Which outcome occurs when a lathe's feed rate exceeds the material's shear capacity?

A)Chatter vibrations induce surface defects
B)Increased tool wear requires replacement
C)Thermal expansion impacts positional accuracy
D)Excessive swarf buildup halts operation

💡 Explanation

Chatter vibrations occur due to metal's elastic response and subsequent resonance when the feed rate is too high, therefore surface defects appear as a result of this self-excited vibration from unstable cutting, rather than normal wear patterns or build-up.
