Renishaw Advanced Materials

Renishaw Advanced Materials, formerly Diameter Ltd., has core competencies in the application of diamond-like carbon (DLC) and “smart materials” such as shape memory alloy and piezo materials. These materials are able to provide effective solutions in the areas of healthcare, aerospace, manufacturing, sensors, actuators and luxury goods.

If wear resistance, low friction, chemical barrier properties and high electrical resistance are desirable properties, Renishaw Advanced Materials can provide thin-films of DLC, applied to metals, polymers or ceramics to enhance your product.

If micro sized sensors or high force, compact actuators or improved manufacturing processes for increased productivity are required, Renishaw Advanced Materials have the expertise to configure shape memory alloys and piezo materials for your product.

In addition, Renishaw Advanced Materials, through sponsored and in-house research, has produced unique material configurations to facilitate innovations in technology, processing techniques and novel products.
