Description
Minebea T6530 23LM-C720-02 NEMA 23 Bipolar Stepper Motor 12V 1.5A 8 Ohm 1.8 Deg
The Minebea T6530 is a two-phase bipolar stepper motor in the standard NEMA 23 frame, rated at 12V DC with a 1.5A per-phase current draw and 8.0 Ohm winding resistance. It steps at 1.8° per step (200 steps per revolution), the most common resolution used in precision motion control. The unit carries Minebea type designation 23LM-C720-02 and customer part number 154071-001, and was branded for distribution under the Astrosyn label.

Applications
NEMA 23 bipolar stepper motors like the Minebea T6530 are widely used in CNC machines, 3D printers, laser engravers, robotic arms, automated laboratory instruments, and precision positioning stages. The 1.8°/step angle is the industry standard for open-loop motion control, offering a good balance of resolution and torque without the need for encoder feedback. Bipolar winding configuration (versus unipolar) delivers higher torque for a given frame size, making this motor well suited to medium-duty axis drives. Minebea (now MinebeaMitsumi) has been a major supplier of precision stepper motors to OEM equipment manufacturers across industrial automation, medical instrumentation, and office automation markets. The T6530 in NEMA 23 was commonly specified in mid-range CNC and laboratory automation platforms from the 1990s onward, and the NEMA 23 standard remains current and widely supported by today's stepper drivers.
This Minebea T6530 NEMA 23 Bipolar Stepper Motor was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in service. It has been visually inspected and shows normal wear consistent with prior use — the body and flange are intact with light surface marks typical of used industrial motors. The shaft and mounting flange appear undamaged, and the 5-lead ribbon connector is present and intact. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
