Renishaw celebrates half a century of innovation

 
"Over the years, we have built a company that is different to others. Different in how we apply technology to real world problems, in how we invest for the long-term, in how we manufacture rather than outsource, and in how we treat our customers as partners."
 
Sir David McMurtry
Co-founder and Executive Chairman

From humble beginnings to global leaders.


Renishaw was established in 1973 by David McMurtry (now Sir David McMurtry), Executive Chairman, and John Deer, Non-executive Deputy Chairman. Renishaw’s first product, the touch-trigger probe, was invented by Sir David to solve a specific inspection requirement for the Olympus engines used in Concorde. This innovative product led to a revolution in three-dimensional co-ordinate measurement, enabling the accurate measurement of machined components and finished assemblies.

 

Fast-forward 50 years. Renishaw now has a global presence, with over 80 locations in 36 countries.

A brief history - From humble beginnings to global leaders

Renishaw was established in 1973 by David McMurtry (now Sir David McMurtry), Executive Chairman, and John Deer, Non-executive Deputy Chairman. Renishaw’s first product, the touch-trigger probe, was invented by Sir David to solve a specific inspection requirement for the Olympus engines used in Concorde. This innovative product led to a revolution in three-dimensional co-ordinate measurement, enabling the accurate measurement of machined components and finished assemblies.
 
Over the past 50 years, Renishaw’s products have revolutionized key aspects of component manufacturing and scientific research, contributing to the ability to make the high-performing, precision products that we use in our daily lives. 
 
Fast forward to the present day, Renishaw now has a global presence, with over 80 locations in 36 countries. From the manufacture of aircraft, cars, smartphones, electric vehicle batteries, and solar panels, to brain surgery and dentistry, there is barely an industry that does not in some way benefit from the Company’s ongoing innovations.
