AGT800 Gains Popularity with Service Centers
Our most popular gauging system this year, hands down, is the AGT800 Laser Thickness Gauge. Introduced late in 2013, this unique optical based gauge uses state-of-the-art Keyence laser sensors which are mounted on a C-frame above and below the strip to be measured. Each sensor emits a class ll laser beam and receives the beam back on a RS-CMOS pixel array. The gauge determines the distance to the target material and precise material thickness is then calculated. Please contact our Sales Department for additional information or to schedule a visit to operate this gauge first-hand.
