(3) Obtaining the tolerable No. of positionings
The tolerable cycle operation frequency per minute DP is calculated respectively for the standard
built-in regeneration resistor and option regeneration resistor.
Refer to expression (11-11).

929.6
= 25.8 (times) No. of positionings = 51.6 (times)
Because the No. of times described above is the No. of cycle operations for 1 return for a vertical
axis, the No. of positionings is 2-fold. Thus, it is shown that the MR-RB30 (300W) option resistor
is required to satisfy the specified positioning frequency of 20 times/min.
POINT
Try to choose a resistor with some allowance in the vertical axis, because the
regeneration load can easily become large compared to a horizontal axis.
