The Benefits of On-Line Gauging
Tighten Process Variations, Reduce Energy Use, and Realize Saving
Off-Line Measurements
Off‑line measurement gives only snapshots: so one out‑of‑spec sample can make an entire production window suspect and costly to rework or scrap.
On-Line Gauging
On‑line measurement delivers real‑time control, alerting operators instantly to any drift so they can correct it immediately.
Measure in the Process
Simplicity and Versatility in Design and Operation
Continuous Product Flows
The gauge tolerates product height fluctuations of ± 100 mm without the measurement being affected.
