, /PRNewswire/ -- Midland Manufacturing, part of OPW's Fluid Transfer Solutions business unit and Dover (NYSE: DOV), today announced the launch of its Gauge Device Online Tool, which enables railcar manufacturers and repair shops to manage gauge devices via desktop computer or mobile device. Gauge devices are used to assist in the loading of railcars, especially those transporting high-value and dangerous or hazardous liquids. The new Gauge Device Online Tool allows manufacturers and repair shops to order a new gauge device or facilitate repairs for an existing unit in a matter of minutes online. "The Gauge Device Online Tool is a game-changer for our customers," said Don Olson, Product Manager for Midland Manufacturing. "Streamlining the ordering and repair process saves valuable time and helps reduce the risk of errors, making the entire experience more efficient and stress-free. The ability to look up serial numbers and adjust specific-gravity markings helps ensure that our customers can easily adapt to changing commodity requirements, improving both accuracy and flexibility in their operations." All of the forms required to procure new gauge devices or repair parts have been formatted intuitively to guide the user through the various stages of the ordering process, helping to ensure more efficient, stress-free, time-sensitive and accurate orders. The Gauge Device Online Tool also allows users to look up the serial number of an existing gauge device, enabling them to modify the specific-gravity markings on a gauge rod if or when the railcar is used to transport different commodities. The gauge rod will remain the same geometrically, but the scale affixed to the rod will be modified to match the specific handling requirements of the commodity that is being loaded.
