Active implants Many therapies are more effective when applied inside the body than from the outside. These include targeted dosage of medication, as well as support for the heart and muscle functions – tasks that can be performed with high efficiency using maxon drives. Professional project organization and a proven risk management system makes it possible to efficiently implement medical technology projects in risk class IIb + III. The production processes, production systems, inspection systems and documentation comply with highest quality guidelines.
Exoskeletons / prosthetics People with disabilities face many challenges in everyday life. Tasks such as climbing stairs or opening a door can be a big hurdle. For many years now, maxon has been investing its technical solutions and know-how into making life easier for these people. As part of this commitment, we have developed motors and system solutions with torque and weight optimized for use in exoskeletons and prosthetics. Additionally, our interdisciplinary engineering enables us to develop tailored solutions for special applications. In the future, maxon will continue to promote the development of products and system solutions for exoskeletons and prosthetics.
Drive components for medical technology applications must meet extremely demanding requirements.
Surgical power tools In many surgical procedures, surgeons use battery-operated power tools when they need to mill or saw through bone or drill holes. This is frequently the case in trauma surgery, if hands or feet are involved. Power tools have also proven their worth in hip joint surgery. With the EC-4pole series, maxon offers the perfect drive solution for this purpose. This brushless electric motor has two pole pairs, resulting in a very high power density and high torque, and can withstand 1,000 autoclave cycles.

SN EN ISO 9001 SN EN ISO 9001 specifies the requirements to a quality management system (process approach) that an organization has to meet in order to provide products and services that meet the customer expectations as well as comply with applicable regulatory requirements. Simultaneously, the management system has to be subject to continuous improvement. SN EN ISO 14001 Is an internationally accepted quality norm for environmental management systems (EMS). It covers environmental-relevant processes and procedures in a company, requiring a company’s management and employees to adopt environmentally-compatible behavior and constantly seek to improve its procedures and documentation. EN 9100 This is an internationally accepted quality standard of the aerospace industry. It requires companies and employees to reduce potential risks in the aerospace industry to a minimum by structuring the design and manufacturing processes accordingly. At maxon, this standard is applied for customer-specific products on request – except for A-max motors and controllers. SN EN ISO 13485 Is an internationally accepted quality norm for medical products that requires management and staff to ensure that the design and manufacture of medical products minimizes the potential risks for patients. Traceability of processes and raw materials is also ensured. At maxon, this standard is applied for customer-specific products on request.

Quality management Only performance counts
EU Directives maxon products are designed for installation in complete devices and are considered incomplete machines according to EU Directive 2006/42/EC (Machinery Directive). They are designed to be installed in machines or other incomplete machines and are therefore not CE marked. It is the responsibility of the end device manufacturer to identify the relevant directives and issue a declaration of conformity. maxon confirms compliance with the following directives of the European Union. Exceptions are described on the respective product pages. 1907/2006/EU REACH 2012/19/EU WEEE 2018/891/EU Waste Framework Directive 2011/65/EU RoHS incl. 2015/863/EU UL and CSA Certain applications and markets require UL- or CSA-certified motors and drives. maxon's standard catalog products do not have such certification. However, we are able to certify our motors and drives in accordance with UL or CSA standards. Please contact your local maxon partner for more information. Drives manufactured by maxon can be absolutely relied upon even under the most difficult conditions – they have for example been in use on Mars for years. But maxon DC motors do not only do their job in space, they also function in tough conditions on and deep below the surface of the Earth flawlessly and efficiently. The quality management system of maxon is an integral part of the overall management sys- tem. The operational and organizational structures, the powers and responsibilities, as well as the process and procedure assessments are documented for all employees. The quality management system is enacted, maintained and periodically verified.

The selection of high-precision microdrives
Formulae Handbook maxon academy
e author, Dr. Urs Kafader — born 1963 in Sarnen, Switzerland, was awar- d a physics degree and MBA from the Federal Institute of Technology, ETH rich, and a doctorate from the UHA Mulhouse in France — started his career the ETH Solid State Physics Department working on the epitaxy of semicon- ctor heterostructures. With a genuine interest in the impartion of technical owledge, he attended lectures on general didactics and specialized training r technology education. For more than ten years, Dr. Kafader has been res- nsible for technical training at maxon motor. In this function, he has presented any training courses and seminars for the maxon staff and customers. Further- ore, he is involved in the review of product documentation and also developed e maxon selection program.
