Wiring Notes:
This uses a standard stepper motor plug on most 3D printers. Depending on your stock printer wiring this motor should work on any machine. See below for how the plug is wired. If you connect this to your stock motor plug and it shakes instead of moving then you will need to re-arrange the pins to match the wiring on the included cable. Board end of the cable may have 4 PIN JST XH or 4 PIN DUPONT style connector (depends on stock)

Nema 17 motors are amazing. Partnered with the TH3D tough extruder this motor is much lighter and has much more torque when used with the tough extruders 3:1 gear ratio.
A must have for weight reduction and more power for your 3D printer.

Can this be a replacement for the normal extruder motor on the ender 3 ?
(0) (0)
Tim Hoogland –
You can use it for the stock E. But it works best with something like the Tough Extruder that we carry that is geared.

DuPont 4 pin connector plugs directly into the extruder port on the EZBoard lite?
(0) (0)
Tim Hoogland –
It’s recommended to use a 4 pin JST XH to connect a stepper motor to any control board. The Duponts can connect to the JST but its not a tight connection on any board, meaning it can work but it is not recommended.

Jose Ortiz –
I think I posted my question in the wrong section (review). At what current should these be run? Using BMG/V6 direct drive
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
These handle up to 1A current. Usually, a VREF around 0.8-0.9V is sufficient but refer to your driver manual for specific VREF calculations.

Is there a wiring diagram for this? Is it a direct plugin on the Ender 3 existing ribbon cable, the cable provided or something else?

Need some help with wiring up the
TH3D 1A Pancake-Stepper-Motor For Titan or Bondtech Extruders – NEMA 17 22.6mm
to my CR10 E connection cable.
This Pancake-Stepper-Motor has a 4 wires Cable which comes with this Pancake Stepper Motor.
This Pancake-Stepper-Motor Cable has the Black wire located to the far right
and with the White 6-pin Plug the Black wire is moved to the inside between the Red and Blue wires.
At the other end of this Pancake-Stepper-Motor Cable, it has a different black 4-pin plug which the Black wire is to the far Right.
I believe I need to cut this black 4-pin plug OFF
and wire this Stepper-Motor Cable to the CR10 E cable White 6-pin plug.
I do not know what each wire is and how they need to be connected together with the Stepper-Motor Cable wires and the CR10 E Cable White 6-pin plug.
Can someone provide me with a wire diagram which show what and ware the wires need to be connected together ?
(0) (0)
Tim Hoogland –
There is no wiring diagram for specific machines as this is a universal part. Please post in one of our communities for questions like these. http://community.th3dstudio.com But typically for stepper motors you’ll just connect across the wires on each ribbon after cutting the ends off. Meaning wire 1 to 1, 2 to 2, etc. Then see if the direction is moving correctly. If not you can reverse the wire connections (1 to 4, 2 to 3, 3 to 2, 4 to 1) to reverse the motor direction, or you can reverse it in firmware as well.

Can this stepper motor be used 1) with the Micro Swiss direct drive on ender 3 pro, and 2) As a direct replacement for x, y, and z stepper motors?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
This is a standard NEMA17 size stepper so it should fit the MicroSwiss as they use a NEMA17 mount. As for the other motors you could use (technically speaking) it but we wouldn’t recommend it as this is intended for use with extruders. The stock motors for XYZ work fine and this wouldn’t give you any benefit over the stock motors.

roblesvic (verified owner) –
On an ender 3 pro, can I just replace the stock stepper motor and use the stock wire with the pancake motor, or do I need to install the included wire?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
It depends on how the stock wire is pinned. You can use the stock one but may need to flip the 2 center pins on the connector that goes to the stepper motor if it doesn’t move correctly. Creality has 2 variations of their motors and they use different wiring.

Would this be suitable to replace use with an EZR Struder in a direct drive?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
While it may work we only recommend using a pancake with a geared extruder as they make better use of the torque of the motor. Pancake steppers have less torque than traditional non-geared ones like the EZRStruder from SeemeCNC.

Would this work good for direct drive with the ezr?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland –
Not likely since that extruder is direct and not geared. These steppers work well with extruders that have gearing (like the Tough Extruder, Titan, Some Bondtecs, etc).

This work on a Sovol SV01? Plug and play?

This will work on the SV01 but may require pins on the Stepper motor (stock wire) plug to be moved.

This is working really well with the Tough Extruder. When I calibrated it I ended up using a 412 step count with my Ender 3.

Barrett Middleton –
Currently have a Creality Direct drive extuder setup installed on an ender 3V2… While installing a petsfang bullseye I discovered the stock stepper obstructs the fang from being positioned correctly…. Will this be a plug and play with my current stock cable (Middle wires are crossed) Or will I need to change pin positions? Also will my e-steps need to recalibrated?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Tim Hoogland (verified owner) –
We cannot predict if the wiring will need to be flipped because Creality tends to change things from time to time. But the 6-pin plug on the motor is the same physical plug that Creality uses on their steppers so the cable can be re-used but may need to be re-pinned. ESteps would be the same as these are 1.8 degree motors which is also what Creality uses.

A must IMHO if you go with the tough extruder/Multimount for a direct drive setup up. I have two of these on my ender 3s along with the Tough Extruder, Tough Hotend, and MultiMount

While we have not tested it on that extruder we have had customers tell us they are using it with the MSDD with no issues.
