QUICK START GUIDE
For the LGX® Lite PRO
KEEPING THE MOTOR COOL
While we do recommend using a certain current range in order to make sure the extruder has plenty pushing force, it's also an
important consideration to be made when using the extruder in printers with heated chambers. Since the motor has some
inherent self heating you may need to dial back the current in order to make sure the motor doesn't overheat..

The graph shown here is displaying the motor
temperatures at different current levels at idle
operation in a heated chamber. When running,
the motor will become hotter depending on how
much pushing force it has to excert.
Please monitor your motor temperature and
adjust current accordingly. We recommend
keeping the motor outer casing below 105°C in
order to make sure all components remain
operational.
Example: 90°C chamber using 600mA would
result in about 15°C self heating when printing.
This would result in a motor casing at 105°C.
