ANN ARBOR, Mich., July 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanced Photonix® (NYSE MKT: API), the leading supplier of terahertz systems to industry, announces today that it has sold two new T-Gauge® sensor systems. The first sale is a spare or backup system for an existing T-Gauge® system used in a critical manufacturing process overseas. The second system will be deployed on an industrial manufacturing line to provide 100% inspection of roofing materials for quality control. This inspection system is expected to be the first in a number of systems deployed to this customer.

The ability of terahertz energy to penetrate non-conducting materials allows inspection of solid and liquid products after packaging. The wide frequency content and high precision of the T-Gauge® system provides sensitivity to both physical and chemical changes in the product. Measurement of thickness, density, and certain material properties can be used to monitor the quality of the product being produced.
"With the addition of more systems deployed internationally we are continuing to develop a strong global support network for our value-added resellers and customers. This new deployment to a roofing manufacturer expands our applications to a new customer in an existing market. We would like to thank our value-added reseller, Thermo Fisher Scientific, for their hard work in bringing in this new opportunity," said API CEO Richard Kurtz.
