A.G.T. Completes an AGT800 Startup for PlatePlus in Granite City, Illinois!

Advanced Gauging Technologies often works with OEM line manufacturers to implement thickness gauges onto lines before they are installed. Because we work with these manufacturers directly, they are able to design their lines with the perfect location for one of our thickness gauges.

This was just the case with PlatePlus Inc. in Granite City, Illinois. They recently had a brand new 78″ Cut-To-Length line installed from one of our OEM line manufacturing partners. Long before it was ever installed, they knew it would be extremely beneficial to have an AGT800 Laser Thickness Gauge on their line. We worked with the OEM to ensure our gauge could be implemented flawlessly and after completing the startup this week, that was certainly the case.

The AGT800 on this new line will be measuring HRS and HRSPO from 36″ to 78″ and will provide the most accurate non-contact thickness measurement available.

Steel Technologies in Eminence, KY Orders an Upgrade!

A.G.T. has just received an order for an AGT400 upgrade from Steel Technologies in Eminence, Kentucky. They are upgrading their old and outdated DMC C-frame to our brand new AGT400 C-frame. Steel Tech has already ditched their DMC electronics cabinet for this gauge and replaced it with our electronics cabinet several years ago. Based on how well our cabinet has been performing they knew it was the right time to upgrade the rest of the gauge.

By installing a new C-frame Steel Technologies will now have an entirely new system to ensure they are receiving the most accurate and repeatable non-contact thickness measurement available. And their customers can rest assured that they are receiving exactly what they paid for. That’s #MeasuringMadeEasy.
