To support its rapidly growing customer base in India, global engineering technologies company, Renishaw, recently opened a new Technology Centre in Bangalore, India.
It officially opened the new facility on December 7th, 2022, and the new site is now providing customers with access to demonstrations of Renishaw’s solutions for metrology, and material analysis.
After experiencing growing demand in the Indian markets, Renishaw made the decision to move to a new 12,000 square feet facility which houses its technical, operations and sales and marketing teams, warehouse and Technology Centre. Located on the ground floor of the new facility, the Centre allows companies to work with Renishaw engineers to understand how their processes can become more efficient and productive using Renishaw technologies. Visitors to the Centre will be able to view demonstrations of Renishaw’s extensive product portfolio, including its advanced metrology equipment for process control applications, such as the EquatorTM flexible gauge and scanning systems for CNC machine tools.

Those attending the inauguration day included William Lee, Renishaw’s CEO, Andy Buttrey, President of Renishaw APAC and Paul Gallagher, Vice President and Managing Director of Renishaw APAC. Other guests included Mr P Ramadas, Managing Director of Ace Manufacturing Systems and Past President of the Indian Machine Tool Manufacturer’s Association, and over 30 CEOs, Managing Directors and Vice Presidents from renowned manufacturing companies operating in India,

“Last year India rose to number two in the Global Manufacturing Index, showing how the market is growing in the region,” explained Paul Weaver, Director of Sales & Marketing – Renishaw Metrology Systems Ltd. “We opened our first training and demonstration centre in Pune in 2008 and we thought now was the right time to increase our investment in India. The new facility is crucial in enabling us to keep up with the country’s industrial growth and continue to expand our customer base.”

“At the inauguration day, we showcased our advanced systems to fellow manufacturers, partners and potential customers, and highlighted our long-term commitment to India, where we have operated since the 1980s,” commented Paul Gallagher. “We demonstrated how Renishaw’s dedicated team can support and provide the technical training people need to get the most out of their manufacturing and metrology processes.”

On December 7th, the guests at the inauguration cut the ribbon to officially open the facility and unveiled a commemorative plaque. After the ribbon cutting, the team lit a traditional Indian Samai lamp, which was followed by an address by Mr Ramadas on the future of the manufacturing industry in India, and a guided tour of the new facility by Renishaw employees.

Walter is investing at its company HQ. With its new Technology Centre, the Tübingen-based machining solution specialist is keen to offer its customers and employees even better opportunities for gaining first-hand experience of using and testing high-tech tools.
With a final hammer blow, CEO Mirko Merlo yesterday laid the foundations for the new Technology Centre of the Tübingen-based manufacturer of high-tech metal cutting tools. Starting early in the summer of 2016, Walter will use the new building to develop and test the machining technologies of the future – working with genuine customer components and materials. New machining processes will be optimised for real-world work applications in technical training sessions and workshops with customers, trading partners and employees from across the globe. Walter is also planning on machining prototypes of selected components in direct coordination with customers from the aerospace, energy, automotive and general engineering sectors at the new Technology Centre.

The Walter Technology Centre will be equipped with the latest processing and communication technology. This will enable training sessions to be broadcast live to all Walter distributors from the machine hall located on the ground floor. The largest of the six training rooms, the auditorium, can seat up to 200 guests and is therefore suitable for major customer events and cross-sector expert symposiums.
“Engineering Kompetenz that you can touch: This is the philosophy of our new Technology Centre,” explains Mirko Merlo, CEO at Walter AG, “and, in future, we will welcome all of our visitors in this representative building, demonstrating the full bandwidth of our services. After spending one full day working and experiencing everything that the Technology Centre has to offer, our customers and overseas employees will be left in no doubt as to the innovative power and solution expertise of the Walter brand.”

“We will also use practical examples to demonstrate our idea of a “digital factory”, in which machines, tools and workpieces are all networked,” explains Jacek Kruszynski, Vice President of the Global Competence Centre. Walter also offers software-supported machining strategies and services for manufacturing processes in the metal industry – from the selection and provision of tools, through machining, and all the way up to reconditioning and recycling of the high-grade carbide tools.

The Technology Centre, which was designed by the Tübingen-based Hähnig Gemmeke architects office and boasts approximately 5,000 square metres of floor space, also includes a generously proportioned cafeteria on the top floor for all Tübingen-based employees and visitors.
