Robots that use the NEMA 17 stepper motor
The stepper motor size with a 1.7 inch (42 mm) faceplate, used in 3D printers and in printed desktop arms.
4 robots in the atlas list it in their bill of materials, 10 units across the rows below. Quantities are what each source lists; a row can be a set or kit, so read the row name with its number.

How this list is built
BOM rows that name a NEMA 17 stepper (including geared steppers). Separate gearbox sets are not counted.
A row counts when its part name names the NEMA 17, or when its specification does and the part name is generic (a compute board, a servo set). Nothing is inferred beyond the row text: a robot that uses the part but does not list it in its bill of materials is not here.

Renders come from each project's own source files.
