Written by Rainford Precision | Jun 5, 2025 10:30:00 AM

Rainford Precision will highlight its reputation as a leader in ultra-high precision micro-machining at the forthcoming Medical Technology Ireland exhibition.

Scheduled for 24th and 25th September at Galway Racecourse in County Galway, Rainford Precision will present a variety of custom solutions tailored for the Irish medical manufacturing sector at Stand L56.

Advanced Precision Machining Solutions for MedTech

Rainford will present cutting-edge technologies including the Kern range of ultra-precise 5-axis machining centres, the Benzinger range of turning centres, Finepart micro abrasive waterjet cutting technology, the newly announced range of Innolite ultra-precision turning machines for the optics industry, and cutting tools from some of the world's most prestigious brands.

Kern 5-Axis Machining Centres: Unparalleled Precision

Kern is renowned for its unparalleled levels of precision with machine tools that comfortably achieve precision and repeatability levels of ±1 micron during 5-axis machining. At the event on the west coast of Ireland, experts from Rainford Precision will present the incredible speed, precision, and productivity of the Kern machines, demonstrating why they are trusted by medical device manufacturers worldwide.

Introducing Innolite: Ultra-Precision for Optical Manufacturing

Also making its debut at the MedTech show is the Innolite range. Innolite specialises in the field of advanced diamond machining and ultra-precise machine tools for optical manufacturing, bringing an entirely new brand to Ireland. This addition strengthens Rainford's portfolio of precision solutions for demanding medical and optical applications.

PEMTec: Revolutionary Electrochemical Machining

Fresh to the Rainford stable is the PEMTec brand. Recognised as world leaders in precision electrochemical metal machining (PECM), this process enables metal parts to be machined with accuracy and repeatability in the sub-micron range, achieving a surface quality of 0.03µm without contact. This non-contact machining method opens new possibilities for delicate medical components and complex geometries.

Finepart Micro Abrasive Waterjet: Redefining Micro Precision

The Rainford Precision team is also relishing the opportunity to present the Finepart micro abrasive waterjet cutting technology. With its 3, 4, and 5-axis waterjet machines, Finepart takes micro precision to a new level. It achieves a positional accuracy of ±2.5 microns, a repeatability of ±2 microns, and a typical cutting tolerance of ±10 microns. This makes Finepart ideal for intricate medical device components requiring exceptional accuracy.

Benzinger Turning Centres: German Precision and Flexibility

The new Benzinger range of turning centres will also be showcased at the Rainford stand. As is standard with any Rainford Precision brand, the German-manufactured Benzinger machines distinguish themselves with remarkable levels of precision, repeatability, productivity, and, above all, flexibility. These characteristics make them particularly suitable for the demanding requirements of medical device manufacturing.

Specialist Cutting Tools from Leading Brands

Rainford Precision will also present its latest cutting tool solutions from world-renowned brands such as Union Tool, Louis Bélet, Delmeco, Gloor, HOBE, Osawa, DTS, Iwata, 6C Tools, Swissceramill, and ATOM. These partners are industry leaders in the manufacture of drills, end mills, reamers, boring bars, threadmills, and slitting saws.

Within this diverse portfolio are tools for specialist applications and material types, including the Hufschmied brand of milling tools. The Graftor range of end mills from Hufschmied has been developed specifically for machining graphite and can double productivity rates and tool life compared to rival tools.

Complete Tool Investigation and Consultancy Service

With such a diverse platform of specialist cutting tools and micro tool solutions, Rainford has invested in a Keyence digital microscope to provide a complete tool investigation and consultancy service for customers in the UK and Ireland. This service ensures optimal tool selection and performance for precision medical manufacturing applications.
