Maxon turns the motor into a smart sensor. Machine learning, physics, and open architecture enable precise, industrial-grade condition monitoring. We’ll show you how the drive specialist is rethinking condition monitoring.

In industrial drive technology, the motor has long been more than just an actuator. It provides valuable information about the condition of the entire system—provided you know how to interpret this data correctly. This is exactly where Maxon comes in with its new solution, Maxon Mind (motion insights and diagnostics). The system uses signals from the motor to draw conclusions about the condition of the drive system and its environment. The development team at Maxon responsible for the project sums up the approach as follows: “The motor is the best sensor in the machine.”
