What's a better setup? Installing a braking resistor to a Hitachi WJ200 series drives to stop the spindle quickly or would letting the spindle brake stop the spindle after say a half second of shutdown?
How did Bridgeport set it up initially? I've never seen it run before my retrofit and I know it had an auto setting I'm just not sure that going from 4000 RPM to 0 RPM quickly is good for the spindle brake or even the motor for that matter. It's a Bridgeport Boss 5 with a rigid ram.
