Motors very loud

dden

I know there are already a lot of people who addressed this but after reading the forum for a day I still can't get the motors silent. There are very loud when moving but also in idle mode. I have the duetwifi on a ender3 pro. Two weeks ago I also got the ender 3 v2 and those motors are hardly noticable. I don't know what I am doing wrong so maybe someone could give me some suggestions. I tried altering the current to the motors, I tried https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Reducing_Stand-Still_Noise but with no effect.

Two weeks ago I also got the ender 3 v2 and those motors are hardly noticable.

ender 3 v2 uses tmc2208 (or tmc2209) drivers. the duet wifi uses tmc2660.

the tmc2208 support stealthchop2. that is what makes them silent.
the tmc2660 does not.

the duet maestro or the duet 3 have drivers that support stealthchop2.

Well that sucks. I bought the duet board because it was advertised to have silent steppers. Since I only have wifi in my room, I thought it a good idea to buy the wifi board. I think I will put in a creality silent board, which is a pity because I really liked the reprap software, way easier to configure than Marlin.

What motor currents have you tried? Keep in mind you're limited to 100ma increments.

I've found the Creality motors to have a lot of whine with the duet drivers as well. I think Creality has just chosen motors that work well with their drivers.

dden

So maybe it is better I buy a few new stepper motors? Which ones do you recommend? Oh and I tried lots of different currents and I know I need to use 100 ma increments, I think I started at 500 and went up to 1000

if they are the same motors as the ender 3 the specs are here

I don't think you have told us which Duet you are using, or what VIN voltage you are using.

Stock, the ender3 pro is 24v.
