Wikipedia Stepper motor

A NEMA 14 stepper motor is a stepper motor with a 1.4 x 1.4 inch (35.6 x 35.6 mm) faceplate. Its size is only a coarse indication of its power. The NEMA 14 is a smaller and neater motor that was used on the Mendel prototype. Compared to a NEMA 17 it needs less space and typically weights less, so it's often seen in small printers, like the Huxley.

Next smaller size is NEMA 11, next bigger size is NEMA 17.
