Energy exchange between two drives
[7-179] Energy exchange between two drives
• Other drive axes in the multi-axis system must be able to absorb recovered energy.
• In case of a quick stop for all drive axes, a brake chopper is usually required in addition since no
drive axis is able to absorb the regenerative power.
Buffering braking energy
[7-180] Energy storage in the capacitor
• The braking energy is stored in a capacitor in order to make it available again in the next accel-
eration or lifting process.
• Compared to a regenerative power supply module, the costs are lower, but the storage capacity
of the capacitor is limited.
• Energy storage is cost-effective for fast cycled drives (e.g. cross cutters).
