How to Choose the Right Stepper Motor for a DIY 3D Printer?

Post by Diane » 19 Dec 2025, 03:44

Hi everyone! I'm building a 3D printer and I plan to buy a stepper motor online from skysmotor. Which models (e.g., NEMA 17) would you recommend for the X/Y/Z axes? Is it better to buy pre-wired cables or separate cables? Also, how can I check compatibility with Arduino/RAMPS boards? Thank you so much for your tips!
