Description
A stepper motor designed for 3D printers typically features a pulley attached to its shaft. The pulley allows for a mechanical advantage, enabling the motor to drive larger or heavier components, such as the carriage or extruder, with precision and control. These motors are essential components in 3D printers, responsible for controlling the movement of the print head and ensuring accurate layer deposition.
