maxon

Summary

About

About maxon

maxon engineers complete motion chains for robots, combining brushed and brushless motors, planetary or strain-wave gearheads, encoders, brakes and positioning controllers. Its High Efficiency and High Precision joint families cover torque outputs from very small mechanisms to hundreds of newton-metres, with options for integrated electronics, joint bearings, torque sensing, EtherCAT connectivity and IP67 protection.

EC flat and ECX flat motors provide high torque density in constrained joints, while GPX gearheads and EPOS4 controllers handle reduction, positioning and speed regulation. Customers can buy catalogue components, configurable motor-gearhead combinations or custom mechatronic assemblies. The drives serve humanoids, quadrupeds, mobile manipulators, surgical robots, prostheses, industrial arms and space mechanisms, including motors used in NASA's Perseverance rover sample-handling system.
