← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a PLC controlling a robotic arm experiences timing inaccuracies during coordinated motion?
A)Path deviation and collision risk✓
B)Reduced energy consumption of motors
C)Increased encoder signal resolution
D)Faster servo motor cooling rates
💡 Explanation
Path deviation results because improperly timed PLC signals disrupt motor velocity commands defined by inverse kinematics; this causes positional errors during movement because velocity profiling relies on consistent timing, therefore risk of collisions between elements increases rather than benefiting energy use.
