Method and apparatus for bringing rotating body to standstill

摘要

Method and apparatus are described for bringing a rotating body, set in rotation by a drive, to a standstill as the conclusion of a work cycle. The rotating body may be placed in bearings in a balancing machine where it is investigated for unbalance. Characteristic values for the drive and the rotating body obtained during the acceleration phase are utilized in conjuction with one another for purposes of stopping the rotating body at an exact and specific position for machining purposes at that position on the surface of the rotating body.
