maxon drives in laser leveling systems.

When it really matters.

Measurement technology also relies on our drive systems. They are used, for instance, in apparatus which measures constructions and ensures precise positioning of lasers. maxon motor is the world's leading supplier of high-precision DC servo motors and drive systems of up to 500 watts. We develop and manufacture brushed and brushless DC motors with the unique ironless maxon winding.
