At , maxon will present its complete drive system development and customisation service to aviation suppliers.

Modern aircraft rely on highly integrated electric drive systems to deliver precise control and reliability in demanding operating environments, whether that’s for pilot controls or the cabin air con system.

At Farnborough, maxon’s engineers will present customisation options such as motor windings or specific cabling and harnesses, through to complete actuators and sub-assemblies.

Partnering with maxon not only ensures performance, including optimum torque density and precision, but it also promises reliability, qualified by testing to DO-160 and AS/EN9100 standards.

This engineering approach also reduces demands on internal teams, allowing them to concentrate on overall design integration.

If you're wondering why we've used the image, nearly 50 maxon brushless DC motors are integrated into the Boeing Dreamliner's climate control system alone.

Find out more - join us at the Farnborough International Airshow, 20-24 July, Hall 1, Stand 1053, and talk to maxon engineers Andrew Gibson, maxon UK & Ireland’s Head of Aerospace & Space, along with Johannes Langenbuch, Business Development for maxon’s Aerospace Business Unit, and Claudio Waser, Project Engineer for maxon’s Aerospace Business Unit.

At the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics, surgical robot developers emphasised requirements for increased precision.

As the NHS continues the proliferation of surgical robotics, including expansion of the technology to wider areas of surgery, developers at the event explained the need to prioritise the dexterity and control of robots to optimise the patient outcome.

But, the increased use of robotic surgery is also placing growing demands on the speed of development, all while maintaining reliability and conformance.

The joints that actuate a robot’s motion play a crucial role in surgical precision, and as a result, joint integration is a key aspect of a robot’s overall design and build.

At the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics, maxon UK's lead engineer for the medical sector, Matthew Dean, along with maxon Medical Unit Business Development Engineer Dario Renggli, spoke to robot developers about maxon’s high-precision joints.

In addition to achieving exacting performance, maxon’s robot joints are rigorously tested to conform to the required standards of the surgical environment, increasing the speed and efficiency of robot development to deliver a faster time to market.

Thank you to everyone who visited us at the Hamlyn Symposium on Medical Robotics.

Developing an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle? Discover the latest in high-torque-density propulsion for UAVs at the Farnborough International Airshow.

At FIA 2026, maxon is presenting its UAV propulsion systems, primarily for lightweight craft, based on flat, brushless DC (BLDC) electric motors, electronic speed controllers, and matched propellers.

The propulsion systems optimise thrust while achieving a lightweight, compact footprint, and at FIA, maxon’s engineers will explain the latest developments that are pushing high-torque-density and low weight to the next level.

development: In addition to a flexible range, with motor diameters spanning 22m to 87mm alongside a selection of propeller sizes, maxon’s engineers will explain the full engineering support offered, including customisation.

Customisation will help developers optimise performance characteristics specific to the UAV and its operational requirements, as well as achieving more efficient project delivery and a faster time to market.

To ensure your UAV performs in tough conditions, maxon’s engineering service also includes rigorous testing to maximise reliability and durability.

The testing service ensures protection against ingress and salt spray, temperature extremes and variation, vibration, shock, and crash safety, as well as static thrust and tilt testing.

Join us at the Farnborough International Airshow, 20-24 July, Hall 1, Stand 1053 to discover more.

At the show, you can talk to maxon engineers Andrew Gibson, maxon UK & Ireland’s Head of Aerospace & Space, who will be joined by Johannes Langenbuch, Business Development for maxon’s Aerospace Business Unit, and Claudio Waser, Project Engineer for maxon’s Aerospace Business Unit.

Engineers from across the UK came to maxon UK & Ireland’s Drive Technology Insight 2026.

Held at The British Motor Museum, visiting engineers from a variety of industry sectors attended, all with one thing in common: the reliance on precision drive systems.

With drive technology tech talks from engineering experts including Ronak Samani, Amadeu Placido, Tamas Hertelendi, and Martin Leahy, the event also gave the opportunity for engineers to talk face-to-face about real-world drive system challenges, and handle drive system technology in person.

Visiting engineers were welcomed by maxon UK & Ireland Managing Director William Mason, and we were very happy to receive the support of maxon Group CEO Eugen Elmiger.

maxon UK & Ireland’s next Drive Technology Insight is scheduled for 2028 but meanwhile, you can talk directly to our engineering team for support developing your application.

Precision. Performance. Real-world engineering challenges.

Engineers from across the UK came together for maxon UK & Ireland’s Drive Technology Insight 2026 - a day dedicated to the drive systems advancing innovation.

Held at the British Motor Museum, the event brought together engineers from across industries, all united by one requirement: improving performance with precision drive systems.

From expert-led tech talks with Martin Leahy, Ronak Samani, Amadeu Placido, and Tamas Hertelendi, to hands-on interaction with hardware, the focus was on solving real-world motion challenges.

More importantly, the event created space for something you don’t get over video calls - direct, face-to-face engineering conversations.

Visiting engineers were welcomed by maxon UK & Ireland Managing Director William Mason, and we were very happy to receive the support of maxon Group CEO Eugen Elmiger.

The next Drive Technology Insight lands in 2028, but you don’t have to wait to start the conversation. Watch the highlights from the day and see how engineers are tackling motion challenges head-on.

Aerospace manufacturers can’t compromise on safety and reliability, and this includes the drive systems used across an aircraft.

In aviation, maxon drives are used in systems ranging from cockpit controls through to the landing gear, or valves within the onboard climate system, through to fuel valve actuation.

Whether these systems are critical to maintain safe flight or vital to optimise passenger comfort and safety, reliability is always essential.

That’s why all maxon’s components for aviation are tested according to DO-160G and certified in accordance with EN 9100.

Across aerospace applications, including drones, urban air mobility, and space technology, maxon can design and develop custom drive systems, comprising DC and BLDC motors, gears, sensors, and controls, plus additional components such as brakes, as well as cabling and harnesses.

The result is a complete, tested, and ready-to-integrate actuator and sub-assembly, saving time and resources for aerospace manufacturers, and ensuring optimum performance and reliability.
