← TechnologyWhich outcome arises during deep cuts on a lathe?
A)Chatter vibrations on the workpiece✓
B)Reduced surface finish inconsistencies
C)Increased machine tool service life
D)Enhanced dimensional accuracy on threads
💡 Explanation
Chatter vibrations occur because the high cutting forces during a deep lathe cut can excite natural frequencies in the tool and workpiece, initiating self-excited oscillations. Therefore, chatter ensues rather than a smooth cut because resonance amplifies imperfections.
