FIVE SOLUTIONS TO BRAKING CONTROL
As we try to improve the performance and productivity in industrial process where stopping or slowing
down an overhauling load is important, the capability to manage the load is essential.
A few common
applications include dynamometers, test stands, and punch presses.
There are many solutions to incorporate braking control into an application.
Depending on the desired
level of performance and control, the technology being used in the drive, the physical demand and
characteristics of the application, this article will help you determine the appropriate solution for the
application.
What is braking control?
Braking is essentially the removal of stored motion (kinetic energy) from a mechanical system.
When
the motor and the attached system are brought up to speed, electricity is added and converted in to the
motion of the system.
To stop or slow down the system, the kinetic energy (that has previously been
stored) in the mechanical system must be re
