5 Exhibitors to Visit at Control International Trade Fair for Quality Assurance 2027

Carl Zeiss AG, headquartered in Oberkochen, Germany and founded in 1846, develops and manufactures metrology and quality assurance equipment across four technology families: tactile coordinate measuring machines, optical 3D systems, X-ray and CT inspection, and industrial microscopes. The Industrial Quality Solutions division employs more than 4,600 people worldwide and reported ZEISS Group revenue of EUR 11.9 billion in fiscal year 2024/25.

A distinguishing characteristic of the ZEISS portfolio is that all four measurement modalities feed into a single software environment, ZEISS INSPECT, which handles CAD comparison, trend analysis, and program management across CMMs, vision machines, and 3D scanners. Buyers can also access more than 60 ZEISS Quality Excellence Centers globally for demonstrations, calibration, and application support, backed by more than 100 sales and service locations.

Hexagon Metrology India Private Limited, headquartered in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, was incorporated in 2005 as a subsidiary of Hexagon AB. The company supplies coordinate measuring machines under the Leitz, DEA, and Brown & Sharpe brands alongside PC-DMIS dimensional measurement software, serving automotive, aerospace, energy, and medical manufacturers across the Indian subcontinent.

In September 2024 the company began manufacturing and shipping the ENSPEC CMM series from its Noida facility, making it the first Hexagon metrology product fully designed, assembled, and produced in India. The same Noida site hosts a NABL-accredited calibration laboratory covering dimensional and precision instruments, offering traceable calibration services for CMMs and articulated arms with local turnaround times.

KEYENCE DEUTSCHLAND GmbH, headquartered in Neu-Isenburg, Hessen, is the German subsidiary of KEYENCE Corporation, founded in Osaka in 1974. The German entity, established in 1990, employs around 384 people and sits within a global organisation of 12,784 staff serving 400,000 clients across 110 countries. Its product scope spans image dimension measurement systems, high-accuracy coordinate measurement, 2D and 3D laser profilers, vision systems, microscopes, and laser markers, all directed at factory automation and quality assurance workflows.

KEYENCE reports that 70 percent of its new products carry a 'World's First' or 'Industry's First' classification, a claim drawn from its own corporate disclosure. The company has maintained an operating profit above 40 percent for 25 consecutive years and operates with a 94.6 percent equity ratio, positioning it as a financially stable supplier for capital equipment decisions. Its 250 offices in 46 countries mean local application support is available to buyers in most manufacturing regions, a practical consideration for multi-site quality programmes.

Renishaw plc, headquartered in New Mills, Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, UK, was founded in 1973 and employs 5,256 people across 36 countries. The company designs and manufactures precision measurement and inspection systems spanning coordinate measuring machine probing, shop-floor gauging, machine tool in-cycle probes, and machine calibration hardware. Key product lines include the REVO 5-axis measurement system, the Equator flexible gauging system, SPRINT and OSP60 high-speed scanning probes for CNC machine tools, and the QC20 ballbar and laser interferometer calibration systems.

Renishaw reported record revenue of £713.0 million for the financial year ended 30 June 2025, reflecting consistent demand across automotive, aerospace, and precision-engineering sectors. The company's portfolio is designed to cover the full quality-assurance workflow from CMM inspection to on-machine probing and closed-loop process control through Renishaw Central, positioning it as a single metrology supplier across multiple stages of production. Its REVO system collects up to 4,000 data points per second using synchronised head and CMM motion, reducing dynamic errors at high scanning speeds. The Equator gauge maintains ±2 µm repeatability across a 5 °C to 50 °C operating range, making it suitable for direct deployment on production shop floors.

Jenoptik India Private Limited, incorporated in Bangalore in 2008, is the Indian subsidiary of Jenoptik AG, a photonics and metrology group listed on the MDAX and TecDAX with approximately 4,600 employees and €1.12 billion in consolidated revenue for fiscal year 2024. The subsidiary operates sales and service teams across Bangalore, Delhi, Pune, and Chennai, covering the group's metrology portfolio including the HOMMEL ETAMIC, TRIOPTICS, SwissOptic, and Otto Vision brands.

The product scope relevant to production quality engineers spans the Opticline C series for non-contact optical shaft measurement of workpieces up to 1,200 mm long and 230 mm in diameter, the entry-level Opticline CS series including the CS900 for turned and ground parts, the Visionline surface inspection line for detecting pores, cavities, and scratches, and the Formline F900 tactile device for shape, position, roughness, and twist measurement. This range positions the India entity to serve automotive, medical technology, aerospace, and forming industry buyers who need both optical and tactile measurement coverage from a single supplier with local service presence.
