@DIY3D:

Hello everybody

I would like to build my own 3D printer. The construction is finished, now the electronics are still missing. After a long search I have found the duet wifi board. My components idea:

• 1x Y-Axis –> motor with external stepper driver (Leadshine LS 57HS21+DM542)

• 2x independent X-Axis –> motors with external stepper driver (Leadshine LS 57HS21+DM542)

• 1x Z-Axis –> motor with external stepper driver (Leadshine LS 57HS21+DM542)

• 2x bulldog lite extruder –> standard stepper (internal duet driver)

• 2x independent heatbed –> (internal duet)

My Questions:

• Is the duet wifi board suitable for my needs?

• Has anyone already experience with an external motor driver?

Looking forward to your feedback and suggestions

Cool!!!

Great!!!! I follow you I have driver Leadshine DS566 and NEMA 34 engines, is what I have I would like to see how you connect the drivers to the DUET, fantastic project

@Martin_S:

Hi all, quick question, I'm about to have some parts water-cut and need to buy the aluminum sheets.
I wanted to buy MIC6 but it seems that it doesn't exists around here, so what would be a good alloy for the heated bed?

6061? 5083? 7xxx? other?

Thanks in advance
Martin

I do not know if he already solved it, I'm new here. Undoubtedly I would choose aleaceon 6061, you just have to think about which temple T will ask for it, 6061 is used in aircraft, it is secret is the temple, in T4 it would be well machined well.

Hi, I'm new here and wanted to know if someone connected a DUET to driver Leadshine 556 or higher? Thank you.
