Thanks for the grbl-controller, it is saving lot of time in troubleshooting.

This was a great video! Easy to follow along to and very simple. I've learned a lot.

Thank You! I'm using this shield for a wire wrapping machine and needed to know how to enable it, you answered my question. The enable pin doesn't have to jumper to ground though, it is also connected to D8 on the Uno, so you can use code to enable/disable the stepper drivers if you want to rather than having them always enabled. The first set of drivers I put in had a bad driver and it was enabling the others but the stepper it was driving wouldn't move. When I figured out I had a bad driver, I put what I thought were good drivers in but nothing worked anymore. I think I made the mistake of putting drivers in before I used a multimeter to trace which pin went where and all the driver enable pins showed as being straight to ground pins on the Uno so I figured they must just be always enabled. Yes, I'm stupid but a lot of people just short the enable pins to ground anyway rather than coding the stepper enable pins.

i learned everything i needed thanks for making such a great and detailed explanation

Bro you just save my b.tech final year project. Thanks a lot bro.

well this was neat simple compact and exactly what I wanted to know. thanks a lot.

I just got a complete CNC machine that might have a fried board. So i've been thinking about getting to learn to use Arduino. Maybe i can replace the "electronics" with an Arduino instead of having to buy new parts for 1000$ :) Thanks for the vid, i will look more into this!

Thanks for the video. For my motors I had to increase the 500 microsecond delays for the step pulses to 2000 microseconds for one type of motor and to 3500 microseconds for another type.

merci pour ton super tuto :)

i want to use 4 nema 17 with these same drivers can you tell me how to calculate total current and voltage and how to choose the correct power supply as required. And also that enabling of enable pin keep the shield and arduino isolated ? could be so helpful !

I have the shield and the Uno, but I don't see any FET transistors on it - so I guess the stepper currents are driven directly from the chips? What size of stepper will they drive? NEMA 23?

Thanks for this great tutorial, i'd like to ask just one question: can i use only two stepper motors? Thanks in advance

Thanks Bro For Stepper motor testing CODE.👍🙏

Hello, I'm using your stepper test code, to make an inexpensive toy, since I had bipolar steppers in hand. I was wondering how to control the rotation speed, in the code, using your stepper code test script, and the V3 module. I'm using all 4 outputs, from the V3 module, including the A output.

great video . i really appreciate it . may i ask about the A driver? it wasnt used in the video. maybe you can instruct me how to use the A driver as a stepper motor controller . and do you know how to make all the stepper motors run together simultaneously? id really be thankful about it

I know this is late but I'm answering in case someone else has the same question. If you're not using it for CNC with GRBL or writing your own code, use D12 for Step and D13 for Dir of A (I may have that backwards but those are the two pins). All the driver enable pins are connected to the same enable pin he showed as needing to be jumped but that enable pin is also connected to D8 so you can use code to enable/disable if you want to instead of using a jumper and having them always enabled. For use with GRBL, use jumpers, the A can be used to clone X, Y or Z, depending on where you put the jumpers for use with GRBL. GRBL can only be used for 3 axis so one has to be a clone for it. You can find more on this online and where to place the jumpers to clone which axis fairly easily.

Hello, is there any way to control 4 stepper motor using some kind of switch(rocker or toggle)?

Bro i did exactly as u shown in the video but the motors r stucked they r nt moving

great video.i have built a filament winder and using the same boards as you have here.would it be hard to program them to run a stepper motor at a constant torque and even stop if too much force is applied?.as the winder gets full the rotation speed has to slow down so the motor speed is determined by the force needed to wind the filament.i have seen this on other winders but have no idea how they do it

@SuperbTech

3 жыл бұрын

Thank you. I may be wrong, but i think there is a way to control the tension of the wire. You can measure the current consumption of the stepper motor with an arduino and a current sensor. High current means more torque is exerted on the wire. That way you can calibrate the diameter of the wire.

@SuperbTech

3 жыл бұрын

Commercial filament manufacturers have laser diameter measuring devices, which then create a feedback loop to control the pull tension, to get the desired diamater accurately.

@@SuperbTech yea, you are right about the current consumption. i got it sorted by using maximum step pulses and minimum current using standard stepper driver and speed controller.it doesn't take a lot of force to slow or even stop the motor from turning which is what i need

Hello, program ran a few times and then quit. Current displayed on power supply went to zero while voltage remains at 12 [V]. Any thoughts regarding why current may have quit and motors are no longer operating? EN/GND jumper still in place... Thanks! Great / helpful video!

@@jamesssydney For 12 bipolar steppers you need 24 available pins as I showed you in wiring diagram. Arduino Mega had 54 digital pins so you can control at least 25 motors. In addition you can use analog pins as well as I remember. If it is not enough you can add I/O expansion boards to your Arduino and it will give you dozens of additional pins.
