Stopping time The stopping time determines how long braking torque is applied to the motor.
The braking time should be long enough to bring the load to a complete
standstill.
To achieve a sufficient braking effect until standstill, the load's mass moment of
inertia should not be higher than 5 times the motor's mass moment of inertia.

).
The soft starter has no standstill recognition; if required, this must be
accomplished using external measures.

Typical applications for DC braking
Use "DC braking" in lathes (e.g. for tool changeover) and disk saws.
