These hybrid stepping motors rotate at fixed angles by digitally controlled electronic pulses. The hybrid stepping motors are also used in the paper-feeding devices of printers, copy machines, facsimiles and similar equipment. Hybrid stepping motors combine a rotor with a permanent magnet and a magnetic body using ball bearings.
Hybrid stepping motors manufactured by NMB include standard NEMA sizes 14 to 23, with step angles of 1.8, 3.75, 0.9 and 5.
