← TechnologyWhich limitation causes reduced precision despite position sensor feedback, in a hydraulic actuator controlling a robotic arm?
A)Backlash in the gear train
B)Increased fluid bulk modulus
C)Sensor signal quantization error
D)Velocity saturation of control valve✓
💡 Explanation
Velocity saturation of control valve limits response because desired actuator velocity exceeds the achievable flow rate set by the saturation limit. Therefore, the actuator cannot reach target positions accurately, rather than issues arising from gear train backlash or signal quantization.
