Which risk increases when a CNC lathe center's programmable coolant nozzle becomes clogged during continuous operation?

A)Overheating of the cutting tool
B)Increased spindle motor vibrations
C)Catastrophic material deformation rate
D)Uncontrolled thermal oxidization hardening

💡 Explanation

Tool overheating risk increases because *reduced convective heat transfer* between the cutting tool and workpiece elevates tool temperature. Therefore, thermal softening becomes prevalent and tool life shortens, rather than the workpiece becoming unstable or motor damage, which are consequences of other failures.
