Which defect occurs in a CNC lathe operation when resonance frequencies align?

💡 Explanation

Harmonic resonance induces self-excited vibrations between the tool and workpiece causing cyclical variations in depth of cut, generating visible surface defects– chatter markings, rather than the effects of work hardening. It amplifies vibrations, therefore, causing surface imperfections rather than dimensional issues.
