ROLLON.... Who we are
Founded in 1975 in Milan, Italy, Rollon designs and manufactures linear components, actuators and systems for industrial motion, with a special focus on tailored solutions aimed at innovating and meeting the evolving needs of the market.
Rollon’s solutions are globally adopted in industrial automation, aerospace, medical equipment, material handling, and other sectors where product performance, efficiency and reliability are essential.
The Group
In 2018, Rollon was acquired by The Timken Company and became the flagship brand for linear motion within the Industrial Motion division of Timken.
In 2023, Timken acquired Nadella, Chiavette Unificate, Durbal, Shuton-Ipiranga, and Rosa Sistemi, scaling Rollon’s portfolio and promoting new operational synergies and geographical expansion opportunities.
Thanks to that, Rollon is now able to offer an even more comprehensive product range: from linear components, actuators and systems to ball screws and rotational units.
