Renishaw AB Has New Leadership

 
 
Bo Eneholm, the new general manager for Renishaw’s Swedish subsidiary.

Renishaw plc has appointed a leading figure from the Swedish metrology industry to head up its Nordic operations. Bo Eneholm, 42, the new general manager of Renishaw AB, was lately GM of Hexagon Metrology’s Nordic office.

As well as possessing a deep knowledge of measurement technologies, Eneholm has a strong background in machine tool and tooling system sales. He has worked for a variety of Swedish companies that deal with metrology and machine tool products. Eneholm is also currently chairman of the Swedish Industrial Metrology Forum (SIMET).

Renishaw AB, based in Järfälla near Stockholm, was set up in 2003. The subsidiary supports Renishaw’s full range of products, including coordinate measuring machine (CMM) probe systems, touch probes, and laser toolsetters for CNC machine tools, linear encoders and rotary encoders for position feedback, and calibration systems for machine performance analysis.

“I have always had the highest regard for Renishaw and its products, which was formed when I worked for the company’s then Swedish distributor Mikromess,” explains Eneholm. “Therefore, the opportunity to join this world leader in measurement and encoder technologies was simply too good to miss.”

Eneholm says that his immediate aims are to further strengthen sales and technical support to the customer base of machine builders, end users, and distributors.

Commenting on the appointment, Ben Taylor, Renishaw’s assistant chief executive, says, “We are very pleased to welcome Bo on board. Our measurement technologies are being applied to increasingly diverse applications, and his experience within the metrology sector should prove especially valuable in helping to educate our Nordic customers about the benefits of our revolutionary 5-axis measurement systems for CMMs.”
