        Workbee default setting is 2400mA. Maybe its too much for your motors?

            Duet Wifi-s drivers itself are rated to maximum 2.4A, so to get max out of it you should use very good cooling for drivers i guess.

              and theyre rated for at temperature increase of 80C and up to 50C ambient i.e. they'll get hot, real hot. its normal.

              do you need to run such a high current?

                if you run the stepper drivers at 2400ma you will need to actively cool them.
                a can that blows across the underside of the board should do it.

                    cooling the board won't affect the motor temperature just if that was unclear.
