Renishaw transforms manufacturing performance

Date: October 2010

These include new systems for assessing the performance of both three- and five- axis machine tools, a new five-axis probe head for CMMs that can give up to a threefold increase in throughput for touch-trigger measurement, new touch probes for automated setting and on-machine part verification on CNC machine tools, new PC-based software for probing on multi-axis machines, and an award winning CMM retrofit service.
