The company will also show its machining cell concept, which has the ability to monitor key process inputs and analyze data can improve manufacturing processes and facilitate increased productivity and higher accuracy.
In addition, Renishaw will have a booth in the Additive Manufacturing Zone at hall 27, stand A72, where it will demonstrate its build file preparation software, QuantAM 2017, which was designed for Renishaw’s metal AM systems, RenAM 500M and AM 400.
