App. 5.10 Coasting distance of electromagnetic brake
At an emergency stop, the servo motor with an electromagnetic brake stops as the following diagram. Here,
the maximum coasting distance (during fast feed) L
figure and can be calculated approximately with equation 5.30. The effect of the load torque is greater near
the stopping area. When the load torque is large, the servo motor will stop faster than the value obtained in
the equation.
