← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when hydraulic actuator internal seals degrade within a robotic arm joint?
A)Creep under constant load conditions✓
B)Increased power consumption during rapid moves
C)Unstable oscillations from solenoid valve failure
D)Reduced positional accuracy due to thermal expansion
💡 Explanation
When actuator seals degrade, internal leakage increases, providing a path for fluid to bypass the piston. This causes creep, which occurs because the actuator cannot maintain a constant position under load. Therefore, creep results, rather than consumption, oscillations or expansion which require different failure modes.
