Accuracy

At Ajax, precision is paramount. We proudly stand out as one of the few companies in the UK equipped with a Renishaw XL80 laser measurement machine, capable of detecting movements as minute as a nanometre—equivalent to one-thousandth of a micron or one-thousandth of a millimetre. We utilize this precise data to calibrate our machines to exceptional accuracy. This calibration can be performed on-site if needed, and we recommend annual recalibrations to maintain optimal performance. Typically, our results ensure that machines operate within an impressive tolerance of less than +/- 0.002 across their entire working range. In contrast, many of our competitors fall short of this standard and lack the means to verify their claims.
