Renishaw
Renishaw is a UK-based global precision measurement and healthcare technology company founded in 1973, widely regarded as one of the world’s most technically advanced metrology and encoder manufacturers, with manufacturing operations in the UK, Ireland, India, and the US, and sales and service offices in over 35 countries. The company’s encoder portfolio — produced through its Encoder Division headquartered in Gloucestershire — covers optical incremental and absolute linear encoders (including the RESOLUTE absolute encoder with sub-nanometer resolution and the FASTRACK high-speed linear system), rotary encoders, angle encoders, magnetic encoders, and the TONiC ultra-compact incremental encoder series, all supported by a comprehensive range of readheads, scales, rings, and accessories designed for integration into precision motion stages, machine tools, semiconductor equipment, and medical devices. Renishaw also operates an associate company relationship with RLS (Renishaw-associated magnetic encoder specialist), reflecting its deep commitment to advancing both optical and magnetic position sensing technology across the full spectrum of precision motion applications.
