Continuous galvanizing line for steel strips
Fagor Arrasate S.Coop.
Dip galvanising lines are specially designed to reduce investment and guarantee suitable coating in the amount and quality required, while maintaining the metallographic characteristics of the substrate. The uniformity of the coating is excellent, and good adherence is ensured throughout the entire range of thicknesses and speeds. The lines are equipped with loopers (vertical or horizontal) to weld the end of one coil to the beginning of the next in a continuous process without stopping the line in the galvanising area at any time. The furnaces can have two sections in order to optimise heating. The zinc dip tanks have the additional equipment required for filling, draining and handling, and for maintaining the correct temperature. The bath level is automatically maintained constant, detecting when a new ingot needs to be fed to the system. The lines may include skin passing, levelling and edge trimming sections. Depending on the production, there may be one or two winders.
