It’s no secret that revenue has been inconsistent for many steel processing companies this year. For many cases, that may mean cutting down on spending and focusing on production, or pushing projects further into the future to maintain profits. Thankfully, at Advanced Gauging Technologies, we’ve been working for decades to provide cost-effective solutions for customers with existing obsolete Isotope Gauges.

Many companies may still have gauges whose manufacturers have ended service for their products years ago, or have gone out of business themselves entirely. Instead of going through the time and money of decommissioning one gauge and purchasing an entire brand-new gauge, AGT offers our AGT400 Upgrade service. For a substantially discounted price, our technicians will replace outdated parts to convert the obsolete gauge into an AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge, complete with our SPC reporting services. You can find more about the Thickness Upgrade Service here and more about our AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge here. At AGT, we work to offer the greatest return on investment while providing high-quality, durable, and reliable solutions.

Liberty Steel has recently purchased a 72″ ProEco slitter from Worthington Industries with one of our AGT400 gauges included. Liberty Steel has purchased a replacement source for the AGT400 Isotope Gauge, and will be installing it between March and April of next year.

Due to the durability and long lifespan of our AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge, buying our used gauges is a cost-effective, low-risk solution for companies interested in our gauges. The AGT400 has spent decades building its reputation as the most dependable thickness gauge in the industry. On top of the discounted price of a used gauge, companies like Liberty Steel Products will enjoy lifetime service from our own AGT technicians. With both a dependable gauge and reliable service, buying used is another way to keep your facility efficient and speedy.

Advanced Gauging Technologies has completed the startup of a new AGT800 Laser Thickness Gauge. This Gauge was installed onto a new 62″ Athader Slitting Line and will be measuring the thickness of various steel alloys.

Their AGT800 will not only provide quick, accurate, and reliable thickness readings, but will also store data locally or on a network. The data is also utilized to create printable reports with diagrams and charts. Our non-contact, high precision laser gauge ensure accurate readings and saves their company from downtime to measure and re-measure their products.

Allied Tube & Conduit’s AGT400 has now been started up. This AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge will be used to measure various steel alloys on their 72″ ProEco pickle line.

The AGT400 is uniquely effective with pickle lines, as they are durable and can easily handle the conditions present in pickling lines and similar applications. Not only will Allied Tube enjoy SPC reporting, full-web oscillation, and printable data collection, but they will also have the peace of mind knowing that their gauge can handle the rough environment of a pickle line. Allied Tube has smartly invested in a great solution for their application!
