10. CHARACTERISTICS

10.3.1 Dynamic brake operation

(1) Calculation of coasting distance
Fig. 10.3 shows the pattern in which the servo motor comes to a stop when the dynamic brake is
operated. Use equation 10.2 to calculate an approximate coasting distance to a stop. The dynamic
brake time constant τ varies with the servo motor and machine operation speeds. (Refer to (2) (a), (b) in
this section.)
A working part generally has a friction force. Therefore, actual coasting distance will be shorter than a
maximum coasting distance calculated with the following equation.

For the servo amplifier of 7 kW or less, there is internal relay delay time of about 10 ms. For the servo
amplifier of 11 kW to 22 kW, there is delay caused by magnetic contactor built into the external
dynamic brake (about 50 ms) and delay caused by the external relay.
