HOT-DIP ZINC-ALUMINUM WIRE COATING LINE


Difference in protective metal coatings

  • Zinc (ZN) — is the most common and traditional anti-corrosion metal coating. It is applied by immersing the sheet steel in a zinc melt, or by electroplating it. But the galvanic method (the method of applying the metal coating on the surface by electrolysis) does not give an opportunity to apply a sufficient zinc layer for good corrosion protection.

    The higher the zinc content, the thicker its thickness on each side and the higher the corrosion protection.

  • Galfan (ZA) — zinc alloy containing from 4.5% to 6.2% aluminum. Due to aluminum, the alloy is characterized by higher corrosion resistance than that of a simple zinc coating.

    Upon contact with the environment, aluminum oxidizes very quickly, forming an oxide film. The alumina film is chemically stable, does not deteriorate over time, and is an excellent protection for problematic (from the point of view of corrosion) places of the metal sheet: cutting edges and scratches on the coating surface. Due to the presence of aluminum, the development of corrosion under the polymer coating will develop much more slowly, the likelihood of peeling paint from the protective coating is reduced.

  • Aluzinc (AZ) — a melt containing 55% aluminum, 43.4% zinc, 1.6% silicon. The coating combines the high protective properties of aluminum and the protective properties of zinc. Compared with galvanizing, this type of protective metal coating gives a 3-6 times increase in the durability of the steel sheet.

    Aluzinc reflects 75% of thermal radiation, and silicon additives increase the heat resistance of the alloy. The silicon content in this alloy increases the corrosion resistance and promotes particularly strong adhesion of the coating to the base, prevents the penetration of the oxidizing atmosphere into the metal, thereby creating a reliable protective barrier.

An important indicator of corrosion resistance is the time of destruction of the protective metal coating before rust on 5% of the surface when the test sample is placed in salt fog.

The rate of destruction of the protective coating in salt fog, respectively:

  • Zinc - 10 hours/µm
  • Galfan - 25 hours/µm
  • Aluzinc - 100 hours/µm

Heat Treatment Furnace for Wire

Heat Treatment Furnace for Wire


The main purposes of the heat treatment process for the wire are:

  1. improving the structure
  2. giving the metal strength
  3. giving the metal durability and other necessary properties


Heat treatment process usually includes the following steps:

  1. heating to a certain temperature
  2. maintaining that temperature for a certain amount of time
  3. cooling


Type of heating:

  • natural gas (8500 × 4.18 kJ/m3)
  • electricity four-wire three-phase 50Hz system
We make the design of the furnace according to customer`s requirements.



Annealing Furnace

Annealing furnace consists of the following components:

  • 5 heating zones
  • efficient burning system
  • air supply system
  • smoke removal system


There are several advantages of the Annealing Furnace:

  • High heating efficiency
  • Low maintenance
  • Low gas consumption
  • Low maintenance costs


The furnace is durable and has its own design, which allows to have a quick assembly and an easy further use. For isolation we use bricks which have strength grade 26 (ISOLITE JAPAN).
