The SPV Series motorized linear slide employs an AlphaStep stepper motor and controller system for tuning-free, closed loop operations. The SPV Series is a belt drive actuator that allows the load to be transferred at high-speed and long stokes. The SPV Series is available in 2 frames sizes and up to 15 stroke lengths.
The linear slide has no hunting problem upon stopping. The vibration and noise levels have been lowered by employing advanced technology that produces smoothness comparable to a microstep driver.
The SPV Series boasts a maximum speed of 1500 mm/s. It also achieves an acceleration of 5 m/s2 when carrying a load corresponding to the maximum transportable mass in the horizontal direction.
The SPV Series is available in two configurations, motor installed on top and motor installed on the bottom.
The X and Y axes can be installed easily using the PAB3 dual axes mounting bracket (sold separately). It is also possible to directly assemble the linear slides of both axes. Only products with the motor at the top can be installed as the Y-axis. Products with a motor at the bottom cannot be installed as the Y-axis.
The slider combination has to be SPV8 for X and SPV6 for Y (top) in order to make up X-Y table.

Employing an aluminum frame structure and a belt-and-pulley mechanism, the SPV6 and SPV8 support long strokes up to 1000 mm and 1500 mm, respectively. All models are capable of high-speed operation, achieving a maximum speed of 1500 mm/s.

The belt drive supports long strokes up to 1500 mm (the 1500 mm) stroke is supported by the SPV8 only).

The linear slide and controller are connected via a single cable and the wiring distance can be extended to a maximum of 20 m (10 m for 24 VDC products). The cable is fitted with a connector for quick connection.


Adopting a closed loop AlphaStep stepper motor designed to maintain synchronism, the SPV Series actuator eliminates the need for tuning to prevent hunting upon sudden load fluctuation or rapid acceleration.
A built-in rotor position detection sensor constantly monitors the motor speed and position. If synchronism is about to be lost, closed-loop control is implemented immediately. With the SPV Series you can also enjoy greater reliability because the positioning completion signal and position detection function can be used to check the actuator condition.
Stable operation can be achieved without adjustment, even when your equipment is subject to load fluctuation.

The controller is capable of controlling a linear slide or cylinder, without tuning.
It lets you use high-performance functions through simple operations. Your controller can also be used as a driver for pulse signal controls.
Positioning data can be set in one of three methods, as specified below (when the controller is used in Controller Mode)
1. Enter the desired travel amount (mm) directly.
2. Direct teaching
Move the table or the rod to the target position manually and store the achieved position as positioning data.
3. Remote teaching
Move the table or the rod to the target position using a teaching pendant or data editing software and store the achieved position as positioning data.
The controller can be used as an absolute system by connecting an optional battery set (sold separately).
Choose the absolute option if you want to start operation from the current position rather than the home position, when the power is turned on, or in the event of a power failure.
A removable controller key is used to store the parameters for the various models. This means that the same controller can be used with the EZS II Series, SPV Series, EZC II Series, EZA Series and PWA II Series.
You can set positioning data in the absolute mode or incremental mode, depending on your preferred movement of the equipment.
Absolute Mode (Absolute-position specification):
Each position is set as the absolute position with respect to the reference point. This is suitable when you want to move the work directly from an arbitrary position to a specified position.
Incremental Mode (Relative-position specification):
Each position is relative, being set as an amount of travel from the current position or another target position for the work.
This is done is a regular feed or other operation where the same pattern is used repeatedly

Selective Positioning Mode
The set data can be selected at random
Sequential Positioning Mode
Positioning operation is performed sequentially from the desire data.
A signal is output when the linear slide table or the cylinder rod enters a set area arbitrarily set along the stroke. One set area can be set.
Up to four operation data can be linked, thereby allowing the actuator to change speeds without stopping.
*Data with the same operation direction can be linked.
Four patterns of acceleration/deceleration settings are possible according to your operating conditions. Acceleration and deceleration can be set separately.
Sensorless Return to Home (only for EZS II / EZC II / EZA Series)
Return to home is performed without the use of home sensors. The home position and return to home speed (maximum of 100 mm/s) can be adjusted and the direction of return to home can also be changed.
Return to Home Using Sensors
Return to home is performed using home sensors. With SPV Series, sensors are included with the product.
The current position, error code and other data can be output to an external device.
The EZ Limo can be combined with your existing controller to serve as a driver controlling the linear slide by pulse input.
Normal System Configuration - Controller Mode
The linear slide is controlled by selecting positioning data preset in the linear motion controller.
When Combined with the Customer's Controller - Driver Mode
The linear slide is controlled by inputting pulse signals
You can easily perform all tasks from operation to data setting by using our teaching pendant or data editing software.

Oriental Motor offers a Stored Program Controller with RS-232C communications. For more information about the Stored Program Controller option please contact Tech Support at 1-800-GO-VEXTA or click here to submit an inquiry.
Use this filter to suppress disturbances during starting and stopping or to reduce vibration during low-speed operation. With the speed filter function you can control the motor to minimize speed fluctuations even switching the speed rapidly between operation commands.
The set value can be adjusted digitally (over a range of 1 to 100). Increasing the set value makes the movement smoother while decreasing the synchronism with the command.
