[Basic Knowledge Material] Motor Driver with Regenerative Brake Function RB Series

By applying regenerative braking when the motor exceeds the specified speed, it becomes possible to rotate at the designated speed.

Instead of slowing down with mechanical brakes like powder brakes, motion control can be easily achieved electrically. When the motor rotates faster than the specified or set speed, the motor is used as a generator to slow down that speed and apply the brake. The four-quadrant driver is overwhelmingly cheaper compared to servo drivers. It is a recommended product for those who don't need a servo but want some level of control. We offer the technical documentation for the RB series free of charge. For more details, please refer to the catalog. Feel free to contact us as well.

basic information

The four-quadrant brushless motor driver automatically applies brakes when the speed exceeds the set limit, such as when an AGV is going uphill and exceeds the configured speed. By simply setting the speed, it helps prevent or mitigate overshooting the set location, personal injury, property damage, and damage to surrounding devices like motors and drivers. When lifting and lowering loads, while there may be no issues during ascent, the descent can exceed the intended speed due to gravity and the weight of the load, posing risks of property damage, personal injury, and motor damage. By reducing and stabilizing the speed during descent, it aims to minimize property damage and personal injury. The dimensions, appearance, specifications, and usage methods are inherited from VENUS, allowing for immediate replacement from the current driver. It is compatible for switching from MLD-030-ST or MLD-075-ST. There are some changes in usage methods, so please download the catalog for detailed information.
