From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

A Chatter mark is one or, more commonly, a series of marks made by vibratory chipping of a bedrock surface by rock fragments carried in the base of a glacier. Marks tend to be crescent-shaped and oriented at right angles to the direction of ice movement.[1]

In machine tools a chatter mark is an irregular surface flaw left by a wheel that is out of true in grinding [2] or regular mark left when turning a long piece on a lathe, due to machining vibrations. [3]
