A.G.T. Leads The Way In Laser Thickness Measurement

Advanced Gauging Technologies was mentioned in the March 2015 issue of American Metal Market as a pioneer in the transition from isotope to laser based thickness gauging. Bill Beck’s article highlights the various ways that the metal industry, and its service centers, are using technology to enhance productivity in ways not thought possible even a decade ago.

You can find the whole article “Technology centers” over at the American Metal Market website but here is an excerpt with our mention:

Perhaps no segment of the metals service center industry has experienced more technological change in the 21st Century than metals testing. Waltham, Mass.-based Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. provides its service center customers with sophisticated handheld alloy analyzers. And Plain City, Ohio-based Advanced Gauging Technologies LLC has helped pioneer the transition of measuring the thickness of coil, sheet or strip metal from isotope gauges to laser gauges, eliminating the use of radioactive material and giving operators a measure of precision that is hard to surpass.

A.G.T. Implements Technician Certification Program

Advanced Gauging has implemented a new Thickness Gauge Certification Program to assist in the ongoing training and development of our Field Technicians and other key A.G.T. personnel. The program includes comprehensive tests on the knowledge and ability to service various models of thickness gauges, including many obsolete gauges whose manufactures are no longer in business. Gauges that are currently covered under this program include the Gamma GR100 and GR200, D.M.C. 410 and 450, Weston 5310 and 5320, Measurex MDX350 and the Loral 3500, along with our own AGT400 and AGT800 gauges. We also plan to add additional gauges in the near future. This new program is designed to be a continuous process that involves regular training and the sharing of knowledge between our technicians so that you can be sure you always receive the absolute best service available in today’s market.
