Who Are We?
WHO ARE WE?
Baty Baty has a rich history dating back to 1932 when it originally specialised in manufacturing high precision dial indicators and related instruments such as cylinder bore gauges. Over time, the company diversified into non-contact measurement, introducing Optical Profile Projectors and the renowned Baty ‘Shadograph’ series, which has set the industry standard. These acclaimed products are proudly made in Bradford, England, holding the prestigious Made in Britain Accreditation. Building on its gauging heritage, Baty expanded its portfolio by acquiring John Bull and British Indicators, broadening its offerings to include calipers and flexible fixturing. The product range was further enhanced in the eighties with the introduction of Baty’s pioneering camera-based Video Inspectors, later improved by Video Edge Detection (VED) technology, which significantly increased accuracy, repeatability, and measuring speed. In 2010, Baty joined the Bowers Group, a move that strengthened its position in the metrology industry by offering a comprehensive range of metrology instruments, from hand tools to advanced vision systems, catering to diverse measurement needs in modern manufacturing. In 2023, the Baty manufacturing facility relocated to Bradford from Burgess Hill, integrating seamlessly with Bowers Group’s operations to facilitate faster and more efficient production of Baty products.
