This chapter discusses the influence of the machining process and machining parameters during machining of composite materials. In the first time, the chapter summarizes reviews of the machining processes and its impact on the mechanical behavior of composite materials. In the second time, a characterization of the surface defects induced by different processes of machining (conventional and nonconventional) is presented. Finally, the chapter focuses on the impact of the different nature of damage generated on the mechanical behavior of composites structures during static and fatigue tests. Keywords: Process of machining; Material integrity; Damage; Drilling; Trimming
