Laboratory robots: the maxon motor drive solution.Across the many and varied robotics applications be they surgical, UAV, humanoid, collaborativeor industrial robots, maxon motor offers motor and drive solutions.

One special type of robot found in a laboratory is the Pipetting machine. Used by small molecular biologylabs that require flexible liquid handlers through to large scale active-ingredient screening by multinationalpharmaceutical companies, the one common trait of these machines is the speed and position-critical dis-pensing actions. Handling hundreds of samples all at once, some equipped with numerous pipettingheads, the speed of these machines is increasing and the fluid quantities dispensed is becoming smallerand smaller. Essential to this is a highly dynamic and precise drive.

The maxon motor solution

Especially suited to this task offering very low instances of inertia and ironless windings with falter-freemovements. The brushed DCX motor. Low noise output. Configurable to a planetary gearhead andencoder - the GPX 12 and ENX 10 EASY Encoder. This combination can be configured online andshipped in 11 days. The motor has a high overload capacity, is small in diameter for space criticalmachines, has a linear curve for minute control characteristics and a high level of precision up to 1024counts per turn.
