Ok, it’s the same one I use. I assume you have already tried connecting the wires by turning the connector 180 degrees.
Check, just in case, that the motor connector pins correspond to SIG, VCC, GND in that order. By the way, check also the state of the connector pins, to discard that it could be due to a bad contact.
Is the servo motor powered? There is 5V between the center pin of the PT1 pin set and the one closest to the edge of the board?
What Gcode are you using? These are the ones that I use to check the functionality:
M3 S900
– Open gripper
M3 S0
– Close gripperHi erolunal,
What model of servomotor are you using? How it is connected to the PCB?
Hi Kumarrr,
You are trying to attach an image located in a private Google Drive folder, so we can’t see it!
You can use an image upload free service (like this one) and then attach the image againHi Sebas! At my LinkedIn profile you can get as much info as you need about me!
Thanks for the mention 🙂Hola Sebas! En mi perfil de LinkedIn puede encontrar toda la información que necesitas sobre mí!
Gracias por la mención 🙂Hello!
First of all, welcome to Thor family! 🙂
I will be happy to help you. Please ask your questions here, so in the future anyone who has a similar problem will find it helpful.
Hello Emilio,
You can’t imagine how happy I am to know that Thor has been built in one more educational center! 🙂 I hope it has served and can serve in the future to learn and the world of robotics, electronics and 3D printing.
Hope to see your robot in motion and to know what you are going to use it for!
Hello Emilio!
Great job, you have built an awesome Thor, congratulations! Keep us posted on your progress, we want to see how it moves!
Your robot has been registered in the Worldwide Section as the number #27! Welcome to Thor family 🙂
Yeah! That’s the spirit! 😀
Hi Irem!
You are right, I completely forgot about the servo, thanks for noticing!
The servomotor I used in the gripper was the model MG995, like this one.
Only 1 is needed 😉Hope it helps!
Hi Antonio, I just sent you an email 😉
Hi Claudio & Davide!
Welcome to the Thor community:)
Your Thor is really amazing! I’m impressed that you say you had no previous experience in 3D printing, very good job!I’m happy to announce that, as you were saying, your Thor is the 26th in the world and the first in Italy, congratulations!
It is already registered in the Worldwide section.Best regards!
Hi Stefan,
After watching the video and hearing the steppers I think that either the rotation speed or the acceleration has been set too high.
Have you configured the $$ parameters as is described in the Firmware: Installation & Configuration page?If you did, please try to test the motors using the examples in the Testing Firmware section of the same page, and let me know if the result is different 😉
Hi Sebas!
There is no conversion between 12V and 5V. There are 2 completely separate power rails. The 12V one is powered by the 12V power supply and the 5V circuit is powered by the Arduino board, which is powered by the USB port.
Best regards!

No hay conversión entre 12 voltios y 5 voltios. Hay 2 circuitos de alimentación completamente separadas. El de 12V es alimentado por la fuente de alimentación de 12V y el circuito de 5V es alimentado por el arduino, que a su vez es alimentado por el puerto USB.
Saludos!
Yeah, I agree with that. And, in fact, I’m going to change the documentation to recommend using PETG instead of PLA for the printed parts of Thor.
The offer Diego made was in 2017, and at that time PETG was not as common to see.
