maxon at Hannover Messe 2025: New Precision Drives, Flexible Controls & Integrated Robotics

From robotics to industrial automation to medical technology – precise drive solutions are essential for high-performance systems. maxon will be exhibiting at the upcoming Hannover Messe 2025, March 31 to April 4, and will be showcasing new products that open up additional opportunities for engineers and developers.

Shaft gearheads: Compact design with high precision
With the new backlash-free "Strain Wave" shaft gearheads of the GSW series, maxon is expanding its portfolio for high-precision drives. The GSW 55 A and GSW 62 A models offer high torque transmission in a compact design and are particularly suitable for robotics and automation applications. The backlash-free gearing ensures precise positioning – a crucial feature for dynamic and precise movements in high-end mechanical engineering and automation technology.




ESCON2 & MicroMACS6: Flexible Motor & Motion Controllers
With the ESCON2 servo controllers, maxon offers high-performance solutions for dynamic speed control that are extremely smooth running – even for drives without high-resolution encoders. The expanded portfolio includes options ranging from the compact ESCON2 Nano 24/2 (48/144 W) to the powerful ESCON2 Compact 60/30 (1800/3600 W). The drive controllers are designed for a variety of applications and offer high efficiency as well as a wide range of interfaces for control.

In addition, maxon will be presenting the MicroMACS6 Motion Controller, a programmable unit for up to six axes. This extremely compact controller enables complex motion sequences and is particularly suitable for precise automation applications.




HEJ Joint: Integrated Drive System for Robotics
Another highlight is the High Efficiency Joint (HEJ), a modular system for robotics applications and exoskeletons. The integration of the motor, transmission, electronics, and sensors in a single unit significantly reduces the development effort. The system, currently available in the HEJ 70 and HEJ 90 variants, is characterized by a compact design, high dynamics, and modern impedance control with integrated torque measurement and facili-tates the construction of modular robot systems.




Technology with a history
For more than six decades, maxon has been developing high-precision drive systems for demanding applications. At the Hannover Messe, maxon will not only be showcasing the latest developments in drive technology, but also some historical products that provide insights into the technological evolution of drive technology.
