Rollvis SA
Rollvis SA is a Geneva-area manufacturer of planetary roller screws, spanning 3.5-210 mm shaft diameters for aerospace and medical motion systems.
Rollvis SA is a Swiss manufacturer of planetary roller screws headquartered in Plan-les-Ouates, in the Geneva metropolitan area long known as a center of high-precision watchmaking and mechanical engineering. Founded in 1970, the company has operated for more than five decades supplying linear-motion components to aerospace, space, defense, medical-device, semiconductor, and industrial-machinery customers, and it maintains an ISO 9001:2015 and EN/AS9100:2018 certified quality system alongside an in-house R&D department.
The product range covers five roller-screw families. The RV series is the general-purpose planetary roller screw, produced in shaft diameters from 3.5 to 210 mm with leads from 1.0 to 50 mm and dynamic load ratings from 3.9 kN to 3,800 kN; the heavy-duty HRV variant starts at 60 mm shaft diameter for higher peak loads and longer service life. The RVI inverted roller screw is built for space-constrained installations such as automotive robotic-welding guns, with shaft diameters from 8 to 100 mm and leads from 1 to 16 mm in a sealed, fully integrated housing. The RVR recirculating roller screw targets high-precision applications such as grinding machinery and scientific instruments, spanning 8 to 125 mm shaft diameters with leads as small as 0.25 mm that the company states can achieve 1-2 micron positioning accuracy, and dynamic load ratings from 7.3 kN to 986 kN. The RVD differential roller screw is a custom-engineered design built to order for each customer application, capable of leads approaching zero millimeters and positioning resolution the company describes as sub-micron to nanometer scale. Rollvis also supplies BU support bearing units using 7300-series angular-contact ball bearings in bore diameters from 12 to 100 mm.
Rollvis distributes through a worldwide network of representatives and describes itself as operating at human scale, with direct, responsive customer service rather than as a mass-volume supplier. Because the RVD line is engineered per customer specification, and the company markets build-to-order roller screws alongside its catalog lines, Rollvis undertakes custom manufacturing engagements in addition to standard product sales.
