Quality plays a pivotal role for Amar Udyog, with components created to meet all customer requirements and specifications. This quality depends on reliable and accurate temperature
measurements at the foundry stage.

Amar Udyog had been using dip thermocouples for these measurements. These have a long measurement time – typically 13-14 seconds – and require an operator to get quite close to the
process. They also use disposable tips, which must be replaced frequently, costing time and money.

Their use of thermocouples meant that Amar Udyog experienced high costs for maintenance, calibration, and monthly consumables, including a typical monthly spend of INR 95,000 on
replacement thermocouple tips. The company wanted a solution that would deliver cost savings as well as better measurement accuracy and user safety.
