← TechnologyWhich vibration is expected in lathes encountering intermittent cuts?
A)Regenerative chatter vibration✓
B)Forced vibration resonance
C)Self-excited torsional vibration
D)Harmonic structural oscillation
💡 Explanation
Regenerative chatter vibration most likely occurs on lathes due to tool path overlaps; where surface waves cut by an earlier tool pass forces the tool to vibrate because these waves introduce varying cutting forces. Therefore the part surface becomes wavy itself causing worse intermittent cutting, rather than consistent cutting.
