Abstract
An end mill inspection device, which inspects an end mill having a blade part formed in a curved convex shape or an arc shape, includes: an imaging data acquisition unit that acquires imaging data obtained by capturing an image of a blade part of the end mill by an imaging unit; a contour extraction unit that extracts the contour of the blade part on the basis of the imaging data acquired by the imaging data acquisition unit; and a curvature radius calculation unit that calculates a curvature radius of the contour on the basis of the contour of the blade part extracted by the contour extraction unit.
