Lead Burning Bath

Construction

Steel construction with ceramic lining. The hot air of the burner is led through channels around the kettle. There is no direct flame contact with the kettle. This leads to an increased service life.

The Process

Oil residues are removed from the wire before it enters the pickling line. The guidance is achieved in the immersion bath via a ceramic immersion stone. At the inlet and outlet this is done by rollers.

Benefits

• An improved zinc coating is achieved
• Consistent product quality
• Long kettle service life
• Improved economic efficiency
