Voltage/Current Replicator 2/2X NEMA 17 Hybrid Stepper Motor

Hello everyone,
I am looking for the characteristics of the engine.
I can not find the voltage that requires and the consumption of the engine.

Because I am trying to understand why my easyDriver becomes extremely hot during the engine function.

Driver : https://www.robotshop.com/en/easydriver-stepper-motor-controller.html

I followed the instructions on arduino and I provided 12v with 2A.

Thank you

Hey @Steamby

This motor is designed as a replacement for the Makerbot replicator, that’s why you can’t find any schematics or datasheet. Howerver, I’m pretty sure it is not intended to accept 12V and is drawing way too much current.

Nema 17 motors are usually rated for under 4V per coil.
