User questions & answers

Question:	How long are the motor cable
Answer:	No traction, so you will not only slip but the boots also leak. However, you will look cute.
Question:	What is the shaft diameter of this unit
Answer:	I would suggest doing so. I did use waterproofing spray on mine.
Question:	Why does the rated voltage in the description say 3.6 volts but I see users saying it runs fine with 24 volts
Answer:	These are supposed to be waterproof but over the course of the year that I wore them, they leaked fairly often. To be fair, I live in the PNW on an island and got them quite wet, but the leaking was from the seams around the toes.
Question:	what are the actual dimensions in mm
Answer:	No, there is not a lot of support in these boots.

User questions & answers

Question:	My left y axis motor on my anet e 10 isnt working can i replace it with this
Answer:	You need to raise your z endstop on the side 3mm to account for the extra thickness of the glass. Also, there is a clip on Thingiverse that clips onto your X gantry that will make your gantry hit the stop if you would rather use that instead of raising the z-endstop. Just search “ender 3” on Thingiverse and you’ll find it.
Question:	What is the shaft size
Answer:	Mine has the small print centered in the lower front as in the picture.
Question:	will this work for my CR10 extruder motor. will it plug right in? is there anything special i need to do like turn up voltage
Answer:	Check to see if the motor rotates By going into prepare then down to select move xyz turn the knob see if motor moves. If not Amazon may have a motor.
Question:	need small 12 volt motor to open 90 degrees, to open very small door and close it with same motor
Answer:	The CR-10 Mini was partially assembled, as was my Ender 3. the Ender 3 needed slightly more assembly, so it varies slightly by the model.

User questions & answers

Question:	The drv8825 seem to have no pad for measuring vref like the polulo version has. where can i measure vref
Answer:	If I remember correct you measure it from the adjustment screw itself.
Question:	Can this be used with Nema 23 425 oz/in steppers
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Hello, could anyone help with some simple code? I am looking to simple say - this motor rotate this much then stop
Answer:	Here is the test code for testing 3 motor positive reversals: https://mega.nz/#F!XENxlahT!40uX7JxNvTsCdGtXRg3J1Q By adjusting the number of pulses, you can determine how large the angle is. One pulse is 1.8 degrees and the test code is 200 pulses. You can adjust this to adjust the angle of rotation, such as 2 laps is 400. Any question please feel free to contact with us. [email protected]
Question:	What else do I need to use this for a cnc
Answer:	You need the machine frame and table, some type of head or spindle, whether a 3d extruder or cutting spindle. A computer, software and drive mechanisms such as belts or lead screws. Some combination of patience and skill to put it all together.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work for the X axis on an Anycubic Chiron
Answer:	A little.
Question:	Can this motor replace the extruder motor on a cr-10 / cr-10 v
Answer:	It seems fire-treated material but that is NOT "fireproof". A camping tent is fire-treated, but will still burn given a steady flame. If you need true fireproof, you want an all-metal enclosure AND you want to relocate the power supply outside the enclosure (don't forget to use a ground bonding wire between PS and the frame). An all-metal box is enough money to by that you will want to DIY it, trust me.

Answer:	Cable,s are about 18" long
Question:	what is the rpm

Question:	Will this stepper motor work as a replacement for a soyo sy42sth47-1504a used in the lulzbot mini 3d printer
Answer:	It comes down to the voltage your stepper drivers use. I have ran these motors with both 12v and 24v printer boards without much fuss. Be sure not to exceed the amps.
Question:	What are the recomended volts and amps for max torque

Answer:	Yes - they do come up to the waist and are very comfortable.
Question:	Can it accept 24V voltage

User questions & answers

Question:	For the purposes of calibrating esteps/mm for a titan extruder, can you tell me what the steps/rev are for this stepper motor
Answer:	2A is rated current, we recommend you drive this motor with rated current.
Question:	I wanna replace my old motor for a new one, I’m not sure if this is strong enough to move the z axis of my Ender
Answer:	I am using a TB6600 at 2 amps and 36 volts and get over 1,000 rpm but have to use an acceleration curve as the motor won't go from a dead stop to that rpm without stalling.
Question:	Is there a wiring diagram available
Answer:	Based on my review of the two sets of specs, my answer is, this motor will PROBABLY work as a replacement. The physical dimensions and the step angle are a match. This motor requires somewhat more current and has slightly more torque. Unless I missed an important detail, I believe that these motors will work.
Question:	I have the ender 5 with 24v system will this work as a replacement for the Y axis stepper
Answer:	The torque in a stepper motor is proportional to the current. For the motor in question, the max current is shown as 2A. The winding resistance is given as 1.4 ohms per phase which works out the 2.8 Volts (2 amps x 1.4 ohms). However, this is not the end of the story. In order to achieve the 2 amp rating once the motor is in motion, requires a much higher supply voltage than 2.8 Volts. This is because once the motor moves, it generates a internal voltage that subtracts from the supply voltage. Additionally, the motor winding inductance prevents the current from rising immediately. To counteract these two forces, you need to apply a much higher voltage to the motor to force the current to the desired level. Using a modern stepper driver that provides adjustable current limiting makes this easy. The overdrive voltage needed will depend on the maximum voltage that the driver can handle, the insulation breakdown voltage of the stepper motor, and the desired speed you need reach. A good starting point is 10 X the value obtained by looking at the the winding resistance and maximum current ratings. In this case 2.8V (see above). That would imply that an overdrive voltage of 28V would be reasonable to use. If you chose this voltage, make sure the stepper driver can handle it. Also make sure your power supply can supply the current. You can back this value down as needed if you don't have to run a very high speeds. Hope this helps you out.
