← TechnologyWhich effect happens when inconsistent PLC cycle times impact deterministic control?
A)Timing-induced positional errors occur✓
B)Motor overheating becomes more likely
C)Encoder signals experience signal loss
D)Kinematic solutions become mathematically singular
💡 Explanation
Timing variation causes positional inaccuracy because jitter in the PLC's execution of the inverse kinematic calculations introduce errors propagated down to the servo motors through control loops; therefore precise motion is not assured, rather than other failure modes related directly.
