Re: Impact and Capability of Motor Brakes?

Argon,
The electric brake that you mention is a very capable system that requires some feedback and fine tuning in software to work reliably. We have only used it once or twice as I remember. It also eats electricity when not done properly so it is possible to trip breakers. It took our software guys a lot of reading before they used it.
