Brochure Offered for Oil and Gas Industry



Renishaw Inc. has released its brochure "Take Command of Your Manufacturing Process" for industrial metrology and additive manufacturing for the oil and gas industry. "Every day the oil and gas industry challenges its supply chain to provide high-quality, high-value components that can withstand harsh environments and comply with exacting international standards," said a company spokesperson. "Renishaw can help address these standards by transforming your manufacturing processes and bringing efficiency control and cost savings to your operations."

The brochure discusses Renishaw's Productive Process Pyramid, a method that is designed to reduce scrap, increase throughput and reduce human intervention. The Renishaw products that address the pyramid are also listed in the brochure.

  • Process foundation products are used as preventative controls and are applied in advance of production:
    • XL-80 laser interferometer
    • QC20-W wireless ballbar
  • Process setting controls are applied before metalcutting begins to ensure that the first cuts are correct:
    • OMP400 compact high-accuracy touch probe
    • OTS - optical tool setting and broken tool detection
  • In-process control products are embedded within the metalcutting process and are designed to automatically respond to inherent conditions and unplanned events:
    • OMP600 touch probe
    • Productivity software
  • Post-process monitoring and reporting controls can be implemented to check the process and the finished part against specifications, as well as logging process routes and outcomes:
    • Equator
    • Revo.

The brochure also includes three case studies.
