The power-off brake motor layout is simple: small parts, high reliability, easy air gap adjustment, and convenient maintenance. It is small, lightweight, and easy to install. The motor and brake are integrated, minimizing size and weight, ensuring a robust design suitable for small spaces. The brake noise is low; using a DC brake eliminates electromagnetic noise, resulting in low brake noise.
Brake motors require high-precision positioning. As a brake motor, it should feature: rapid braking, accurate positioning, reliability, interchangeable braking systems, simple layout, and easy replacement and maintenance. Many manufacturers require brake motors to control motor inertia, achieving precise positioning for automated machine operation.
Brake motor layout principle: When the power is cut, the brake armature is released, and the spring resets the armature, pressing against the friction disc. The motor shaft is held by the friction disc, maintaining the load. Brakes wear during use. Good brake pads are wear-resistant and maintain braking force. However, with prolonged and frequent use, check brake wear to prevent brake failure. Inspection involves opening the motor cover and adjusting the brake gap (0.4-0.7 mm). If wear is severe, replace the brake assembly.
An electromagnetic brake is located at the rear of the brake motor. When the motor is energized, it is also energized and engaged, not braking the motor. When the motor is de-energized, it also de-energizes, and the brake stops the motor via spring action. To measure the open-circuit voltage of the rotor, the rotor is held stationary, the rotor winding is open-circuited, and the starting resistor is disconnected. The rated voltage is applied to the stator winding, and the voltage between the rotor slip rings is measured. For speed-reducing motors with a rated voltage exceeding 500V, the voltage applied to the stator winding can be appropriately reduced.
