Hi, i have come across a stepper motor from a printer.
The motor is a PM51L—F48, online i couldn't find much more than the producers
(datasheet ).
The motor is listed as two phase 24V and 1 A, i have never used a stepper but i think i know how it works, so i believe a DRV8825 driver IC would work for it.
By the description it should tolerate up to 45V and 2.2A with proper cooling.
thank you all <|:)
What's the help You need? What's the question?
Would the driver I talked about work?
Check up the cooling needed. A heatsink will help and a little fan do alot.
I I have used 4988 with heatsink and fan.
Her's a link to the datasheet of the 8825. Take a look for the heat handling recommended! DRV8825 data sheet, product information and support | TI.com
Where did you see that? From your link I see:
That means a rated Current of 1A and 3Ohm= 3W power per Coil
And it needs a chopper driver - e.g. the DRV8825 to drive it with 24V.
sorry i got confused with another motor i ordered used
And about which motor are we talking here?
Nema 17 SL42S TH40-1684A-23, listed as 20€ each, I bought four for 5€ each
That is a 1.8 A/phase motor. For full motor torque, choose a current limiting stepper driver than can handle at least 2 A/phase.
Are we talking about this stepper ?
A DRV8825 with proper cooling should be able to drive it.
You should change the topic's title - this is a completely different motor.
Yeah I wasn't actually worried about that motor ahahah
My whole point was just to be sure about the motor/create some documentation about it
