M200 Motherboard defective stepper driver

Hi there,

our M200s extruder stepper driver is defective, more precisely the stepper driver ic (measured with scope). We need immediate replacement.

  1. There is no spare motherboard available, and I read here in forum that I only get a spare if I send the old MB to Zortrax, is that right?
  2. Easiest and fastest way (for me) would be to exchange the defective stepper driver IC, but the markings are filed away… so I’m afraid no one can/will tell me what ICs are used on Zortrax motherboards?

Regards, Jeromin

Hello…I will check whether I can get hold of a stepper and check out it. I was trusting you would state better believe it they drop straight in however comprehend it isn’t generally that basic.
That is a smooth Benchy. It is a reasonable improvement.

Hello,
I tried everything (extruder cable, extruder pcb board, extruder motor), I changed, tested and tried, I think the problem is definitely from the extruder driver.
I can buy and replace the driver. Can you tell me the name of the driver?

I have the same problem as Mr. Erdinç. Everything works correctly but the extruder driver does not move the motor.
I expect the Zortrax team to guide me as well.

Hi @agocer,

have you replaced any parts that could be responsible for the problem you are facing (extruder motor, cable, PCB etc.)? If you are sure the motor’s driver on the motherboard is at fault - please contact us via support form in order to purchase the component.

Best regards

Yes, I did the cable, pcb and motor controls, they are all intact.
