Our PROMISE: Quality Digest only displays static ads that never overlay or cover up content. They never get in your way. They are there for you to read, or not.
However, someone has to pay for this content. And that’s where advertising comes in. Most people consider ads a nuisance, but they do serve a useful function besides allowing media companies to stay afloat. They keep you aware of new products and services relevant to your industry. All ads in Quality Digest apply directly to products and services that most of our readers need. You won’t see automobile or health supplement ads.
“The existing processes surrounding robot setup and maintenance are largely manual for an industry built upon automation,” says Kevyn Jonas, director of Renishaw’s Industrial Automation Products Division. “With no existing fully comprehensive solutions, these methods have been accepted until today. Robot integrators and users now finally have a solution for a quick, simple, and traceable means to manage their robots.”
The RCS product line was publicly available and demonstrated for the first time at Automate 2023 in Detroit in May, with a subsequent launch to the European market at Automatica 2023 in Munich.
Quality Digest does not charge readers for its content. We believe that industry news is important for you to do your job, and Quality Digest supports businesses of all types.

According to Will Lee, Renishaw’s chief executive, “Our success over 50 years is built on providing robust and reliable products that solve manufacturing problems across a wide range of industry sectors. With the global growth of robotics, and their increased use in precision production applications, we are seeing significant challenges. We believe we can address these challenges based on our decades of experience providing calibration and setup solutions within the machine tool and motion control industries.”
The range includes three products: RCS L-90, RCS T-90, and RCS P-series, all supported by a dedicated software suite. RCS L-90 is a ballbar device that improves robot system accuracy, reduces deployment time, and monitors robot health with simple routines controlled by its supporting software suite. RCS T-90 is a tri-ballbar system which enables robot users to identify root causes of poor performance, with further comprehensive tests to capture critical robot information—such as remastering the joint offsets to calculated positions, running master-recovery routines, and plotting 3D path performance. The third RCS product, RCS P-series, integrates a permanent Renishaw probing solution within a robot cell to apply in-process metrology and automatic recovery to automation processes.
