Copper & Brass.

Dense-material X-ray gauging for electrical and heat-exchange products.

Copper and brass mills produce electrical-grade strip, heat-exchanger fin stock, and brass sheet for architectural and munitions applications. High density and narrow tolerance tolerances demand tightly calibrated X-ray gauges, the Perfecta-100 and Perfecta-40 series are standard across North American copper mills.

PROVEN IN COPPER & BRASS

Dual-alloy strip gauging

A typical application: a Perfecta-100 on a reversing cold mill producing thin electrical strip, with a calibration protocol covering copper and brass alloys on the same head, switchable at the HMI.

One gauge, two alloys, no recalibration downtime between runs.
Typical outcome of multi-alloy calibration setups
ELECTRICAL AND HEAT EXCHANGE STRIP

Dense material, narrow tolerance.

Send the alloys, the strip width and the tolerance you hold today. We will size the head and quote what you will hold on your product.
