Steps Per MM Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Steps Per MM is:

$NS/MM = OS/MM \cdot \left( \frac{100}{D} \right)$

Where:

Steps per MM are a measure of the amount of distance in millimeters that a 3-D printer travels per step made by the printer.

Let's say your old steps per MM (OS/MM) is 80 and the distance traveled (D) is 50 mm. Using the formula:

$NS/MM = 80 \cdot \left( \frac{100}{50} \right) = 160$

So, the new steps per MM (NS/MM) would be 160.
