Which outcome occurs when a CNC lathe's toolpath deviates during stainless-steel machining?

💡 Explanation

Increased surface roughness results because undesired vibration causes chatter. Instabilities excite the tool and workpiece at resonant frequencies, causing poor surface finish due to the self-excited vibration effect, rather than reduced tool wear or dimensional accuracy, therefore damaging product tolerances.
