← TechnologyWhich risk increases when setting extremely tight tolerances in CNC machining?
A)Accelerated tool wear and breakage✓
B)Improved surface finish consistency
C)Reduced overall machine downtime
D)Decreased material removal rate
💡 Explanation
Tighter tolerances require more precise cuts and higher forces, therefore increased stress on cutting tools causes accelerated tool wear, eventually leading to breakage, because the material undergoes more cycles within endurance limit, rather than improved surface finish.
