Working brake – BE.. brake

Is the braking torque sufficient?

1.1

• Select a greater braking torque.
• Select a larger brake size (adhere to feasibility).
• Select larger motor, in case a larger brake could not be mounted prior.
• Select a larger gear ratio.
• Reduce the load in the application.

Is the permitted switching frequency sufficient?

1.6

• Select a rectifier with high-speed excitation.
• Select a larger motor.
• Extend the application's cycle time and reduce the required switching frequency.

Is the vertical/horizontal braking work sufficient?

1.8

• Reduce the brake application speed.
• Select brake control with AC/DC shutdown.
• Select a smaller gear ratio.
• Reduce the application speed.

Is the brake service life sufficient?

1.11

• Select a larger brake size (adhere to feasibility).
• Reduce braking work, see "Is the vertical/horizontal braking work sufficient?".

Final drive check:

Calculating the drive considering the selected components and their characteristic values (such as inertia)

For detailed configuration criteria and procedures, refer to the SEW‑EURODRIVE project planning guidelines.
