Abstract
Methods and systems for controlling and understanding brake capabilities of an actuator for power machines are provided. One system may include activating a brake of an electric actuator to maintain a position. While the brake is activated, the system may adjust an electric current of the electric actuator. While the electric current of the electric actuator is adjusted, the system may monitor for positional deviations from the first position. When a positional deviation is detected, the system may determine a present electric current of the electric actuator and determine, based on the present electric current, a performance metric for the brake of the electric actuator.
