Difference between Nema23 and Nema24 stepper motors?
-
Hello, everyone.
Recently I've been building my own 3D printer I'm looking to buy stepper motors on the https://www.steppermotor.fr website, there are currently two preferred models, the Nema23 stepper motor has a form factor of 57mm × 57mm and the Nema24 stepper motor has a form factor of 60mm × 60mm. as you can see, the Nema24 stepper motor is slightly larger compared to the Nema23 stepper motor. Nema24 stepper motor is slightly larger than Nema23 stepper motor.
But other than that, what is the difference between them? Which one should I buy? -
Aside from size, steppers can have varying characteristics within a given size.
Choosing a size is just one of the things you have to do.
This is were I usually get my steppers:

Their selection of 24s is slimmer:
