The Platform

One platform, built for the mill floor.

All Eagle Eye systems share a common hardware platform with application-specific software modules, which reduces spare parts and simplifies maintenance training.

Industrial Cameras

High-speed GigE digital cameras in ruggedized, water-cooled enclosures rated for continuous operation in radiant heat, steam, water spray, and scale dust.

Common Architecture

A shared hardware platform with application-specific software modules across every system, reducing spare parts and simplifying maintenance training.

L1 / L2 Integration

OPC UA, Modbus TCP, and EtherNet/IP supported natively. Direct integration with PLC, HMI, and Level 2 process computers.

Capabilities

Application capabilities by product.

What each configuration measures out of the box. Add-on modules extend the platform further.

Why Global Gauge

400+ installations worldwide.

Across hot mills, cold mills, and process lines.

Single-Source Integration

One vendor, one platform, one server for all vision and width measurement across the entire mill. Simplified procurement, training, spares, and long-term support.

Proven Mill Performance

Purpose-built for hot strip and cold mill environments. Water-cooled, sealed optics and ruggedized construction are standard features, not options.

Common Platform

HM3100, HM3200, CM3100, CM3200, and SL3200 share common hardware and software architecture, with common spare parts and streamlined maintenance training.

Measurable Yield Impact

Crop optimization delivers yield improvement within the first months. Width-gauge feedback reduces overrolling and improves dimensional consistency.
