Renishaw will showcase new hardware and software enhancements for the Equator gauging system at EMO Milano 2021 (hall 5, stand C14).

In the design of a self-balancing two-wheeled robotic vehicle, accurate high-speed measurement of angular rotation is a key requirement.

Position encoders with linear scales have wide-ranging applications in front-end and back-end semiconductor manufacturing processes. This application note discusses surface mount technology (SMT) applications and presents an example of where linear steel scale (installed to be thermally independent of its mounting substrate) may be preferable to the currently widely used, but expensive, near-zero thermal expansion scales.

Vacuum technology is used in many high-precision manufacturing processes. Typical applications include semiconductor wafer inspection, wafer bonding, photolithography and thin film deposition.

Renishaw, the global metrology specialist, launches an analogue output option for its QUANTiC encoder readheads.

Renishaw, the global engineering technologies company, builds on its existing functionally safe (FS) portfolio by introducing two new encoders for both linear and rotary applications — RESOLUTE™ FS with BiSS^® Safety absolute open optical encoder system, and TONiC™ FS incremental open optical encoder system.
