I managed to get hold of someone at Hunan Keli Motor Co who very helpfully shared this schematic with me for the BJ42D09-20V02 as used on the Creality Sprite extruder (found on the Ender 5 S1). Sharing here as it may be useful for others.

sprite-motor-BJ42D09-20V02

@Avedena according to these specs your table for the rate current for the BJ42D09-20V02 needs updating, resistance should be 1.75, current should be 0.84

creality 회사의 bj42d15-26v12의 stepper motor 정격전압과 정격전류좀 알려주세요 몇 볼트일때 작동하는게 좋은지가 궁금해요 아무리 찾아봐도 안 나와요ㅜㅜ

Einen wunderschönen guten Tag.

Not very helpful, using you native language here isn't it?

Can I use jk42hs40-1204a-02f for extruder?

Anyone know anything about BJ42D09-0v03? I cannot find any source for this revision or data, and can only seem to get it from the "Creality Sprite Pro" package sources. I can't even find a spec sheet from any OEMs. I'm hoping to just replace a failed stepper motor from a more direct source, than paying the ~$100+ for other parts I don't need (in addition to the stepper motor).

Does anyone know if these currents are the RMS current or the true max? I'm finding conflicting info through google

@not-crazyramen the currents listed on the blueprint are max currrent. To find the RMS divide the max current by 1.414. I run my Sprite extruder driven by TMC2209 UART at 600ma. Hope that helps.

Yeah it does. Thanks! Do you know if that's the industry standard for "rated current?"

Not sure exactly how industry determines that.

Not sure exactly how industry determines that.

The manufacturer decides what temperature the motor can tolerate continuously without degradation of the insulation on the motor's windings. They then determine how much current in 100% duty cycle stepping operation will raise the windings to that temperature.

That's the rated current.

Note that my explanation here is simplified a little.

On 3D printers it is usually set 80% of the rated current. Hope that helps.

I can't speak to "usually". It's often as high as 90%, and it can be set much lower to save a little power if you aren't running a race printer. Feel free to adjust it downward until your printer starts losing steps, then back up until the step loss disappears.

Then pop a note into the control board compartment to remind yourself of that adjustment in case you ever get the Need for Speed and want to adjust it higher again.
