← TechnologyWithin a hydraulic robotic arm, which risk increases when the actuator's spool valve experiences significant wear?
A)Increased actuator positional overshoot✓
B)Reduced fluid bulk modulus anomaly
C)Enhanced system energy efficiency
D)Decreased operating temperature range
💡 Explanation
Increased actuator positional overshoot occurs because spool valve wear increases internal leakage ('Stiction') between control ports. Therefore, precise positioning is harder to maintain, rather than seeing better energy efficiency, because the actuator becomes less predictable.
