Our purpose and vision

Transforming

Tomorrow

Together

Renishaw is a global provider of manufacturing technologies, analytical instruments and medical devices.

Our purpose is to make it possible to create the products, materials and therapies that will define our world in the decades to come and touch billions of lives.

By pursuing our purpose, we can continue to be a world leader in precision technology and deliver on our vision to innovate and transform capabilities in manufacturing, science and healthcare through unparalleled levels of precision, productivity and practicality.

Illustration: Renishaw's REVO® system uses synchronised motion and 5-axismeasurement technology to minimise the dynamic effects of CMM motion at ultra-highmeasurement speeds.

REVO is used in the automotive industry to inspect high-efficiency electric motors found in the latest generation of electric cars. The air gap between the rotor and stator in these assemblies is critical to ensure electrical efficiency to maximise driving range.

What we do

We work closely with our customers to solve complex engineering and science challenges and improve products and processes. Our unique blend of pioneering research and product innovation helps push the boundaries of what is possible, transforming product performance and touching billions of lives around the world.

We have two operating segments: Manufacturing technologies, and Analytical instruments and medical devices.

Manufacturing technologies (formerly Metrology)

The products in our Manufacturing technologies segment of the business (formerly referred to as Metrology) are enabling the factories of the future. From metal part manufacture on machine tools and additive manufacturing systems (AM), to industrial automation and motion systems, manufacturers rely on us. We provide customers with products that support precise, intricate production processes; higher process yields; faster cycle times; and greater automation. We also provide easy-to-use solutions with embedded knowledge and data analytics.

Analytical instruments and medical devices (formerly Healthcare)

Our innovative technologies also bring precision, productivity and practicality to a wide range of applications, including advanced materials analysis, brain surgery, facial reconstructive surgery and dentistry. Our spectroscopy systems give researchers a deeper understanding of materials and their interactions at a molecular level, including biochemical changes associated with disease formation and progression. Our robots and drug delivery devices help deliver precision for life-enhancing therapies for neurological conditions. We also supply specially configured metal additive manufacturing systems for medical and dental applications.
