About Precision Technology USA
Based in a 50,000 square-foot-facility in Roanoke, Virginia, Precision Technology prides itself on being an innovative, responsive, solution-based manufacturer and supplier of industrial linear motion actuators for an extensive range of automation, machinery, material handling and positioning applications. At the core of Precision Technology’s product range is the renowned and patent protected WIESEL™ linear actuators which are making a difference in automation environments across the continent with faster speeds at longer strokes.
But the products go much further. There is the VERSARam high performance ram style actuator, ideal for replacing hydraulics with a clean, low maintenance and cost effective electromechanical solution. For heavier requirements, Precision Technology excels with planetary roller screws – the technology of the future, and a full line of linear tables. With a full range of ball screws, both rolled and ground, and trapezoidal screws, Precision Technology has every possibility of meeting your application requirements.
Supplementing the excellent product line is the people with the expertise to assist you in selecting the very best solution for your needs in each application.
Products
Rodless Actuators:
Precision Technology WIESEL™ linear drive units guarantee the optimum solution of technology and economy for every drive task due to their high loads and moments. Precision Technology WIESEL™ mechanical linear drive units have played a leading part in plant engineering for many years thanks to their innovative design details. With its comprehensive product range, Precision Technology has the right linear drive unit in the right size for every application. All our linear drive units have a Precision Technology high-precision ball screw or toothed belt drive. The different types and sizes can be combined with customer supplied servo motors and servo amplifiers to implement single and multiple axis systems. The high performance and modular design make it possible to replace a large number of individual components, thus permitting modular systems with lower costs and shorter lead times. All of our products can be modified for application in your system. In-house research, development, design and production are backed by our Total Quality Management guarantee to ensure that our products and accessories meet the highest possible standards.

Linear Tables:
Precision Technology Linear Tables are linear units that can be easily controlled manually or commanded by CNC. Due to their lightness and ease of application they are very useful elements for mechanization and handling in automated and robotic systems. In combination with a rotary device a fourth axis for radial positioning can be provided.
All Precision Technology’s Linear Tables are equipped with high precision recirculating ball guideways allowing smooth and low noise operation. Likewise, depending on the positioning tolerance and travel speed, high precision rolled or ground ball screws can be incorporated.
These Linear Tables are modular elements that can be assembled on one, two or three axes. This universal option offers a simple solution to most applications, allowing at the same time the transfer of heavy loads in an optimum way due to its guiding system.
