You could adjust the voltage going to the motors by turning down the adjustable pot on the stepper drivers, or you could put fans on the motors, or both.

Thank you.
I found the solution.
In mezli board, they set default voltage of stepper motor is too high. (0.8V as I check). And now, I down it to 0.4V, it OK.

[reprap.org] here's some info.
