Applied Motion Products HT17-154 Stepper Motor

HT17-154 is a high-torque two-phase hybrid stepper motor from Applied Motion Products, designed for compact, precise positioning in automation and robotics. This unit is built on the HT17 family and uses a NEMA 17 frame, making it a common choice for small—but demanding—motion tasks. A documented upgrade path for greater torque is pairing HT17-154 with a planetary gearhead; for example, the 17PL0160 gearhead (16:1) is a known compatible option that employs a 1/2" (0.5 in) shaft, enabling higher output torque at reduced speeds without increasing the motor’s overall footprint. This configuration suits applications such as precise rotary-to-linear actuation, small CNC axes, and automated handling where repeatable steps and compact form factor are important. The HT17 series is designed to work with Applied Motion drives and compatible stepper controllers, helping ensure reliable, coordinated motion in multi-axis systems. Exact electrical specifications, mounting options, and torque ratings vary by configuration; the HT17-154 configuration should be verified in the official datasheet to confirm current, resistance, inductance, and inertia values, as well as available gearhead options. For applications requiring synchronized control across axes, this motor is commonly used with STR-series drives to deliver consistent positioning and dependable performance in factory automation, robotics, and educational automation setups.
