Used in smaller, budget printers or as Z-axis lifters. Maintenance and Troubleshooting
While the "424015A" might be a specific OEM part number, finding compatible replacements is easy. Search for on major online marketplaces. Many brands are inter-compatible, and you can often find multi-packs at a very reasonable price. For direct OEM parts, Hangzhou Bachin Electronic Technologies Co., Ltd. is the original manufacturer.
The driver board alternates the current through the windings (phases) of the stator.
Incorrect phase wiring or a missing connection on one phase coil.
When the motor is stationary but powered, it acts as a holding brake, preventing movement, which is essential for CNC laser applications. 3. Wiring and Control (424015A)
: Usually signifies a rated current of 1.5 Amps per phase , a common specification for mid-range NEMA 17 motors.
: Denotes a motor body length of approximately 40 mm . A longer body houses larger internal magnetic rotors and stator coils, allowing it to output greater holding torque than shorter "pancake" NEMA 17 variants.
: Position control is achieved by tracking the number of input pulses; the rotation angle is directly proportional to the pulse count. eu.aspina-group.com Internal Mechanics and Operation
Bachin controller boards are typically configured to be compatible with the A4988 stepper motor driver. However, if the current demand of your motor is higher than 1.5A per phase, you may need to use an external driver.
When power is applied, the stepper driver energizes specific coils within the stator. This creates a highly focused north and south magnetic pole layout. Because the teeth on the rotor are slightly offset from the teeth on the stator, the rotor is forced to rotate a minute distance (exactly 1.8 degrees) to align its teeth with the opposing magnetic field of the active stator coils.
Its lightweight nature reduces carriage inertia on X and Y gantries. This allows for high-velocity directional changes during raster imaging without introducing ghosting artifacts.
The Bachin 424015A is a , a type often compared to servo motors . Here’s a brief comparison:
