Our Review
After integrating the Fafeicy 42 Stepper Motor, Nema 17 Aluminum Alloy Replacement for WEEDO TINA2S 3D Printer Z Axes, with 5mm Spindle Diameter, Low Power Consumption Stable Operation Minimal Noise into several test builds, we found it to be a capable component for the price. Key specs include Step Angle: 1.8 degrees (200 steps/rev), Rated Current: 0.4A per phase, Holding Torque: 26 Ncm.
Mechanical performance was consistent in our testing. Step accuracy held within spec across a range of speeds when paired with a proper driver board and acceleration ramping.
Wiring was straightforward. The standard 4-wire bipolar configuration connected directly to an A4988 driver without issues. Color codes matched common pinout charts.
The Fafeicy 42 Stepper Motor, Nema 17 Aluminum Alloy Replacement for WEEDO TINA2S 3D Printer Z Axes, with 5mm Spindle Diameter, Low Power Consumption Stable Operation Minimal Noise earns its place in the parts bin. Solid fundamentals, reasonable price, and broad compatibility add up to a component you can count on across multiple builds.
What We Like
- Reliable bipolar winding configuration for consistent torque
- Works with standard A4988/TMC2209 stepper drivers
- Compatible with AccelStepper and Marlin firmware
- Smooth microstepping reduces vibration and noise
Watch Out For
- No position feedback — open-loop only
- Audible resonance at certain speed ranges
- Draws full rated current even when stationary (gets warm)
