip interface can be obtained.
Sometimes, a tool-work thermocouple was also used.
The calibration of the tool-chip thermocouple is shown as:

3. Infrared Radiation Technique
The first use of this technique was reported by Schwerd who developed a total
Radiation Pyrometer for determining the temperature distribution at the surfaces of
tool and workpiece.
Several researchers attempted to access to chip/tool interface by scanning through
holes drilled either in the work or tool. Prins' pyrometer arrangement is shown as
follows:
Limitation of the above measurements is that there is considerable interference of the
contact zone which must influence the heat flow and the resulting temperature of
either the chip or tool surface.
Infrared Photography technique proposed by Boothroyd can obtain a full
temperature field in the chip and workpiece. A calibration strip, which was electrocally
heated from one end,was simply used to calculate the real temperature. The following
setup was used at that time:
