← TechnologyWhich failure results when the actuator over-travels in a variable displacement hydraulic pump?
A)Rotor group component damage✓
B)Reduced compensator spool pressure
C)Increased pilot valve performance
D)Improved system cooling capacity
💡 Explanation
Over-travel results in collision with the pump housing via **mechanical interference**. The actuator’s excess motion pushes the swash plate beyond designed limits, causing direct impact, because the travel limit is exceeded, therefore causing rotor damage rather than other hydraulic effects.
