Mate Gauge for Cast Lead Strip
Uninterrupted monitoring of lead strip casting. Unlock total control with our turnkey solution, featuring Virtual Micrometer + Scanning Frame + Measuring App.
Are you facing challenges in your
lead strip casting process?
Are your operators waiting until the end of a production run to measure thickness?
Are your process adjustments slow and too late to improve strip thickness control?
Do you know if your operators are overcompensating by making the strip too thick, wasting valuable lead?
Mate Gauge turnkey solution transforms your cast lead strip production
Mate Gauge for cast lead strip effectively resolves your challenges by integrating non-contact laser measuring technology - customized for lead strips-with intuitive displays and controls. This system streamlines data collection and displays it in a format that is straightforward for operators to understand, thereby improving both operational efficiency and the quality of the product. Moreover, the Mate Gauge turnkey solution offers an added advantage: it automatically adjusts slitter speeds to regulate strip thickness, eliminating the need for manual intervention by operators.
Virtual Micrometer
All the capabilities of a standard micrometer – but on your production line – letting you measure continuously, faster and in multiple ways.
CASE STUDY 1. Cast Lead Strip
"The MG-CLS with closed loop operation simulates a near-perfect operator taking frequent high-accuracy measurements and making the exact required adjustments to casting speed to lock the strip thickness as closely as possible to the target."
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.
