Glentek High Speed Spindle Drives

Glentek’s new High Speed Spindle Drives provide ultimate performance for your application. Advanced space vector algorithms and commutation techniques developed at Glentek provide sine wave output from square wave hall sensor inputs. This eliminates higher order harmonics resulting in lower motor operating temperature and longer life. By utilizing Field Oriented Control algorithms, our drives can achieve speeds up to 100,000 RPM.

Typical applications include: Lens Grinding, Semiconductor Silicon Slicing, High Speed Die Grinding, High Speed Routers, Semiconductor Wafer Processing, High Speed Nut Driving (automotive), and many more.

Glentek’s High Speed Spindle Drives can work with any feedback device, including Sentron’s sine wave Hall Sensors.

Current (Torque) Mode

The current mode spindle amplifier accepts a +/-10V analog input as a current command. For this mode of operation, the amplifier provides high current loop bandwidths for high acceleration and high speed spindle applications.

Velocity (RPM) Mode

The velocity mode spindle amplifier accepts a +/-10V analog input as a velocity command. For this mode of operation, a digital velocity value is continuously calculated from the Hall or encoder input signals. Glentek’s high gain / high bandwidth velocity mode spindle amplifiers are the preferred choice and utilized in many high performance spindle systems.

Features

  • 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.

  • Silent operation: 25 kHz PWM standard.

  • Advanced Modulation: Glentek’s advanced algorithms allow for maximum utilization of the DC BUS voltage.

  • Auto Phase Advance: Glentek’s advanced algorithms found in the Alpha Series drives, automatically provide phase advance, insuring that the current is delivered at the appropriate time which provides the most efficient commutation and cooler motor operating temperatures.

  • Smart-Comm Initialization: Eliminates the need for Hall sensor or commutation tracks for many applications.

  • Sinusoidal commutation: For the ultimate in efficiency and smooth motion. Commutates from almost any resolution linear or rotary encoder.

  • Non-volatile memory: All parameters are stored in non-volatile memory for reliable start up. In addition, up to two different configurations can be stored.

  • Dedicated inputs: +/- position limits, inhibit, fault, motor over temp, reset signal, go/stop, E-Stop, and +/-10V analog input.

  • Dedicated outputs: Selectable analog monitor signal, fault and encoder output.

  • Internal output inductors: SMB/SMC9420 has 600 micro-Henrys phase to phase inductance for low inductance motors.

  • At speed relay: Relay closure when actual speed is within 10% (50 RPM minimum) of commanded velocity. If necessary, this percentage can be configured to within 1% of commanded velocity if requested prior to ordering. Maximum operating current of relay is 1 amp.

  • Encoder feedback: Accepts nominal encoder signals up to 5 MHz (maximum frequency of up to 10 MHz is possible, but is system dependent).

  • Status indicator: 7-segment display indicates amplifier status and diagnostics.

  • External logic supply (keep alive): SMC versions require an external 24-48 VDC, (600mA min) power supply for amplifier logic, encoder or Hall sensors. This enables “keep alive” ability.

  • Parametric filtering: Provides advanced filtering to eliminate unwanted system mechanical resonance.

  • RS-232 or RS-485 (optional): High speed (115.2K baud) serial communication interface for set-up and tuning.

  • Software configurable: Glentek’s Windows™ based MotionMaestro© software provides ease of set-up, monitoring and tuning with no previous programming experience required. This software is Windows™ 95/98/2000/XP/NT/Vista and Windows 7 compatible.

  • CE compliant: All servo amplifiers are CE marked.
