4.6 Using an electromagnetic brake
Servo motors are used in loads such as vertical axes. When the motor is not enabled or powered
o, in order to prevent the mechanical mechanism driven by the motor from falling due to gravity
and other reasons, it is necessary to use a servo motor with an electromagnetic brake.
Note: The brake of the servo motor can only be used to maintain the position of the motor when
the motor is not enabled or powered o. Do not use it as a brake during deceleration, otherwise the
motor will be damaged.

4.6.2 Precautions for the use of brake motors
• The special output interface of the driver to control the brake can directly drive the brake of the
motor, and the auxiliary power supply must be connected to provide 24VDC.
• The electromagnetic brake is a normally closed type, and the motor shaft cannot rotate without
power supply to the brake.
• The brake will make a clicking sound during the braking / release action, which will not aect
the use.
• It is recommended to use a cable of 0.5mm 2 (AWG20) or more to prevent the cable from
being too thin and causing voltage drop.
