DM542 vs TB6600 and NEMA 23 stepper Motor torque test Hanpose vs Pu Fei De on Arduino Uno

[@billysmether6237]

You are testing holding power. Dip switch 4 controls the amount of current flowing to the stepper when it is in the hold position. You have dip switch 4 set to low, you need to set it to high (on) which will double the holding amps. I would not increase the amperage to the motor past manufacturers specifications. It will increase the temperature of the motor, especially in the hold position. Steppers can take a lot of heat, but I never let them run any faster than warm to the touch max. Running them hotter may cause missed steps when rotating.

[@sir5245]

The SW4 is off on the DM542, which means the holding current is only half the settings (2.84/2 A). I think that's the reason why the holding torque is not as good as TB6600.

[@qozia1370]

What's the torque values?? You measure torque without sharing torque values??

[@aijazmuhammadkhan3139]

WHen using the DM542 each time on the last rotation the motor made a grave noise while on the first 3 rotations it was very quiet. Why is that so ?

[@milo178]

I was trying to find it's limit by increasing it's rpm each turn. The last rotation has the highest rpm

@@milo178 Thankyou fir your reply M178. For my University Project I am working on a hardness testing machine which involves a stepper motor and these days I am searching for stepper motors that's how I came across your video. Can you kindly share your email or any other contact detail where I can take guidance from you to select a particular stepper ?

[@electronicsideas1361]

good how can run this with forward and reverse with switch

[@milo178]

There should switches available to switch the direction available at the stepper driver

Album not so soon. Got stuck for a while as the Spindle wasn't working and was trying to figure out the cause. It's now working again and the next video will be on this fault finding

[@combrogos]

Have you considered that your wiring may be wrong ? The DM542 Dir+ and Pul+ should be getting 5v. There is a pin on the Uno for this.

[@milo178]

5v volt pin at the UNO can not be controlled like the digital pin.

[@TristanJCumpole]

The stepper motor potentially draws 6,0A as this is 3,0A _per phase_ and not the entire motor.

[@robertorodriguez1088]

Can the ENA and DIR inputs be supplied by more than 5V? Will it work with 12V?

Hai admin...are you sell the driver..?

is the metal rail really 1.8 meters? it doesn't look like it

[@milo178]

Yah, u r right. its 180mm. But the torque is still correct though.

[@suryav6050]

Shall I get the arduino code for torque control ??

[@dopetechlab9619]

Do you think that the 3.3 amp setting would still work for a 3 amp motor?

[@milo178]

It should. Just that the motor will run hotter anf shotter life span. Just like putting a turbo to a naturally espirated engine

[@dopetechlab9619]

@@milo178 but some M542 driver say RMS 3 amp and peak 4.2 amps. So whats the current written on the motor? rms or peak?

[@shaunonverwacht9626]

I don't think your test was definitive. In what way is the DM542 better than the TB6600? The two things that I take away from your video is that (1) the DM542 is quieter and (2) the TB6600 delivers more torque.

[@milo178]

It's quiter and smoother

[@shaunonverwacht9626]

@@milo178 thanks for clarifying. I, too, would prefer a smoother, quieter solution (though those might sometimes be secondary requirements). What is your application?

@BuildGUY torque difference only slightly due to amp settings availability. I don't need so much torque, so smoother is better for me
