Technology

Which consequence results when resonant frequencies affect the cutting process on a CNC lathe using a slender workpiece?

A)Chatter and surface finish worsens
B)Increased tool wear immediate failure
C)Higher spindle motor energy usage
D)Reduced coolant flow at nozzle

💡 Explanation

Harmonic resonance causes unstable tool movement resulting in chatter. Because the modal Interference mechanism increases vibration amplitude when excitation frequencies align with natural frequencies, the surface finish degrades; therefore, chatter increases rather than a catastrophic event as energy dissipates.
