Construction work has been in progress at maxon headquarters in Sachseln (Switzerland) since 2020. maxon’s original building from 1961 was demolished and replaced by a new state-of the-art facility with twice the production space than was previously offered. The relocation to the new building will take place in the later part of 2021 and be completed by the end of the year. The products involved are maxon’s pancake DC motors, EC cylindrical motors, X-Drives DC motors (DCX and ECX motors), as well as their assemblies.
