Reason for "positive" in the name[edit]

Does anyone know for certain why this concept uses "positive" in its name?
If so please add tat info to the article.

There's also "positive" in:

  • "positive displacement pump" (synonym for Moineau pump) and
  • "positive control" (in the context of factory automation lines as mentioned here at 1m10s).

It seems likely that these use "positive" in their names for the same reason.
