Mate Gauge Virtual Micrometer for tension levelling lines


Virtual Micrometer

All the capabilities of a standard micrometer – but on your production line – letting you measure continuously, faster and in multiple ways. 


Simply set your desired locations (centered or custom) specify the number of Vmics measurements needed, anvil sizes for each, and press start. Instantly receive comprehensive thickness information and other  KPIs on your dashboard.




How it works on your lines

Mate Gauge technology is built around a continuously-scanning Virtual Micrometer. A highly-accurate single point measurement is moved continuously across the strip to give the full cross-sectional thickness with thousands of individual thickness measurements organized to match real-world measuring, as if an operator was doing it by hand. 


Just faster. More often. And without stopping your lines.

Mate Gauge understands your process and challenges

Is your steel production experiencing common issues like: 


 inconsistent quality control 

 material wastage due to over-thickness 

 disruptive downstream  equipment jams ?



Dealing with optimizing the RTL process can be a daunting task with a continuous display of the thickness being achieved. With Mate Gauge operators can adjust the tension levels and roller positions based on this feedback to achieve the desired thickness uniformity.


The advantages of integrating Mate Gauge
 into your tension levelling lines​
FOR YOU


 Increased efficiency

 Minimized material wastage

 Reduced production downtime

 Automate production 

 Customer satisfaction




FOR YOUR 
CUSTOMERS


 Consistently high-quality steel products that meet their specifications
