About August Steinmeyer

August Steinmeyer GmbH & Co. KG is a German manufacturer of high-precision ball screws, based in Albstadt, Baden-Württemberg, where all production takes place. The company was founded in 1920 as a precision mechanics workshop and initially built its reputation on micrometers; since the 1960s it has specialised in precision ground ball screws, which it now supplies from miniature formats for medical systems to heavy-load designs for machine building. Steinmeyer describes itself as one of the world’s leading ball screw manufacturers, offering diameters from 3 to 125 mm, tolerance classes from P1, multiple nut designs and its ETA+ technology, together with application engineering, lifetime calculations and custom designs for vacuum, cleanroom and high-temperature environments.

Its ball screws are used across high-tech industries — medical technology, aerospace, measurement and energy technology, space applications and robotics, which the company names explicitly as an application field — wherever positioning accuracy, repeatability and reliability are critical. With around 410 employees at the Albstadt site and an international sales team, Steinmeyer serves customers worldwide from a single, deeply integrated German plant, positioning itself as a specialist partner for linear motion in demanding machines and robotic axes.

GlobleMatch Trust Signals

A directory that doesn’t sell stars. Trust Signals are built only from verifiable facts — never from anonymous ratings, and never for sale. There is no single hidden score.

Public information coverage	9 of 9 fields on the standard profile could be filled from public sources. This counts how much public information exists about the company — not how good the company is. The nine fields are listed in the methodology. Claiming the profile lets the company complete the remaining fields itself.
