5.7.11 Using a brake/clamping unit
One of the local digital outputs (Out1 or Out2) can be used to
control a brake/clamping unit. Options here are a continuous
signal or, in the case of Out2, both a continuous and a pulsed
signal (PWM, see Fig.5/12).
The parameterisation can easily be carried out via FCT.
Note the detailed functional descriptions
in the help section
for PlugIn SFC−LAC.
Note
When using the DNCE/DFME−...−LAS−...−C clamping unit:
The clamping unit may not be closed until the drive is at
standstill. It must be opened before a new positioning
motion begins.
The clamping unit must not be used to brake moving
masses. Braking masses in movement leads to increased
wear and to the functional failure
of the clamping unit.
