At maxon, we develop and build high-precision electric drive systems that are among the best in the world. We combine brushed and brushless DC motors, gearheads, sensors, and controllers into complete mechatronic drive systems.
Parvalux, a maxon company, designs and manufactures a wide range of standard AC, PMDC and BLDC electric motors. These motors can be combined with matching gearboxes and are ideal for use in material handling solutions. Our gear motors are ideal for use in conveyors, AGVs, sorting machines, pallet and tray shuttles, warehouse tugs, ASRS storage and retrieval systems, and much more.
