Hi Guys,
I finally found time to wire the board and came across an issue with the Minebea Type 17PM-K018-G22ST.
I think it's wired up correctly but when giving the command to turn it rotates very roughly but correctly in one directions and makes a whining noise. The noise stops when I disable the steppers on the LCD Menu. The rough movement however has a pretty high torque.
I am using a Ramps v1.4 board with A4988 (max 2A per Phase).
I tried running with Jumpers set to Full Steps and 1/16Microsteps and this didn't change the behaviour.
Do you think i need to set the Voltage higher on the A4988s?
Tomorrow I'll try the SHINANO KENSHI STP-42D204-01 Motors to see if they behave different.
Greetings
Nike
