← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a robot's servo motor encoder signal experiences excessive noise during a pick-and-place operation managed by a PLC?
A)Inaccurate position feedback and oscillating motion✓
B)Overcurrent in the motor drive circuit
C)Unresponsive system due to PLC overload
D)Sudden temperature rise in processor
💡 Explanation
Inaccurate position feedback and oscillating motion result, because excessive noise interferes with the phase-locked loop mechanism maintaining servo motor position. The PLC interprets faulty encoder readings, therefore precise motion control failures, rather than simple overcurrent or CPU load effects.
