A positive stop is a mechanical device used to limit the movement or position of a component within a machine or system. It is designed to prevent overtravel or to establish a specific end point for the motion of a part. Positive stops are commonly used in machinery, automotive applications, and various mechanical systems to ensure precise positioning and prevent damage from excessive movement.

Positive stop means that the thing you are moving has stopped because it has come into contact with something else (interference.) It has reached the limit of its range of travel.
