Renishaw designs and manufactures high precision technology for metrology.
We offer a wide range of probing and tool measurement systems for CNC machine tools.
Established in 1973, our first product was the touch-trigger probe. This innovative product revolutionised the capabilities of co-ordinate measuring machines (CMMs), enabling the accurate measurement of machined components. In 1977 Renishaw launched its first commerical probe for machine tools.
Integrated at every step of the process
Celebrating over 50 years of innovation
Sir David McMurtry invented the first touch-trigger probe
In the mid-1970s, Renishaw introduced the first probe designed for metal cutting applications. This made automated probing for set-up and in-cycle inspection possible.
This innovative product led to a revolution in three-dimensional co-ordinate measurement, enabling the accurate measurement of machined components and finished assemblies.
We design and manufacture high precision technology for metrology.
Machine tool probing and on-machine tool measurement is an established best practice in the machining industry. Manually setting and inspecting tools and parts can be detrimental to machining performance and profitability.
We design and develop systems and solutions for complete precision, control and reliability.
Technology to guide the manufacturing process with minimal human intervention.
Renishaw’s machine tool probing and tool setting systems help manufacturers to reduce scrap rates, eliminate machine down-time, and improve component quality.
