The invention discloses a precision-location stepping motor for a micro-stepping instrument, which comprises a shell upper cover (1), a shell lower cover (2), a permanent magnet rotor (3), a primary transmission gear set driven wheel (5), a secondary transmission gear set driving wheel (6), a primary transmission gear set driven wheel rotary shaft (7), a secondary transmission gear set driven wheel (8), a three-level transmission gear set driving wheel (9), a three-level transmission gear set driven wheel (11), a pointer drive shaft (12), an excitation winding coil XA (13), an excitation winding coil XB (14), a coil pin A (15), a coil pin B (16), a coil pin C (17), coil pin D (18), a stator iron core body (19) and the like. The reduction ratio of a three-level reduction gear system is 720:1, and the minimum location resolution is 0.0833 degrees; and the invention realizes micro-stepping rotation on the aspect of structure, does not need an extra drive circuit when in use and is a stepping motor for the instrument ,which has precision location and can enable a point to smoothly move.
