Abstract
A stepping motor includes a rotor having a rotor magnet fixed to a rotating shaft, a plurality of coil bobbins where coils are wound, a stator yoke group having a plurality of stator yokes each of which surrounds each of the plurality of coil bobbins in an axial direction and a radial direction of the rotating shaft, and the plurality of stator yokes each having pole teeth alternately arranged in a circumferential direction around the rotating shaft so as to be opposed to a side surface of the rotor magnet, and a magnetic attractive force generating member configured to attract the rotor magnet to the axial direction of the rotating shaft by a magnetic attractive force, and a magnetic center of the rotor magnet and a magnetic center of the stator yoke group coincide with each other.
