About Us

Since 1873, Joyce/Dayton Corp., with headquarters based in Dayton, Ohio, has been a leading manufacturer of heavy-duty lifting and positioning equipment and has thousands of customers worldwide. With unmatched engineering and technical expertise, the company consistently provides time- and price-sensitive solutions that turn ideas into working solutions.

Our extensive line of lifting equipment, manufactured at our plant in Portland, Indiana, is able to move loads from 250-pounds to 250-tons. We produce worm gear and bevel gear screw jacks, electric cylinders, ball screw jacks, and linear actuators.

Joyce provides actuators for general industrial use as well as a line of solar specific actuators. Additionally, the components needed for complete systems – everything from shafting to complex motor controls – are available from Joyce.

We have decades of experience designing systems to meet customer requirements. When our standard equipment does not meet application requirements, we customize. Our staff of Application and Electrical engineers is knowledgeable, experienced, and available to serve you.
