NEMA Stepper Motor Specification Reference Chart

(NEMA Frame Sizes vs. Actual Dimensions)

NEMA refers to the flange mounting dimension standard established by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) of the United States. The NEMA number represents the side length of the motor’s front mounting flange, expressed in inches multiplied by 10 (e.g., NEMA 23 corresponds to a 2.3-inch square flange).

The key dimensional parameter is the diagonal distance between the centers of the mounting holes on the front flange, measured in inches. This value is frequently converted into millimeters for practical use and is widely adopted as the primary reference dimension for motor procurement and selection.

NEMA Size	Flange Size (mm)	Inch Size
NEMA 6	≈ 14 × 14 mm	0.56"
NEMA 8	≈ 20 × 20 mm	0.8"
NEMA 11	≈ 28 × 28 mm	1.1"
NEMA 14	≈ 35 × 35 mm	1.4"
NEMA 16	≈ 39 × 39 mm	1.6"
NEMA 17	≈ 42 × 42 mm	1.7"
NEMA 23	≈ 57 × 57 mm	2.3"
NEMA 24	≈ 60 × 60 mm	2.4"
NEMA 28	≈ 71 × 71 mm	2.8"
NEMA 34	≈ 86 × 86 mm	3.4"
NEMA 39	≈ 99 × 99 mm	3.9"
NEMA 42	≈ 110 × 110 mm	4.2"

Motors with the same NEMA size can have different body lengths, holding torque, current ratings, and shaft options, depending on the design.

Hybrid Stepper Motor Torque–Speed Curve

1️⃣ Rated power is usually not a primary parameter
Because output power varies with speed and load, hybrid stepper motors are typically evaluated using the torque–speed curve rather than a fixed power rating.

2️⃣ Torque decreases as speed increases
Due to winding inductance, back EMF, and driver voltage limitations, available torque drops at higher speeds—this is a typical stepper motor behavior.

3️⃣ Maximum torque is available at low speed
Near standstill, the motor delivers its highest torque (holding or low-speed torque), making it ideal for positioning, clamping, and frequent start-stop applications.

4️⃣ High-speed operation increases the risk of step loss
As speed rises and torque margin decreases, the motor may lose synchronization if the load demand exceeds the available torque.

5️⃣ The recommended operating speed is generally below 600 RPM
Within this range, hybrid stepper motors offer a good balance of torque margin, stability, and system reliability.

FAQ About Hybrid Stepper Motors

What is the size range of your hybrid stepper motors?

We offer hybrid stepper motors ranging from NEMA 6 to NEMA 42, covering a wide variety of torque and application requirements.

Why should I choose a stepper motor instead of a servo motor?

Although stepper motors offer lower precision than servo motors, they are more cost-effective and easier to control. Stepper motors can operate with open-loop control, and for the same frame size, their cost is typically several times lower than that of servo motors.

Can hybrid stepper motors be customized?

Yes. We support customization of windings, voltage, current, shaft type, cables, encoder interfaces, and gearboxes to meet specific application needs.

Do hybrid stepper motors require encoders?

In most applications, open-loop control is sufficient. Encoders are recommended only for applications requiring position feedback or enhanced protection against step loss.

How do I select the right hybrid stepper motor for my application?

Motor selection depends on required torque, speed, installation size, operating voltage, and control method. Our engineering team can provide professional selection support based on your application.

Are hybrid stepper motors suitable for high-speed operation?

Hybrid stepper motors are best suited for low- to medium-speed applications. As speed increases, available torque decreases, and the risk of step loss rises. The recommended operating speed is typically below 600 RPM.

Can hybrid stepper motors be used with gearboxes?

Yes. Combining a hybrid stepper motor with a planetary or worm gearbox can significantly increase output torque, reduce speed, and improve overall system stability.

What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

There are no minimum order quantity (MOQ) requirements from our side. However, please note that customized components must comply with our material supplier’s established MOQ specifications. For detailed requirements and pricing specifics, kindly refer to the attached quotation document.

What is the lead time for samples and orders?

For sample orders, the lead time is typically 7-10 days. For larger bulk orders, the lead time varies based on the order quantity. For example, orders of 10,000 pieces generally take 20-25 days to process.

How do we handle shipments?

For samples or small orders, we typically use door-to-door services like DHL, FedEx, or UPS, or you can provide your own international shipping account to handle the collection. For larger bulk orders, we can arrange sea or air freight depending on your preference. As for who covers the freight costs, it depends on the Incoterms agreed upon between us.
