CT782,
In my experience, if positioning is important your dont stop on the brake. The motor & drive stops the machine, and the brake holds t he position. In the "old days" you can "plug" and ac motor with dc to stop it, but better accuracy was achived with a DC Gen field control. You may get buy by installing a 3 HP motor (if the size is right) and use your current drive with regen resistors. You must consult with Fuji, and/or review the manual.
This thread makes for an interesting dialog, but you really need to approach somebody like Baldor who can assist in helping you figure out the whole drive/motor/regen thing, and provide you with all the components. Be sure to give them ALL of the details of your requirements for speed load and stopping accuracy etc..
Good luck with it,
Mike.
