The company's diverse product portfolio includes coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), machine tool probes, calibration systems, additive manufacturing (3D printing) systems, and Raman spectroscopy instruments. Renishaw serves a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, energy, electronics, healthcare, and precision manufacturing. Renowned for its commitment to innovation and quality, Renishaw operates in over 36 countries, providing advanced solutions that enhance efficiency and productivity in manufacturing and healthcare sectors worldwide.
Renishaw has announced the launch of the inVia InSpect, a new version of its bestselling inVia confocal Raman microscope, optimised for use in forensic laboratories for trace chemical analysis.
The new RKLA substrate mastered encoder scale is designed to adopt the thermal behaviour of the underlying substrate. It is compatible with Renishaw's RESOLUTE absolute encoder series.
Users of Renishaw's leading XM-60 multi-axis calibrator can now benefit from a new single-axis horizontal stage. This enables precise alignment in applications without an axis perpendicular to the travel.
Global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, has collaborated with the Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC) in Canada, to produce two ocean turbine parts using additive manufacturing (AM) for industrial design firm Biome Renewables. Renishaw helped manufacture a PowerCone® retrofit that co-rotates with the turbine's rotor and curved propellors to reduce drag. Using metal AM to produce these parts reduced costs by 80 per cent and meant that two turbine components could be developed in two months.
Global engineering company, Renishaw, is collaborating with Simufact to enhance the success of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) builds through accurate simulation and streamlined additive manufacturing (AM) build preparation.
After a successful pilot year of its 3D printer loan scheme, where global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, loaned 30 local schools a 3D printer for three months, the company has continued the project for a second year.
As the world enters a new era of smart manufacturing, industry demand for precision motion control systems is increasing to unprecedented levels. Based in Taiwan, Chieftek Precision Co., Ltd. (CPC) is a global manufacturer of precision motion control products such as linear guide rails and direct-drive (DD) motion stages.
