 Couplers connect the motor to the threaded rods that move your z-axis up and down. If the motor and the rod are not perfectly aligned, the rotation of the motor will apply force to the rod and push it into x and y direction. This leads to the so called **z-wobble** and slightly shifted layers. Couplers connect the motor to the threaded rods that move your z-axis up and down.
