Rainford In Good Health for MedTech Show

3 June 2025

Rainford Precision will highlight its reputation as a leader in ultra-high precision micro-machining at the forthcoming Medical Technology Ireland exhibition. Scheduled for September 24th and 25th at the Galway Racecourse in County Galway, Rainford Precision will present a variety of custom solutions tailored for the Irish medical manufacturing sector at Stand L56.

Rainford will present technologies such as 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 is renowned for its unparalleled levels of precision with machine tools that comfortably achieve precision and repeatability levels of +/-1micron 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, as well as introduce the new Innolite range. Innolite specialises in the field of advanced diamond turning and ultra-precise machine tools for optical manufacturing, bringing an entirely new brand to Ireland at the MedTech show.

Also new to the Rainford stable is the PEMTec brand. Recognised as world leaders in precision electrochemical 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 – all without contact. Imagine the possibilities!

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 plateau. It can achieve a positional accuracy of +/-2.5 microns, a repeatability of +/-2 microns, and a typical cutting tolerance of +/-10 microns.


The new Benzinger (www.benzinger.de) 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.

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. The respective 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. 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. Be sure to visit us at Stand L56 during the Medical Technology Ireland exhibition from September 24th to 25th.
