Which outcome occurs when exceeding speed limits during lathe machining of hardened steel?

A)Work hardening and tool failure
B)Reduced surface finish occurrence
C)Decreased thermal expansion forces
D)Lowered residual stress induction

💡 Explanation

Work hardening and tool failure occurs because increased cutting speeds generate excessive heat, which causes the cutting tool to soften and leads to premature tool failure. Therefore, exceeding speed limits produces tool failure, rather than efficient material removal or improved finish quality.
