This product page covers SMB9215-008 and SMC9215-108 models (the Xs in SMX9215-X08 are variable placeholders). SMB models use bus power logic. SMC models require an external 24 VDC logic power supply.
The SMX9215-X08 Alpha Series Digital PWM Servo Drive in the Multi-Axis package configuration operates from 17-50 VAC and can output up to 10 A of continuous current. All SMX92 Alpha Series drives can control brushless (standard servo and high-speed spindle), brush type, rotary, linear, voice coil, and AC induction motors. They also offer expanded command and control modes, including pulse (step) and direction. Feedback is accepted from a wide range of devices and protocols, namely brushless resolvers.

| Performance | |
|---|---|
| FOC | All Alpha Series employ Field Oriented Control method which allows accurate control in both steady state or transient operation, and optimal orientation of the magnetic field. |
| Space Vector Modulation | Glentek's advanced algorithms allow for maximum utilization of the DC bus voltage while generating minimum harmonic distortion of the currents in the winding of 3-phase AC motor. |
| Digital Current Loops | Current loop bandwidths up to 3 kHz. |
| Digitally Tuned | All parameters set digitally. No potentiometers to adjust. DSP control for the ultimate in high performance. |
| Parametric Filtering | Provides control engineers advanced filtering to eliminate unwanted system mechanical resonance. |
| Smart-Comm Initialization | Eliminates the need for Hall sensor or commutation tracks for many applications. |
| Auto Phase Advance | Plug and Play for all types of three phase brushless motors. Provides control engineers the ability to connect any motor to the drive's motor outputs. The drives smart algorithm will automatically find and align the motor phases to allow for the most optimized smoothness and efficient commutation. |
| Sinusoidal Commutation | For the ultimate in efficiency and smooth motion, commutates from almost any resolution linear, rotary encoder, or Hall sensors only. |
| Fault protection | Short from output to output, short from output to ground, drive RMS over current, drive under/over voltage, drive over temperature, motor over temperature. |
| On-the-fly mode switching | This feature allows the drive to switch between any mode of operation on-the-fly. That is, the drive can switch between current to velocity (or velocity to current), current to position (or position to current), and velocity to position (or position to velocity) while the motor is in motion. This feature is available upon request. Please contact Glentek application engineers for assistance. |
| Software configurable | Glentek's Windows-based MotionMaestro software provides ease of set-up, monitoring and tuning with no previous programming experience required. MotionMaestro for Alpha series drives is Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10 compatible. Click here to download. |
| Silent operation | 25 kHz PWM standard. |
| Command/Control Modes | +/-10V for current (torque) or velocity (RPM), pulse (step) and direction, encoder follower, external sine commutation (2-phase current mode), RS-232, RS-485, PWM for current (torque or velocity (RPM), and camming/gearing. |
