Maximauler was a Heavyweight robot which would have appeared in the 1997 US Robot Wars competition. However, Maximauler was one of several robots which for whatever reason never made it into the arena, having dropped out for unknown reasons. Maximauler was sponsored by the Instrument Society of America.
Being a Heavyweight, it can be assumed that Maximauler was to battle in the Heavyweight Face Off for the 1997 competition, however, for reasons unknown, it dropped out despite being in the line up for the show.
