Software Solutions
Powerful applications designed for your specific material types
Gauge and Go App
For Continuous Strips
The Gauge and Go app measures at discrete locations across the material. The c-frame travels to preset locations and measures there for a determined amount of time.
- ✓ Clear display of thickness readings at preset locations
- ✓ Ideal for continuous strips on conveyor systems
- ✓ Automated scanning with configurable timing
Best For: Lead strip lines, rolling mills, continuous production
Plates App
For Multiple Small Samples
The Plates app is used for measuring on lines where several small samples will pass the gauge within the duration of each scan. Perfect for battery plate production.
- ✓ Measures multiple samples in a single scan cycle
- ✓ Optimized for pasted plate thickness monitoring
- ✓ Full cross-sectional profile capture
Best For: Battery plate pasting lines, discrete part measurement
