The software will be presented at EMO Hannover 2025

Renishaw, a provider of engineering technologies, is set to present its new Modus IM Equator software at EMO Hannover 2025

The software, built on the Modus IM platform, increases productivity for users of the Equator and Equator-X gauging systems. 

Renishaw have over 50 years of experience, utilising it to create inspection programs and characteristics-based metrology reporting, without the need for in-depth knowledge of metrology or inspection programming.

The new software gives customers the ability to assign simple measurement features with a user-friendly CAD interface, with no code needed. Automatically ensuring machine movements are collision-free and settings follow metrology best practice.

Rob Harrison, Renishaw's director of Industrial Metrology Software, said, “MODUS IM Equator software introduces Absolute and Compare inspection functionality to further enhance the new Equator-X dual method systems. Empowering our customers to easily create inspection programs allows them to harness the full potential of our metrology solutions.”

The new software provides a CAD-driven platform for creating and running inspection programs, complementing the existing Modua IM DMIS software that is based on the code-driven Modus software, which is also available on the Equator-X gauging system.

On top of offering two programming options, the Modus IM platform provides both a cohesive and unified user experience across a broad range of use cases.

For shop floor process control applications, Modus IM Equator software combines with the Renishaw Central manufacturing connectivity and data platform to improve process monitoring capabilities. Renishaw Central provides a clear look at manufacturing metrology data and process control by employing Intelligent Process Control (IPC) software, offering automatic updates of tool offsets and machine tool variables.

From September 22 to 26, visitors will be able to see Modus IM Equator software on stand D06, hall five at EMO Hannover 2025. For more information, visit: www.renishaw.com/modus-im-equator.
