Which risk increases when a hydraulic actuator rapidly cycles near its maximum speed?

💡 Explanation

When a hydraulic actuator cycles rapidly, the control valve experiences high flow rates and pressure drops, causing cavitation because localized boiling introduces vapor bubbles which collapse and cause erosion. Therefore, control valve cavitation increases, which directly damages internals, rather than temperature, diaphragm, or buckling due to other effects.
