We are celebrating two years of our in house health and fitness program. Every Tuesday and Thursday our employees enjoy an exercise regimen with Personal Trainer Greg Jasnikowski. Employees have seen great results and look forward to getting more in shape and flexible each week.
Advanced Gauging Technologies believes in giving back to the community. We show our gratitude by donating to various charities each year. In 2015 we sent contributable donations to the Honor Flight Network, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Mid-Ohio Food Bank, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Ronald McDonald House and Wounded Warrior Project. To learn more about these charities, please click here.
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.
