Established in 1981, SolveTech, Inc. is a leader in the design and application of non-contact thickness/basis weight gauging systems based on dielectric measurement principles. The first generation of gauges were developed in 1986 to test variability in thickness on polyester film lines. The company went on to enhance the technology and, in 1988, introduced the first commercially viable, double-sided (parallel plate) capacitance gauges. This technology brought significant new levels of performance in accuracy and speed, along with the concepts of user-definable measurement footprints and gaps.

In 1989, SolveTech developed and installed the first Array gauges. These gauges provided the first high speed "terrain maps" of extruded products. In subsequent years, there has been continuous improvement to the technology. It has been successfully applied to numerous applications involving a wide variety of materials and geometries.
