7.1.2 Advantages of a drive system
When several controllers are operated in a DC−bus connection (DC bus), this offers the
following advantages:
ƒ
Energy exchange between controllers in generator−mode (braking) and motor−mode
operation.
ƒ
The energy exchange reduces the supply power from the AC mains.
ƒ
DC−supply modules or feeding single−axis controllers can be dimensioned with a
lower rated power.
ƒ
The energy exchange reduces the braking losses in generator−mode operation.
Advantages for installation:
ƒ
Only one AC−mains connection (e.g. at the DC−supply module).
ƒ
Reduced wiring costs.
