Your USA Based Manufacturing Partner

Proudly in Pennsylvania

Production Systems Automation is an engineering and manufacturing company located over three locations in Pennsylvania. Between the three locations, PSA offers over 100,000 sq feet of advanced manufacturing space, custom automation and robotics integration alongside PSA’s UAS development products and services. This allows PSA to both design systems, and produce them at scale in-house, in the USA. The team producing the UAS in house at PSA has been active for 12 years, supporting projects at Picatinny Arsenal and elsewhere.
