16. USING A DIRECT DRIVE MOTOR
16 - 18
16.5.3 Dynamic brake characteristics
POINT
Do not use dynamic brake to stop in a normal operation as it is the function to
stop in emergency.
For a machine operating at the recommended load to motor inertia ratio or less,
the estimated number of usage times of the dynamic brake is 1000 times while
the machine decelerates from the rated speed to a stop once in 10 minutes.
Be sure to enable EM1 (Forced stop 1) after the direct drive motor stops when
using EM1 (Forced stop 1) frequently in other than emergency.
(1) Dynamic brake operation
(a) Calculation of coasting distance
Fig. 16.3 shows the pattern in which the servo motor comes to a stop when the dynamic brake is
operated. Use equation 16.1 to calculate an approximate coasting distance to a stop. The dynamic
brake time constant
τ varies with the direct drive motor and machine operation speeds. (Refer to (1)
(b) of this section.)
