Which risk increases when a PLC’s scan cycle exceeds defined limits in a robotic assembly line?

💡 Explanation

Elevated scan cycle times cause unpredictable timing, increasing position error because the PLC executing Inverse Kinematics calculations struggles to maintain real-time trajectory precision. This leads to calculation errors impacting kinematic positions rather than other feedback loop or module specific faults which are detected discretely.
