RE: Chatter
Concerning the correction, IF you are talking about Grinding, then:
1) Machine and Set-up Rigidity. Grinding wheel speed, feed rates, etc.
2) Grinding wheel condition as far as Wheel Trueing, Wheel Dressing, and perhaps Conditioning or "Wear-In".
3) Grinding wheel Grade to take into account workpiece geometry, material, operation, desired stock removal, desired grinding rate, surface finish and tolerances, etc.
4) Coolant type and application method,
More specific Questions would be required for more specific answers.

These Grinding Cycle Monitors are used in the Bearing Industry as well as many Cutting Tool Industry applications. Normally, however, where these GCM units are being used, the problems are more advanced than a simple Chatter Detector.
Also, Grinding wheel consultants can frequently modify the system for Wheel type and Grade, Wheel Speed, Coolant type and application method, Trueing/Dressing methods, infeed and thrufeed rates, etc., etc.
Would Need Specifics to advise further. RamS@Free-Market.net

Different grinding processes (centerless grinding vs. internal grinding) may requires somewhat different approaches.
