When the load is held by the mechanical brake, its size cannot be determined, only its direction. The moment the
brake opens, the motor must take over the load. To facilitate the takeover, a user-defined torque
(
parameter 2-26 Torque Ref
) is applied in the hoisting direction. This process is used to initialize the speed controller
that finally takes over the load. To reduce wear on the gearbox due to backlash, the torque is ramped up.
3.
Release the brake.
When the torque reaches the value set in
parameter 2-26 Torque Ref
, the brake is released. The value set in
parameter 2-25 Brake Release Time
determines the delay before the load is released. To react as quickly as possible
on the load-step that follows after brake release, the speed-PID control can be boosted by increasing the propor-
tional gain.

Illustration 5.8 Brake Release Sequence for Hoist Mechanical Brake Control
Parameter 2-26 Torque Ref
to
parameter 2-33 Speed PID Start Lowpass Filter Time
are only available for the hoist mechanical
brake control (flux with motor feedback).
Parameter 2-30 Position P Start Proportional Gain
to
parameter 2-33 Speed PID Start
Lowpass Filter Time
can be set up for smooth transition change from speed control to position control during
parameter 2-25 Brake Release Time
- the time when the load is transferred from the mechanical brake to the drive.
Parameter 2-30 Position P Start Proportional Gain
to
parameter 2-33 Speed PID Start Lowpass Filter Time
are activated when
parameter 2-28 Gain Boost Factor
is set to 0. See
for more information.
