Manual SD6
11.8 Brake management
Brake management monitors to ensure brake tests are performed regularly,
thereby controlling the functional capability of the brake.
The SD6 provides the following options for axis management:
•
Single axis operation: An axis projected in DriveControlSuite is used for the
connected motor.
•
Multi-axis operation: Two, three or four axes projected in DriveControlSuite
are used for the connected motor.
The procedure for single axis operation is explained first. Then the special
features of multi-axis operation will be explained.
Brake management can be used provided the following conditions are met:
•
Self-activating brakes are used, which means they brake in a de-energized
state.
•
The braking torque M
Brake
must be at least 1.3 times the maximum braking
torque.
•
The drive has an encoder.
Note this information during projecting and during commissioning of the
machine.
11.8.1
Single-axis operation
Preconditions:
•
You have now activated and parameterized the brake control unit.
Brake management works with the following state machine:
Activating brake management
1. Set parameter
B310 Brake management
to
1:global
.
2. In parameter
B311
set the time after which the drive controller will
generate a message that a brake test is required. You can set maximum
1 year = 52 or 8760 hours of operating time.
3. Transfer the parameters to the drive controller and save them.
4. Switch the drive controller off and back on again.
Brake management is activated after start-up.
