Will any of this steppers work?
Hi, First I'll Introduce myself, my name is Andres, I'm from Argentina, i'm building a prusa mendel with a friend, using RAMPS electronics, and would like to know if you guys could help me, any of...

As a matter of preference, i choose to overlook all that torque bs, its much less relevant than what it appears to be. First off, depends on which conditions that said torque is measured, some...

The ones which say for example "phase resistance" 12 ohms or more, strike those off from start. In the end, ideally pick one with 2-3-4-(5max) ohms coil resistance and (min1.2A)-1.5-2.0-2.5A current.
View ArticleRe: SOLVED Stepper motor too slow
Changing a stepper motor from full step to 1/16 micro stepping will make the motor run slower, since it's still getting the same number of steps. At 1/16, it takes 16 times as many steps to make one...

Finally i buy stepper motor. This is its featuers. 1.7 A 4.08 v 12v 5 A power supply also i can use 12V 2.5 A drv8825 I want to set voltage by pot. How much do I adjust the voltage?

Assuming this is your driver, on that page scroll down and it is written "Current Limit = VREF × 2". So start with 0.8A peak, that means Vref=0.4V. It should have enough torque like that, but if it...

I'm slowly getting all the parts to put together a RRP TriColour Mendel. Would these steppers be any good: [www.ebay.co.uk] I'm in the UK so the shipping from Germany is a bonus. Ben

My stepper motor current is 1.7A so Current Limit = VREF × 2 ==> VREF=0.850 V is that right?

Nop, not like that. The 1.7A label on the motor is a maximum, not something you want to have. Also the drivers have a current rating which is also a max, again not good have. That pot on the driver...

Perhaps would be nice to know which motors you have, or pictures or something. But anyway you only need to open the motor if you have a 5 wire unipolar only motor to which may try to separate the...

Those look ok imo. I would try them with drv8825 drivers.

That's a weak field. People simply try and error. Even basic maths is too much for most RepRappers. If you want to do it yourself: F = m * a Force = mass * acceleration Having the required force you...

Not even manufacturers make torque numbers like that, i think what they give is mostly tested empirically instead. But methodology can differ, some manufacturers will say torque graph is from constant...
