Stepping Motors: At how high a temperature can stepping motors be used?
Question 7: At how high a temperature can stepping motors be used?

Answer : The permissible temperature for the coils is 130°C, since the insulation of the motor is Class B. The motor can be used if the motor surface temperature is 100°C or less. Try to use the motor at lowest temperature possible and mount it to a metal plate that is a good heat conductor, since heat does affect the life of the motor’s ball bearings.

Oriental Motor's RKII Series and AR Series are high efficiency types, and produces less heat than other Stepping Motors.
