apply innovation" Why Probe? Time is money, and time spent manually setting workpiece positions and inspecting finished products will impact on your manufacturing performance and profitability. Renishaw probing systems eliminate this costly machine down-time and associated scrapping of components Increase throughput from your existing assets If your machines are overloaded, you could face a sizeable capital investment to make up the shortfall, a large sub-contract bill, or worse still, turn away profitable work But what if you could extract more throughput from your existing machinery? You...

The Productive Process Pyramid™ Building on its own experiences developing robust manufacturing processes, Renishaw has developed a simple framework to explain how metrology solutions can deliver successful processes through the application of process control. Renishaw’s solutions improve machining performance and increase manufacturing capability. Renishaw’s process control solutions can be applied in advance of, just before, during and after metal cutting. Renishaw uses process controls identified by the manufacturing timeline to build its Productive Process Pyramid. The Productive...

Post-process monitoring In-process control Process setting Process foundation Standard accuracy machine tool probes Previously it could take 1.5 hours to set a job that took 4.5 hours of machining; that was totally unacceptable. Now we can do the same set-up in 10 minutes, immediately freeing up 1 hour 20 minutes to cut more metal, which we make money on.
