Stepper Motor
The anet A8 uses Nema17 size stepper motors generic information about these motors can be found here. Unfortunatly there it is not clear which manufaturer this stepper came from. Therefore the mechanical and electrical parameters are missing. Based on user experience the folowing data has been collected.
Current:
current | voltageDRV8825 | Result |
---|---|---|
1.4A | 0.75V | working for x,y and z axis |
1.6A | 0.8V | working for extruder |
2A | 1.0V | working but motor got so hot that acrlyc soport deformed |
