Axsys Technologies manufactures high performance pan and tilt mechanisms for surveillance, defense and homeland security. Our 40-year history in building state-of-the-art motors and resolvers allows us to build the new industry standard for precision positioners with zero backlash.

Utilizing our brushless torque motors and high accuracy resolvers, directly coupled to our customer's payload provides stable, maintenance-free operation. Axsys' positioners are currently being used in border surveillance, force protection programs and other programs requiring precise sensor positioning.

Optional features include marine package and gyro stabilization.
