FORTiS™ - enclosed linear absolute encoder series
Renishaw Sp. z o.o.
An enclosed optical encoder houses the encoder's electronics and optics within a sealed unit that is attached to a readhead body. Both the sealed optical unit and the encoder's scale are further protected within a sealed enclosure. This design provides high resistance to the ingress of liquids and solid debris contaminants.
Customers can choose from two different extrusion profiles to suit their space requirements. The FORTiS-S™ linear encoder is the standard-sized encoder, available with measuring lengths from 140 mm to 4240 mm and is installed directly to a machined surface via flexure holes in the extrusion's body.
The FORTiS-N™ encoder, available with measuring lengths from 70 mm to 2040 mm, features a narrower cross-section extrusion and a more compact readhead to enable installations in confined spaces. This model can be mounted directly to a machined surface via two end cap mounting holes or a mounting spar for greater rigidity.
Renishaw FORTiS absolute encoder systems have CE approval and are manufactured in-house using strict quality-controlled processes that are certified to ISO 9001:2015 and backed by a global sales and support network.
Fortis series provide:
- Non-contact design – no mechanical wear and greater longevity
- Reduced hysteresis – smoother feedback and improved dynamic performance
- Breakthrough in readhead design – superior vibration resistance
- Uniquely sealed – greater resistance to contamination by fluids and solid debris
- Patented set-up LEDs – integral LED signal strength indicator for simple and quick installation and set-up

Renishaw Sp. z o.o.
The AGILITY range of CMMs will help to increase the throughput and quality of your manufacturing with fully integrated dimensional measurement and surface roughness inspection. From the use of high-quality materials and components to the full optimisation of 5-axis measurement technology, AGILITY CMMs provide a high-speed, high-performance solution for the shop floor or metrology lab.
AGILITY CMMs bring together the pioneering technology and high-quality manufacturing that have gained Renishaw an unrivalled reputation for innovation in the most demanding industry sectors. The machines are designed to deliver all the advantages of the REVO multi-sensor 5-axis measurement system, including:
15% to 50% cycle time savings, compared to 3-axis measurement systems
Integrated dimensional inspection and surface roughness measurement
Infinite positioning for superior feature access
AGILITY S 5-axis multi-sensor CMMs for the shop floor:
Designed for shop floor environments
The S range of CMMs provides the ability to accurately measure parts in shop floor environments without temperature control. The rapid data capture speeds provided by 5-axis measurement reduce inspection cycle times, helping production departments keep pace with high volume manufacture. The systems work well in both stand-alone and fully automated production lines.
Rapid results at the point of manufacture
Results are captured at, or close to the point of manufacture, so production decisions can be made much faster. This replaces the traditional method of routing parts to centralised inspection facilities, reducing time and cost to the part and the risk associated with part handling.
Reducing operations
The multi-sensor capability of the system allows users to combine multiple checks in one automated part program. This gives production departments the ability to report on dimensional features and surface roughness callouts. AGILITY CMMs therefore minimise footprint and simplify measurement processes.
AGILITY L CMMs with 5-axis multi-sensor technology for laboratories:
Premium accuracy
The L range of CMMs delivers the performance needed by manufacturers operating in the top end of aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics and other precision engineering sectors. The most accurate machine has sub-micron accuracy, and even the largest L 163512 is specified at under 2 µm.
High throughput
The 5-axis functionality helps meet the throughput challenges of a machine operating in a controlled environment as an integral part of the manufacturing process. Fast inspection turnaround of development parts and production samples ensures verification is as efficient as possible.
Ultimate multi-sensor flexibility
Combining the infinite positioning of the REVO probe head with the most comprehensive range of sensors, AGILITY L machines are an ideal platform for developing new products and manufacturing processes. The surface finish probe will reach features previously inaccessible. The non-contact sensors will capture surface data without touching the part. The ultrasonic thickness probe simplifies inspection routines and often eliminates the need for part reorientation.

ASTRiA™ inductive rotary absolute encoders
Renishaw Sp. z o.o.
Fast, efficient, robust inductive encoder
The ASTRiA inductive rotary absolute encoder achieves an impressive total system accuracy of ±40 arc seconds and 23 bit resolution (for a Ø100 mm size), which is made possible by using a multi-track scale, robust mechanical design and advanced signal processing.

Equator 300 - gauging systems for industrial manufacturing
Renishaw Sp. z o.o.
Shop floor gauging for industrial manufacturing
To control manufacturing processes on the shop floor, traditional gauges like callipers, go/no-go gauges or bore gauges have been used for decades. However, modern manufacturing requires high-speed operations, consistent measurement and adaptability to fast changing needs that gauges cannot deliver.
Equator gauging systems are high-speed gauges designed to provide speed, repeatability and ease of use for manual or automated applications in medium or high-volume manufacturing shop floors; which is why hundreds of manufacturers worldwide continue to replace their current gauging method with Equator systems.
Equator systems can be configured with hardware, software and accessory options to optimise manufacturing process and specific application, whether for manual or automated operations.
- Fast and efficient to keep up with production lines and reduce scrap
- Highly repeatable and accurate
- Thermally insensitive and designed for the shopfloor
- Versatile and reprogrammable
