Floating steel encoder scales for SMT

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.

UK’s Digital Manufacturing Centre enters close collaboration with Renishaw and places first additive manufacturing machine order of two RenAM 500Q systems

An exciting step towards the UK-based additive manufacturing facility's opening in Q1 2021, the Digital Manufacturing Centre (DMC) has confirmed it has purchased two Renishaw RenAM 500Q machines - chosen to increase efficiencies and quality while reducing each part's weight, waste and costs - as well as a joint development collaboration with Renishaw's leading additive manufacturing team.
