Technology

Which error increases as a collaborative robot ('cobot') arm approaches a singularity?

A)Unpredictable joint velocity changes
B)Thermal runaway in servo motors
C)Encoder pulse count inaccuracy
D)PLC instruction cycle time overruns

💡 Explanation

Joint velocity unpredictability increases due to the cobot’s inverse kinematics encountering infinitely many solutions near singularities. Because minor Cartesian-space movements then yield wildly different joint velocities, the error becomes significant rather than servo overheating arising from constant use.
