Renishaw, Inc.

Renishaw is a global company with core skills in measurement, precision machining, additive manufacturing, and motion control. We develop innovative products that advance our customers' operational performance - improving manufacturing efficiencies and raising product quality. Our products are used for applications as diverse as machine tool automation, coordinate measurement, additive manufacturing, gauging, and calibration. Built on Renishaw’s established and trusted metrology technology, the RCS product series is designed to enable consistent, fast and traceable robot cell improvements. It addresses long standing challenges in industrial automation, providing practical solutions that improve reliability, accuracy and ease of deployment. The products fall into two main categories, starting with portable, ballbar based toolkit solutions designed for in field robot calibration. The toolkit range includes RCS L 90, a single ballbar system used to improve robot accuracy, speed up deployment and monitor ongoing robot health. For more advanced requirements, RCS T 90 expands capability with a tri ballbar system, enabling deeper diagnostics, root cause analysis of performance issues and joint re mastering. Both systems are supported by an intuitive robotics software suite that guides users step by step through each test. Secondly, RCS P series is Renishaw’s robot probing solution for fast, accurate alignment and recovery in automated cells. It enables robots to automatically establish part and tool frames, keeping processes accurate without manual touch ups. When cells are disrupted by drift, maintenance or collisions, P series allows systems to be quickly recovered to a known baseline, reducing downtime and helping manufacturers get back into production faster. Renishaw also provides a wide range of high-quality, reliable encoders that offer precise feedback, even in extreme conditions. Their compact and lightweight construction supports flexible system designs and seamless integration into a variety of robot types, where accuracy, repeatability, and control are critical requirements.
