    Electrogalvanizing - Process and Product
    Oral Presentation
    Electro-galvanizing of steel strip represents an important industrial process of corrosion protection and surface finishing. Electro-galvanized steel sheets are used e.g. in the automotive industry, for household appliances, and in the electronics industry. The zinc coatings show a very homogenous microstructure, a good spot weldability, as well as excellent surface appearance and painting...

    Electrogalvanizing - Process and Product
    Oral Presentation
    Electrogalvanized steel sheets are widely used for electrical appliances and OA equipment because of their suitable appearance. It is well known that the lightness, the gloss, the press formability and the corrosion resistance of electrogalvanized steel sheets change depending on the crystal morphology of deposited Zn. Because control of the Zn morphology is important to improve these...

    In-Line Measurements and Quality Control
    Oral Presentation

    In industrial electro galvanizing lines, the performance of the dimensionally stable anodes (Ti + IrOx) is a crucial factor for product quality. Ageing of the anodes causes worsened zinc coating distribution on the steel strip and a significant increase in production costs due to a higher resistivity of the anodes. Up to now, the end of the anode lifetime has been detected by visual inspection...

    Electrogalvanizing - Process and Product
    Oral Presentation
    Along with the design of the body in white, the paint is very important for the unique esthetic impression of a car. Accordingly, car manufacturers put great emphasis on the quality and visual appearance of the paint. Many R&D- programs investigated the influence of roughness parameters (roughness, waviness, peak count) on the paint appearance of hot-dip galvanized steel sheet, but only few...
