Which outcome occurs when metallic debris contaminates an optical encoder in a high-precision CNC milling machine?

💡 Explanation

Debris disrupting the encoder's optical path causes inaccurate or intermittent position feedback; the control system then attempts to compensate via positional control oscillation, because it's reacting to false position data. This occurs, rather than damping alteration which impacts stability under load.
