World leading measurement company Renishaw opened its first dedicated demonstration and training centre for the Indian market at its main office at Pune. The new 200 m2 facility houses CNC machine tools and co-ordinate measuring machine (CMMs) from Indian manufacturers, which together with supporting seminar rooms, will allow Renishaw to meet the increasing need for training and support being generated by its rapidly expanding customer base within India. Formally opening the new facility, Ben Taylor, Renishaws assistant chief executive, said, "This investment marks a further chapter in Renishaws ongoing commitment to the Indian market. We have been trading in India for more than 25 years, and in 2000 created Renishaw Metrology Pvt Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary based in Bangalore. Today, I am proud to see the contribution we are making to the growth of Indian manufacturing, assisting companies to raise quality standards and productivity levels." The new demonstration and training centre will offer technical support to both OEM customers and end-users for Renishaws wide range of market leading metrology products, including CMM probe systems, touch probes and laser tool setters for CNC machine tools, linear and rotary encoders for position feedback, calibration systems for machine performance analysis, and Raman spectroscopy systems for spectral analysis. Within India, Renishaw has also set up a procurement operation to directly source high quality components from Indian vendors, whilst a development team specialising in metrology software has also been formed.
