Halifax Numerical Controls (HNC), founded in 1998, is a world-leader in advanced rubber and composite roll manufacturing machinery. It's broad product range spans everything from machines for small precision and rollers for the print industry to very large diameter conveyor rollers used in mining and quarrying.
A critical aspect of building HNC's grinding machines is the accurate alignment of machine beds. Renishaw's solutions, particularly the XK10 alignment laser system, have significantly and positively impacted HNC. The company has dramatically reduced the time required for machine alignments from four hours to just 20 minutes. This has allowed HNC to produce machines more quickly and generate a full set of recorded alignment results for each machine.
