Based on the established and highly capable MODUS platform with support for Renishaw's<br />
suite of 3- and 5-axis CMM sensor technologies, MODUS 2 has been designed with usability<br />
in mind. The innovative interface is simple for new users to learn and faster to program,<br />
resulting in unprecedented levels of productivity with or without a CAD model.</div>

A complete redesign of the software interface combined with the introduction of<br />
Off-Surface Motion (OSM) technology, intelligent measurement strategies, automatic<br />
reporting and an interactive virtual CMM environment are just some of the innovations<br />
that enhance the user experience. From simple manual CMM operation through to complex<br />
part measurement on multi-axis systems, MODUS 2 adapts automatically and only offers<br />
functionality relevant to the current task.</div>

The user experience is designed to be identical whether the software is connected to a ‘live'<br />
CMM or working in an offline environment where full simulation with speed control allows<br />
measurement sequence development and visualisation.</div>

world-leading metrology specialist, is adding to its extensive optical encoder
range with the launch of the VIONiC™ series, a new family of ultra-high

world’s most demanding motion control applications, this development brings
together Renishaw’s renowned filtering optics with a new custom interpolation
and monitoring ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) that enhances
dynamic signal processing and improves signal stability. This achievement has
allowed Renishaw to create its highest performance incremental encoder system
so far, at the same time combining all necessary interpolation and digital
signal processing inside the readhead to eliminate the requirement for
additional external interfaces.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

been designed to reduce overall system size to the minimum achievable for a
high-performance system, whilst delivering class-leading performance in terms
of cyclic error, jitter and accuracy. Customers can choose between two VIONiC
readhead variants. The standard VIONiC readhead features a Sub-Divisional Error

SDE to <±10 nm, low jitter to 1.6 nm RMS and resolutions from 100 nm
down to 2.5 nm. Low SDE encoders are essential to minimise velocity
ripple, which is important in constant-velocity applications such as laser
scanning.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

are available with the same linear and rotary (angle) scale ranges as the
TONiC™ series, such that existing customers may choose to install VIONiC as a
drop-in replacement. Available scale types include metal tape, spar, and rotary
rings (including ultra-high accuracy REXM). All VIONiC scales come with
customer selectable <i>IN-TRAC</i>™
reference marks embedded in the incremental channel and dual-limit switches in
the case of linear scales.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

set-up and calibration is supported by an Advanced Diagnostic Tool (ADT), which
includes user software that allows control and monitoring of VIONiC’s set-up
and calibration routines. New software features include: enhanced graphics, automatically
generated plots of signal strength vs position, Lissajous plots, DRO output,
and readhead pitch indication. This set-up tool is ideal for factory
production-line installation as it allows remote, advanced calibration
features.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

incremental encoders has CE approval and is manufactured by Renishaw, using
strict quality controlled processes that are certified to ISO 9001:2008, and,
like all Renishaw encoders, is backed by a truly responsive global sales and
support network. The VIONiC encoder series is available to order from August
2016.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

deduction for 2014 to $500,000 -- much greater than the normal $25,000.
On January 1, this deduction will revert back to $25,000, so now is the time to
act. This allows your business to deduct the purchase price of Inspection Equipment
purchased during the 2014 calendar year. This offers a huge cash savings
for your business for purchase of items including Coordinate Measuring
Machines, CMM Retrofits and Hardware upgrades, Renishaw Equator Gages, and
Probing Upgrades. <br />
<br />
The deduction limit is $500,000 for most new and used equipment purchases.
The law also has provisions for “bonus” depreciation on CAPEX exceeding
$500,000.<br />
