Which type of error increases in CNC lathe operations when exceeding the machine's maximum specified spindle speed?

A)Resonance-induced tool chatter grows
B)Thermal expansion of guide ways
C)Backlash within ball screw occurs
D)Compensated offsets produce inaccuracies

💡 Explanation

Resonance-induced tool chatter will significantly increase when exceeding a CNC lathe's spindle speed, because the machine elements vibrate near their natural frequencies, therefore causing instability rather than increased thermal expansion, which results from longer run-times.
