REVO legacy head
A highly accurate dynamic measuring head and probe system which maximises measurement throughput.
Increased measuring speed
- Up to 500 mm/sec resulting in increased part throughput
- Data collection rates up to 4,000 points per second
- Infinite positioning and five-axis motion reduces non productive transitions between features
- Rapid calibration with all positions inferred means more time measuring
WITH high system accuracy
- 5-axis scanning minimises CMM motion and the associated dynamic errors
- Stylus wear minimised by extremely low scanning forces
- Infinite positioning and five-axis motion aid access to difficult features
- Flexible tip sensing further adds to the systems' accuracy and flexibility
AND great flexibility
- Maximum reach up to 800 mm* with maintained effective working length
- Probe and stylus changing capability allowing flexibility and future probing technology compatibility
- Renishaw UCCserver software application (based on I++ DME command protocol) provides the interface for REVO control
- The removable probe system, used in conjunction with a low cost changer, provides added system flexibility

Case studies

Case study: Escribano - Measuring with speed and precision
A Spanish, Madrid-based precision engineering business specialising in complex parts for aerospace and defence applications has invested in a Renishaw REVO® five-axis measuring head and probe system. The change has resulted in a reduction in inspection time by as much as a factor of 5, ensuring quality control and inspection keep up with its high-productivity CNC machine tools.

Case study: (IN113) Future AM - Measurement system retrofit reduces inspection times and gains new business for world-cl
After Future Advanced Manufacture (Future AM) won a valuable contract to make Titanium blades for a new propulsion system in the US, it invested in a Renishaw REVO® five-axis measuring head and probe system to improve its validation process. The resulting increase in accuracy and efficiency not only ensured the project’s success but also opened up new lines of business and cemented the Gloucestershire based company’s reputation for precision with existing clients.

Case study: Kawasaki - Five-axis CMM inspection lets "good times roll" in QC department at small engine plant
Scanning probes speed form-data collection and feedback to machining cells, reduce CMM fixturing and cut probe calibration time from hours to minutes at Kawasaki's Maryville, MO plant. Increased measurement throughput and flexibility allow faster feedback to manufacturing and R&D department, while scanning CMMs may ultimately eliminate inspection systems for gears and cam lift.

Case study: (IN110) Case study: TURBOCAM International - TURBOCAM “high fives” revolutionary inspection technology
Constantly changing surface geometries, pin-wheeling shapes and tight, intricate features make turbomachinery components — impellers, blades and blisks — some of industry’s most complex and exacting shapes. TURBOCAM International achieved leadership in this specialized field by mastery of five-axis machining and five-axis programming software. However, efficient inspection of ever increasing numbers of complex parts was frustrated by slow, tedious, stop-and-go measurement inspection on a legacy 3+2 axis coordinate measuring machine (CMM).

Case study: GE Oil & Gas - "Huge reductions in inspection time and the ability to measure form"
Every year, GE Oil and Gas invites customers to an open house at its factory in Florence, Italy. This year 800 customers saw the results of a GE Oil and Gas New Technology Introduction project - a DEA Global coordinate measuring machine (CMM), retrofitted with a Renishaw REVO system and measuring impeller parts at a dramatic speed.

Case study: (IN108) ANT - CMM inspection: “There is no other option to REVO®, nothing else comes close"
When ANT Industries, an aerospace sub-contractor, carried out a study on its production processes with the aim to make improvements, it was clear that inspection was a major bottleneck. “There were thousands of non-productive hours a year where parts were either in inspection or waiting to be inspected. These are expensive parts without any value being added”, says Shaun Rowley, ANT’s Manufacturing and Sales Director.
