I have Prusa mendel built some time ago.
Arduino + ramps 1.4 + a4988, wades extruder, marlin
Currently my extruder is working ok, but it is set to full step, loud and not precise
When I'm setting to 1/16 on ramps, stepper is turning werrry slow.
Question: If I will adjust pots on driver, will motor spin faster?
I understand that I will need to adjust steps per mm.
But this will be after getting stepper to spin in correct speed
Motor info:
NEMA 17 Stepper Motor Model 17HS19-1684S - Specifications

Did some troubleshooting: connected extruder motor to x axis driver witch is 1/16 micro stepping.motor spins ok
with my lcd controller i found Vmax X and Y are 500 but Vmax E is 25.
Is it ok or this needs to be changed??
