In a CNC milling machine employing servo motors for axis control, which outcome directly indicates incremental encoder signal corruption?

💡 Explanation

When incremental encoder signals are corrupted, proper real-time position feedback is lost; the position control loop degrades. Because the path-following becomes inaccurate (path deviates) due to lost steps in position feedback rather than vibrations. Therefore, path errors diverge rather than other system errors.
