Geared motor and stepper motor both belong to the speed reduction transmission equipment, the difference is that the transmission source or gear box (reducer) will be different between the two, the following details of the difference between geared motor and stepper motor.
Geared motor refers to the integration of reducer and motor (motor), this assembly integration can also be called gear motor or gear motor, usually by the reducer production plant, development, design, manufacturing, integrated assembly and reducer motor integrated complete sets of supply; geared motor applications such as mining, ports, lifting, construction, transportation, locomotives, communications, textiles, oil, energy, electronics, semiconductors, machinery, automotive, industrial automation. semiconductor, machinery, automotive, industrial automation, robotics and other fields.
Geared motors are divided into the following categories according to their types.
1.High power gear motor
2. Coaxial helical geared motor
3. Parallel shaft helical gear motor
4. Spiral bevel gear motor
5.YCJ series gear motor
6.DC geared motor
7.Cycloid geared motor
8.Harmonic gear motor
9.Three ring geared motor
10.Planetary gear motor
11.Worm gear motor
12.Micro geared motor
13.Hollow cup geared motor
14.Stepping geared motor
15.Bevel gear motor
16.Vertical gear motor
17.Horizontal gear motor
Geared motor features: compact structure, small size, low noise, precision, strong bearing capacity, transmission classification tight system, wide range of deceleration, low energy consumption, transmission efficiency and other characteristics.

Stepper motor is a kind of induction motor, its working principle is the use of electronic circuit, the DC power into a time-sharing power supply, multi-phase timing control current, with this current for the stepper motor power supply, stepper motor to work properly, the actuator is a time-sharing power supply for the stepper motor, multi-phase timing controller; equipped with a reduction gear box can be integrated and assembled into a stepper gear motor, wider applications.
Stepper motor classification.
1. Reactive: There are windings on the stator and the rotor is composed of soft magnetic material. Simple structure, low cost, small step angle, but poor dynamic performance, low efficiency, high heat generation, reliability is difficult.
2. Permanent magnet type: permanent magnet type stepper motor rotor made of permanent magnet material, the number of rotor and the number of stator is the same. It is characterized by good dynamic performance and high output torque, but this motor has poor precision and large step angle.
3. Hybrid: Hybrid stepper motor combines the characteristics of reactive and permanent magnet type, which has multi-phase winding on the stator and permanent magnet material on the rotor, with multiple small teeth on both the rotor and stator to mention the step torque accuracy. Its characteristics are large output torque, good dynamic performance, small step angle, but the structure is complex and relatively more costly.
Stepper motors can be divided into reactive stepper motors, permanent magnet stepper motors, hybrid stepper motors, single-phase stepper motors, planar stepper motors and other types from their structural form, in China's stepper motors used in reactive stepper motors.
Stepper motor can be equipped with gear reducer, planetary gear box, worm gear box assembled into a reduction device, such as stepper geared motor, planetary stepper geared motor and so on. These stepper geared motors have small specifications, low noise, precision and long service life, and are used in car starters,, electronic products, security field, smart home, communication antenna, industrial automation, robotics and other fields.
