Thickness & width measurement gauges
On March 27, 2025, California Steel Industries received two brand-new AGT400s for their 52.5″ #2 CGL line. They’ll be measuring various steel alloys.
These two AGT800s will be the company’s seventh and eighth gauges they’ve purchased. AGT is excited to continue working with California Steel and provide them with reliable, durable measuring tools. Not only will our gauges efficiently measure CSI’s material, but it will do so safely and accurately, while minimalizing downtime.
Mill Steel has completed the upgrade process for their obsolete GR100 Isotope Gauge. Now, Mill Steel will enjoy the benefits of a fully operational AGT400, complete with upgraded electronics and data storage.
Our AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge is capable of measuring various metals. For coil processing lines such as slitters, CTL, galvanizing, and pickle lines, the AGT400 is an excellent solution for measurement needs. Mill Steel will enjoy a great return on investment by re-using some of their obsolete gauge and upgrading it to an AGT400!
We at Advanced Gauging Technologies are proud to announce the startup of two AGT400 Isotope upgrades in Mill Steel’s Melvindale plant. One upgrade is on their #79 line, and the other is on the #74 line. Mill Steel has worked with us on upgrading many of their obsolete isotope gauges, and has enjoyed consistent service, inspections, and accurate results.
Aside from the precise and reliable readings expected from all of our products, the AGT400 Isotope Thickness Gauge is notably resilient to any harsh conditions found in a plant. Whether it be on a pickling line, slitter, or rolling mill, our AGT400 will continue to work with the same quality that all of our customers have come to expect. Mill Steel and countless others have made investments to durability, reliability, and excellence.
Steel Technologies of Portage, Indiana has completed their startup for a brand-new AGT800XT Laser Thickness Gauge. This gauge will be located on a 72″ Fagor slitting line, measuring various steel alloys.
Steel Technologies has been a longstanding customer of ours, and will continue to reap the benefits of our many products. With an AGT800XT Laser Thickness Gauge, they will be able to measure steel thickness without needing to slow or stop production, and will have access to data collection and storage for all of their measurements. The gauge stores SPC information either onto a disk or network drive, which boosts efficiency and removes the clutter of paper storage. With this investment, Steel Technologies is investing in their own long-term success.
Mill Steel’s AGT400 upgrade has shipped to their facility in Birmingham, Alabama. Their previous GR100, located on their 72″ Braner Slitting Line, will be upgraded and started up in February of 2025. Advanced Gauging Technologies’ technicians will replace the outdated source head, wiring, and electroni
Obsolete gauges can be more trouble than they’re worth– many companies don’t service them, and have shut down businesses many years ago. At AGT, our goal to make sure that nothing goes to waste. Where decommissioning an isotope gauge and purchasing a whole new one can be time-consuming and very expensive, our AGT400 Upgrade service looks to circumvent the headache and provide a two-way solution at a fraction of the price. In our turbulent economy, this service can make a world of difference. If you have an obsolete isotope gauge that could use an upgrade, you can find our Upgrade service explained in detail here. We remain dedicated not only to providing turnkey measurement solutions, but doing so as conveniently as we can. That’s Measuring Made Easy.
