Hello Ralph
Am I correct to assume you mean torque when you say work? They are geared down to move scopes. Some hefty bits of kit with counterweights, but as well balanced as the specific mount can manage so torque can be minimised in a way you can't do when cutting steel.
These smart steppers are new and a 32k integrated encoder and driver is pretty amazing. Obviously the 17 is a popular size to launch with. I imagine other sizes will become available over time.

You can get movement but not much work from a NEMA 17 motor.
