NEMA 17 Stepper Motor

The NEMA 17 Stepper Motor is a type of stepper motor commonly used in 3D printers for precise control of movement. It features a 1.8-degree step angle, providing 200 steps per revolution, and is known for its reliability and accuracy. The motor typically operates at a voltage range of 3-12V and a current rating of 1-2A, depending on the specific model. It has a standard faceplate size of 1.7 inches (43.2 mm), which is where the '17' in its name comes from.

Lifespan: The expected lifespan of a NEMA 17 Stepper Motor is typically around 10,000 hours of operation, depending on usage conditions and maintenance.
