Software Solutions

Specialized applications for different measurement needs.

Gauge and Go App

The Gauge and Go app measures at discrete locations across the material. The c-frame travels to a preset location and measures there for a determined amount of time. Measuring this way is ideal for continuous strips, allowing for a clear display of thickness readings at these locations.


Plates App

The Plates app is used for measuring on lines where several small samples will pass the gauge within the duration of each scan. This app provides measurements for lanes, representing the sides of each plate as well as overall plate averages.

Installation Options
OPTION 1
 MG3 Installed on the Wet Side
 MG3 installed on the Dry Side 


Measures thickness just before curing, providing the most accurate final thickness readings. Ideal for panel lines without a stacker.

OPTION 2
OPTION 2
 MG3 integrated with a Stacker Conveyor


Space-efficient option that integrates directly with stacker conveyors, optimizing line layout while maintaining precise measurement control.


Positioned closest to the paster for the fastest response times, seamlessly fitting into existing control loops without extending the production line.


Accessories

The MG3 Stand ensures a stable and secure mounting point for the MG3 system. We offer specialized stands for both the wet side and dry side of the pasting line, allowing seamless integration based on the gauge’s placement and specific production requirements.
