Pan Tilt Unit/Positioner

Pan Tilt Unit/Positioner

The pan-tilt positioner, also known as a pan-tilt head or pan-tilt unit (PTU), is a two-axis (pan and tilt) electromechanical positioning device designed to provide precise and stable angular motion in the horizontal and vertical directions. It is widely used across multiple fields, including traditional video surveillance, as well as emerging applications such as drone detection and countermeasure systems, long-range monitoring, and multi-sensor platforms.

Driven by continuous research and development, our pan-tilt units have been continuously upgraded with advanced control and mechanical technologies. These include preset positions, cruise paths, pattern scanning, guard positions, position query and feedback, absolute angle control, repeatable positioning, and high-precision worm gear transmission. Combined with ultra-slow speed control for long-range video surveillance, high positioning accuracy, and corrosion-resistant powder coating, our PTUs deliver stable and reliable performance in harsh outdoor environments, with protection ratings up to IP66.

Today, as a reputable Pan Tilt Unit supplier and one of the trusted surveillance camera suppliers, we provide a comprehensive range of pan-tilt heads to customers worldwide, covering small, medium, and large sizes, with payload capacities ranging from 3.5 kg to 200 kg. In addition, our deep customization services—including mechanical structure, load capacity, control interfaces, and environmental adaptation—are highly recognized and trusted by global customers.
