← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a CNC lathe stalls during hard-material machining?
A)Catastrophic tool wear accelerates rapidly✓
B)Improved surface finish temporarily occurs
C)Vibration amplitude decreases noticeably
D)Coolant begins exhibiting increased lubricity
💡 Explanation
Rapid tool wear occurs because the stall halts relative motion, and therefore prevents efficient swarf removal where built-up edge welding causes attrition and diffusion, rather than controlled abrasion. Thus catastrophic wear results, rather than improved cut quality.
