Best Stepper Motor Type for Small Desktop-Size CNC Machine Recommendations

Hi, can you suggest a stepper motor type suitable for a small (desktop-size) CNC machine?

Hi
Below I list some types of stepper motors suitable for this purpose:

NEMA 17: These motors are very common and widely used for small desktop CNC machines. They are compact, lightweight and powerful enough to drive small machines accurately. They are suitable for working with lighter materials, such as plastics, thin wood and PCBs.

NEMA 14: These motors are smaller than NEMA 17 and are ideal for ultra-compact CNC machines or applications where space is limited. They have lower torque and are more suitable for working with lightweight materials.

Also be sure to choose a stepper motor driver that is compatible with the selected motor. A good driver ensures stable and controlled operation of the motor.
