- In practical terms, this means that the coil windings are better utilized in a bipolar than a standard unipolar stepper motor (which only uses 50% of the wire coils at any one time), making bipolar stepper motors more powerful and efficient to run.

- For the same reason, bipolar motors have a high torque output. But it needs more complex circuitry to switch the coils.

- This isn’t an issue because the driver modules do this for us. Nearly all motors for hobby CNC machines are sold as bipolar.
