I salvaged these from an Multifunction Copier.

I can t find any info on the model number but it has on it:

17PU-H324-G5ST
2.9V 2.4OHM
NO. T7112-02
MINEBEA MATSU****A
MOTOR CORPORATION

WILL THESE HAVE ENOUGH TORQUE TO MOVE THE XY AXIS FOR A PLOTTER?

THANKS

That depends...
How heavy are the parts to be moved?
How fast do you want it to move/accelerate?
How much force will be required to cut the material?

You may want to look for some motors that are a bit larger.

Stepper Motors has some good info on how to figure out what you need.
