Seminars explain how to maximise machine output
Two free technical seminar days at Renishaw's UK headquarters aim to assist UK and Irish businesses combat increasing competition from emerging markets.
To assist UK and Irish businesses combat increasing competition from emerging markets, Renishaw, Iscar and WEAF (West of England Aerospace Forum) will present two free technical seminar days at Renishaw's UK headquarters on 16th and 17th November.
Visitors to the seminars will learn about practical approaches to maximise machine output and minimise quality costs, that will enable them to fight back against lower cost economies.
Alongside thought-provoking presentations about process improvement such as overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), there will also be the opportunity to discuss specific problems with some of the UK's leading experts in machine tool technologies.
Another big attraction for visitors will be the opportunity to see demonstrations of all the breakthrough products introduced at EMO Hanover by Renishaw, including the revolutionary Revo five-axis scanning head for CMMs, new TRS1 single-sided broken tool detection system, powerful PC-based software for part inspection on machine tools, plus innovative linear and angular position feedback encoders.
Also included each day will be the popular tours of Renishaw's award winning machine shop, where presenters will discuss the company's approach to process improvement and the many practical lessons learnt.
Topics covered will include the powerful measure of OEE and the improvements that individual companies can make to raise their performance, reducing cost per part through innovative tooling techniques, maximising machine tool output, increasing inspection throughput, minimising queue and move times, and minimising machine downtime with advanced machine performance tools.
The seminar event is free and visitors will be able to arrive and leave to fit in with their own schedules, choosing from a range of informative presentations that will be repeated throughout the two days of the event.

Magnetic encoders boost dragster speed
Two RM22 compact high-speed rotary magnetic encoders clutch speed and monitor the position of the engine's crankshaft, helping to take the bike reach extremely high speeds. -
Probes improve aerospace component consistency
The Rolls-Royce engine component is made of Inconel, a material that has to be machined correctly the first time, as it doesn't lend itself to re-work.
