Renishaw's Coordinate Measuring MachineandGaugingProduct Division (CGPD) buildsproductsthatlead the market in delivering innovative, high accuracy measurement solutions tomanufacturingprocesses around the world.

Renishaw's patented probe technology was first used to measure intricate components for Concorde engines. Today, many iterations later, our products are the benchmark in high-precision engineering for manufacturing hundreds of everyday items from mobile phones and laptops to car and aircraft parts. There's a good chance our probes were involved in the production of the device you are reading this on.

The circuits inCGPDproducts include high-precision analogue interface designs, laser drivers, data acquisition circuits, FPGA-based signal processing, high-speed serial communications,high-performance processor platformsandindustrialmotor drive and control solutions.Renishaw's on-site development and production facilities are state-of-the art.The work is stimulating and varied and involves close collaboration with colleagues in electronics, mechanical and software design roles as well as with wider areas of the business.
