Mirror like through customized visualization
The stainless steel bands and sheets must be cleaned after the rolling and subsequent thermal treatment, before they are coiled up. Impurities are removed by an acid treatment. Numerous parameters like acid dosage and band control must be monitored permanently - the task of a reliable visualization software that helps to optimize the productivity of a plant by reducing the amount of chemicals necessary and by saving costs.

Bright prospects
Galvanized steel sheets play a major role in industrial manufacturing, for example in automobile construction. An approved method of protecting the sheets against rust is to apply a zinc coating using the hot-dip galvanizing process. The equipment for this is complex and places high demands on a modern process control system.
