Plastic brackets and Hot motors
« on: May 08, 2022, 16:54:00 »
Hi all
Testing the nema 14 motors recommended by Tom (https://www.omc-stepperonline.com/nema-14-bipolar-1-8deg-18ncm-25-5oz-in-0-8a-5-4v-35x35x34mm-4-wires-14hs13-0804s), but they are getting very hot.
Before I attach to 3d printed plastic brackets, I think I need to adjust the current.
Am I correct that with a rated current of 0.8A, I need to adjust the potentiometers to arrive at a reference voltage of 0.4v?
Has anyone tried these with plastic brackets without current adjustment?
