Renishaw Highlights Robotic Efficiency at Automate 2026
Renishaw will highlight its latest solutions for maximizing robot performance and manufacturing efficiency at Automate 2026, taking place June 22–25 at McCormick Place in Chicago.
At Booth #3853 (South Building), Renishaw will present a range of technologies designed to improve robot accuracy, reduce downtime, and enhance process control across automated manufacturing environments.
A key feature of the exhibit will be the U.S. debut of Renishaw’s RCS (Robot Calibration System) demo cell, showcasing live demonstrations of cell recovery and in-field robot calibration. These solutions enable manufacturers to quickly recover from collisions or process interruptions, restore accuracy, and significantly reduce unplanned downtime.
In addition to robot calibration technologies, Renishaw will also exhibit its Equator-X dual-method gauging system, demonstrating fast, flexible measurement for high-throughput production environments. The system supports both absolute and comparative gauging, helping manufacturers maintain process control while adapting to changing production demands.
Renishaw will further highlight its portfolio of position and motion control encoders, which play a critical role in robotic performance. These encoders provide precise feedback for robotic joints, enabling accurate positioning, smooth motion control, and repeatable performance across a wide range of applications.
Renishaw encoders are specifically designed to address the unique requirements of robotic systems, including:
