Which outcome occurs when a welding robot's position encoder malfunctions, disrupting kinematic calculations?

💡 Explanation

Inaccurate weld bead deposition happens because a malfunctioning encoder leads to incorrect joint angles via inverse kinematics, therefore precise end-effector positioning fails, rather than affecting unrelated systems like coolant or gas flow because those are independent circuits.
