⚠️ Challenges in Steel and Metal Processing

  • Thickness drift during rolling or tension leveling
  • Uneven slitting or edge defects
  • Irregular profiles in high-speed coil lines
  • Increased material waste during setup or material changeovers

Maintaining tight tolerances across wide coils, especially under thermal stress or line speed variation, is a constant challenge.

✅ How We Reduce Scrap and Improve Results 

Mate Gauge helps you detect and fix issues in real time. The MG5 provides full-width, non-contact measurement with up to 86-inch stroke lengths, ideal for coil and sheet lines. For slitting operations or strip processing, the MG-CLS ensures accurate, edge-to-edge control — even in corrosive or high-speed environments.

With our mgOS software, you can:

  • Monitor real-time thickness profiles
  • Get instant alerts for deviations
  • Export data to PDF and CSV for QA compliance

📈 Key Benefits:

  • Up to 12% reduction in coil or sheet scrap
  • Fewer rejects from out-of-spec profiles
  • Real-time adjustment before slitting or coiling
  • Built for rugged conditions in steel and aluminum mills

From setup to final coil, Mate Gauge gives you the confidence to deliver precision consistently — with less scrap and more uptime.




We've thought of everything so you don't have to. 

From edge-to-edge profiling to real-time alerting and built-in thermal compensation, our gauges are designed to catch every detail that could cost you material. We’ve already engineered the solutions to help you reduce scrap without second-guessing.

All you need to do is choose the one that fits your line, we’ll handle the rest.
