BLOODHOUND Supersonic Car Turns to Renishaw 3D Printing Expertise

BRISTOL, UK – Renishaw is contributing its knowledge in additive manufacturing to create key prototype parts for the BLOODHOUND supersonic car, which will attempt to break the 1,000 mph speed barrier during Summer 2015. One of the most critical components is the nose tip for the car, which will be the very first part to break through any new land speed record. The tip is subject to forces as...

Operating with XL-80 or ML10 laser interferometers, Model XR20-W wirelessly measures angular position of rotary axes for testing accuracy of lathes, multi-axis machine tools,- trunnion tables, and spindles. Off-axis rotary software allows XR20-W to be used even when it cannot be positioned directly on rotary axis under test. Software calculates true position and records axis performance and...
