Appendix 2-2 Selecting the regenerative resistor
Calculate the regenerative energy for stopping (positioning) from each axis' rapid traverse rate, and
select a regenerative resistor having a capacity that satisfies the positioning frequency determined from
the machine specifications.
Appendix 2-2-1 Calculating the regenerative energy
(1) For horizontal axis
For the horizontal axis, the regenerative energy E
R consumed by the regenerative resistor can be
calculated from expression (2-6). If the E
R value is negative, all of the regenerative energy is
absorbed by the capacitor in the drive unit (capacitor regeneration), and the energy consumed by
the regenerative resistor is zero (E
R= 0).

(Example)
When a load with the same inertia as the motor is connected to the HF53, determine the regenerative
energy to stop from the rated rotation speed. Note that the drive unit is MDS-R-V1-20 in this case.
