Advanced Gauging Technologies LLC, Plain City, Ohio, offers a new noncontact laser thickness gauge that can measure any strip material ranging from 0.040 to 0.750 inch in thickness. There is no radioactive source and no federal or state licensing requirements.

The AGT800 Laser Thickness Measurement and S.P.C. Reporting System is designed for measuring metals and any other materials that are processed in coil, sheet or strip form. It uses the latest in laser triangulation technology and provides fast, accurate and reliable thickness measurements.
