8.2.2 Calculating the Amount of Energy Required for Retraction in the Event of a Power Failure
The energy required after a power failure is the sum of (1) and (2) below.
(1) Energy required for the cutting from the time a power failure occurs until retraction is started
(expression <3>)
(2) Energy for movement along the retract axis (expression <4>)
The area of each region indicates energy.
Region (1): Energy required to start retraction after a power failure.
Region (2)-1: Energy required to accelerate to the retract speed.
Region (2)-2: Energy required against the friction along the retract axis.
Region (3): Energy that returns to the amplifier due to deceleration along
the retract axis.

Power consumption
* In area (3), the energy for decelerating the motor returns to the amplifier.
Depending on the condition, the energy generated in area (3) may cause the DC link high voltage alarm to be
generated. For this reason, the retraction of the workpiece and the tool must be completed before
deceleration along the retract axis starts. See Subsection 7.1.4.
(1) Calculation of the energy W2 [J]required for the cutting from the time a power failure
occurs until retraction is started.
Assuming that the maximum cutting output before a power failure occurs is P2 [kW],
the energy W2 [J] required for the cutting until retraction is started is determined
with expression <3>.

The maximum cutting output P2 [kW] in expression <3> is determined from the motor
converted axis torque at maximum cutting Tm [Nm] and motor speed n [min
