13.3 Dynamic brake characteristics
13.3.1 Dynamic brake operation
(1) Calculation of coasting distance
Fig. 13.3 shows the pattern in which the servo motor comes to a stop when the dynamic brake is
operated. Use Equation 13.2 to calculate an approximate coasting distance to a stop. The dynamic
brake time constant
varies with the servo motor and machine operation speeds. (Refer to (2) of this
section.)
