Re: Stepper motor locks up when going higher than 8mm/s - 6 years ago
But if I connect an even smaller motor to the Y axis driver it locks up as well. I'm really confused as to why this is happeningby hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors

But why does my motor lock up even while not hooked to the rod as seen in my video?by hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors

X has a belt I have no info on and Z and Y run on M8 threaded rods. I have calculated the steps/mm by sending commands to move 10 mm and then adjusting accordingly. Here are my current settingsby hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors

The problem also occurs if I connect the X axis to the Y axis output so I doubt it's a mechanical issueby hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors

Interesting,I'll try reducing the microstepping. But why does the motor lock up even without it being hooked to the screw?by hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors

Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with my stepper motor,it appears to lock up on speeds higher than 8mm/s. It's only my Y axis motor that does this,my Z axis uses the same motor and stepper drivers and it works fine. In the video I hooked up another motor to the Y axis cable to show that the problem isn't mechanical. I've reinstalled Marlin and checked the wiring. I've replaced the stepper motby hermanelfino - Stepper Motors, Servo Motors, DC Motors
