About Us
What We Do
Established in 1998, ABTech is a global company that provides ultra-precision motion systems for customer applications that demand sub-micron accuracies.
ABTech’s air-bearing technology provides the highest accuracy and nearly absolute repeatability with no contacting parts to wear over time, therefore delivering years of reliable and maintenance-free operation. Our willingness to customize, along with a wide variety of products and experiences, gives us the flexibility to provide cost-effective, application-specific solutions.

Our Core Principles
Choose Our Attitude
We have the power to choose our response to difficult situations, and as a result, we find opportunities we never imagined possible.
Support Each Other
The glue in our humanity is in being fully present for one another. We are not tuned out, distracted, or focused on the past or future, but simply in the present moment.
Make Their Day
We look for ways to "make someone's day" through small acts of kindness or
unforgettable engagements, turning routine encounters into special memories.
Have Fun
We enjoy what we're doing and working with each other; co-workers, customers, and vendors alike. Having fun sparks creativity, productivity, and job satisfaction.
See What Our Customers are Saying
– Morgan Hedges,
Post-Doctoral Research Associate, Princeton University
“We purchased the manual spin version of the AT200 air bearing to use in our optical assembly station. It works wonderfully and provides us with the accuracy and stability we need to build high-precision space telescopes. Further, when an adjustment knob was bent, ABTech quickly replaced it so we could get back up and running immediately. We are very pleased with the product, service, and overall quality of experience we received from AB Tech.”

Client
“Peak Nano needed a system to precisely measure the refractive index of plastic film to ensure final lenses met customer specifications. The system developed by ABTech to conduct this measurement was completed on time, to specification, and on budget. This one-of-a-kind system robotically picks up thin film, measures the refractive index, and records the data in a data management system. We could not be happier with the work ABTech did on this device!”

Why choose us
The ABTech Standard
When sub-micron accuracy is a requirement, industry leaders turn to ABTech for more than just hardware. We act as a true engineering partner, combining decades of technical expertise with total manufacturing control to deliver specialty designed solutions that perform in the most extreme environments—from clean-room laboratories to the South Pole.
We use 2 ABTech air-bearing spindles with tip/tilt and centering capability in our facility. These units are used for precision assembly and final metrology. We have never had an issue with either one, and the ABTech team is a great partner for us. We will be adding more systems as our young organization continues to grow.Jayson TiersonPresident
