German Engineering, Based in Munich

Most robotics projects die between the idea and the first thing that works.

Everyone talks about the “robotics revolution”, but most companies still don't know where to start, or how to get from a rough idea to a system that actually works. Maxwell Robotics closes that gap. Founded by robotics engineers from the Technical University of Munich, we design and build custom robotics and automation systems for startups and enterprises: hardware, software, and AI integrations, engineered end-to-end. Whatever the platform, we turn ideas into working systems, not slide decks.

What we build

How we engage, from a first feasibility question to a working machine.

Robotics & Automation Engineering

We design and build custom hardware, mechatronics, and physical automation systems from scratch: early concept sketches, mechanical design, electronics, and systems integration, all the way to a fully integrated, working machine.

Plan Your Build

Software & AI Development

Software and AI are what make a system actually work. We build perception, navigation, and automation stacks for robots and existing hardware platforms, and apply the same toolkit to optimize processes in manufacturing, logistics, and other industries.

Build Your Stack

Consulting & Prototyping

Not sure if your idea is feasible, or what it would take to build it? We run feasibility studies, rapid prototyping, and proof-of-concept builds, giving you a working demo and a clear technical roadmap before you commit to a full build.
