Technology

Within precision CNC turning of steel components, which increased risk occurs when reducing dimensional tolerances below the machine's inherent capability?

A)Increased tool wear and breakage
B)Reduced surface finish quality
C)Greater thermal expansion errors
D)Higher spindle motor energy consumption

💡 Explanation

Reduced tolerances demand increased machining precision, which overstresses the cutting tool due to increased cutting forces via the stick-slip effect. This is because **vibration-induced tool wear** is exponentially related to the severity of cutting parameters; therefore tool life plummet rather than surface roughness changes in such a situation.
