17HS1008-01 Nema17 Unipolar-Bipolar Stepper Motor

17HS1008-01 NEMA 17 Stepper Motor

The 17HS1008-01 NEMA 17 stepper motor is an ideal solution for precise motion control in 3D printers, CNC machines, and robotics projects. With compatibility for both unipolar and bipolar wiring, it offers flexible integration options. This compact stepper motor provides high holding torque while maintaining energy efficiency through low current consumption.

What is Unipolar and Bipolar Wiring?

The 17HS1008-01 is a hybrid stepper motor that supports both unipolar and bipolar wiring configurations. These wiring types differ in how the coils are energized and how torque is generated.

This stepper motor includes a total of 6 wires: 4 coil ends and 2 center taps.

Unipolar wiring: All 6 wires are used. Each phase has a center tap, allowing for simpler drive circuits, but typically delivers lower torque.

Bipolar wiring: Only 4 wires are used, leaving the center taps disconnected. This configuration provides higher torque but requires a more advanced driver.

Typical Applications of the 17HS1008-01 Stepper Motor

• Unipolar usage: Suitable for hobby electronics, basic 3D printers, and simple mechanical systems due to its ease of use.
• Bipolar usage: Ideal for professional applications requiring high torque, such as robotic arms, laser CNC machines, and industrial automation systems.
