← TechnologyWhich positioning error arises because of cable stretch in a CNC milling machine using rotary encoders on preloaded ball screws?
A)Hysteresis-induced absolute positional inaccuracy✓
B)Resonance amplifying torsional deflection
C)Gibbs phenomenon causing overshoot errors
D)Backlash manifesting as angular divergence
💡 Explanation
Cable windup causes hysteresis because the drive overpowers elastic tension rather than precisely matching encoder feedback; therefore, there is an inaccuracy after directional changes, rather than resonant amplification or Gibbs phenomena under continuous motion.
