BLDC motor, gearhead, and encoder from a single source
maxon motor introduces the world's first steam sterilizable encoder ENX EASY. It is available in an incremental (1024 counts) and an absolute version (4096 steps) for diameters of 13 and 16 mm and is designed for 1000 autoclave cycles.
The encoder can be integrated into the brushless drives ECX 13 and ECX 16 SPEED without increasing the length. When the gearheads GPX 13 and GPX 16 SPEED are added to the combination, our customers receive a fully sterilizable positioning system.
High Speed ECX motors
maxon's ECX series of brushless motors are compact, extremely high speed and smooth running. Combined with their ability to withstand up to 2000 autoclave cycles, this makes them ideally suited for use in medical power tools.

Key features
- up to 120,000 rpm
- up to 104 W
- up to 2000 autoclave cycles
- smooth running
Gearheads for high torque
maxon GPX gearheads are low-noise with low-backlash. The planetary gearheads are suitable for transmitting both high torque and high speed. Easily customized and configured online.
