4-4 Regenerative Energy Absorption

4-4 Regenerative Energy Absorption

The Servo Drives have internal regenerative energy absorption circuitry, which absorbs the
regenerative energy produced during Servomotor deceleration and prevents the DC voltage from
increasing. An overvoltage error occurs, however, if the amount of regenerative energy from the
Servomotor is too large. In this case, measures must be taken to reduce the regenerative energy
by changing operating patterns, or to increase the regenerative energy absorption capacity by
connecting an External Regeneration Resistor.

Note In the output torque graph, acceleration in the positive direction is shown as positive, and
 The regenerative energy values for each region can be derived from the following equations.
Note Due to the loss of winding resistance and PWM, the actual regenerative energy will be
