Renishaw PLC, Gloucestershire

Renishaw is one of the world's leading engineering and scientific technology companies, with expertise in precision measurement and healthcare. The company supplies products and services used in applications as diverse as jet engine and wind turbine manufacture, through to dentistry and brain surgery. It is also a world leader in the field of additive manufacturing (also referred to as metal 3D printing), where it is the only UK business that designs and makes industrial machines which ‘print' parts from metal powder.

The Renishaw Group currently has more than 70 offices in 35 countries, with around 4,000 employees worldwide. Around 2,600 people are employed within the UK where the company carries out the majority of its research and development and its manufacturing.

Precision measurement and process control

Our metrology products help manufacturers to maximise production output, to reduce significantly the time taken to produce and inspect components, and to keep their machines running reliably. In the fields of industrial automation and motion systems, our position measurement and calibration systems allow builders to manufacture highly accurate and reliable products.

Position and motion control

Renishaw offers a wide range of high speed, absolute and incremental, linear and rotary encoder systems to meet the diverse requirements of industrial automation.

3D laser scanning and measurement

In extreme environments, such as offshore and underground, our spatial measurement products help customers to obtain accurate data on a target object's distance, position and orientation.

Healthcare

Renishaw is applying its precision engineering technologies to the challenges of healthcare applications.

Scientific

Precision technology for use in scientific applications for analysis and research.

Additive manufacturing (metal 3D printing)

Additive manufacturing, also called metal 3D printing, is a process used to create three-dimensional parts from a digital file. It usually involves building up, or solidifying, thin layers of material to create complete parts. The technology is able to produce complex shapes which cannot be produced by 'traditional' techniques such as casting, forging and machining.

Rapid prototyping

Additive manufacturing and vacuum casting technologies that enable the fast generation of prototype parts as well as high quality production parts.
