Renishaw distributor upgrades telescope for astronomy research

April 2021

For over 40 years the Wise Observatory, an astronomical research facility owned and operated by Tel Aviv University, has been supporting cutting-edge astronomical research.

Some components such as the motors, bearings and the position feedback encoders, have a predetermined lifespan and researchers were beginning to notice performance issues.

After reviewing providers online, Wise Observatory chose to collaborate with Israel-based motion technology provider, Soulutions, which is also an official and local distributor of Renishaw encoders.
