Dynamic Braking a Linear Motor
Dynamic Braking a Linear Motor
(OP)
Given the catalog specifications of a linear motor with delta winding and a given payload, how does one determine the resistance necessary on each lead to dynamically brake the system?





RE: Dynamic Braking a Linear Motor
You probably won't get enough braking out of an induction motor with a resistor. Often DC is injected into one or more windings and braking is caused by the resulting induced eddy currents in the LIM rail.
