A “Motor Parallel Module Driver Splitter” is an adapter that allows a single motor driver to control two stepper motors simultaneously by wiring them in parallel. This is a common setup in 3D printers, where two motors are needed for one axis (like the Z-axis) to provide more power and stability.
How it works:
The splitter module connects to the output of a single motor driver and branches out to two separate connectors for the motors.
Current Distribution: The current from the driver is split between the two motors. For this to work correctly, both stepper motors must be identical so the current is divided evenly between them.
Synchronized Movement: The two parallel motors will perform the exact same movements (same number of steps and in the same direction) because they are receiving identical signals from the single driver.
Power Considerations: You must make sure that the combined current draw of both motors does not exceed the maximum output current of your motor driver. If the current is too low for the motors, it can cause them to skip steps and fail to move correctly.
Features:
100% brand new and high quality.
Only for small printers or small current motors in parallel (with the same motor in parallel, the current are divided evenly).
Easy and convenient to use
Specifications:
Module Size: 25mm*15mm
Cable Length: 100mm
Weight: 4.8g
Applications:
3D Printers: A parallel module is often used for the Z-axis, where two lead screws need to be driven together to raise and lower the print head evenly.
CNC Machines: It can be used in CNC applications that require two motors to drive a single axis with more torque.
Small Robotics: Projects requiring synchronized movement from two small stepper motors can also use this module.
