Product Overview
- HiTo Engineering Continuous Color Coating / Continuous Galvanizing (Galvalume) Line is a turnkey coil processing line for hot-dip zinc/aluminum alloy coating and organic color coating of strip steel.
- Designed for cold-rolled low-carbon steel (SPCC/SPCD, JIS G3141) with thickness 0.12–2.5 mm, width 700–1550 mm, coating weights 30–300 g/m2 and product grades CQ, DQ, G550 (JIS G3302).
- Line speeds: entry 260 m/min, processing 200 m/min, exit 260 m/min. Annual capacity range: 60,000–300,000 MT/Y. Connected electrical load ~2,500–4,500 kW.
Product Features
- Complete line equipment: uncoiler, welder, storage, degreasing (chemical or high-efficiency electrolytic), continuous annealing furnace, zinc/Al pot with air knife, skin pass, tension leveler, oiler, shear, recoiler, straightening and finishing units.
- Flexible cleaning modes (horizontal spray + vertical immersion) and advanced electrolytic cleaning to reduce oil contamination.
- Combined non-oxidizing furnace (NOF) and radiant tube heating (RTH) for fast, efficient, uniform heating; jet-type ceramic induction heating zinc pot for uniform bath temperature and low slag.
- Protective gas cyclic spray cooling with variable-frequency control for precise strip temperature control; flue-gas waste heat recovery to preheat/heat cleaning sections.
- Real-time coating-thickness monitoring, fingerprint-resistant/fast-switching coating machine, and modern control system (vector frequency control, CPC/EPC correction, field bus) with English HMI and customizable configuration.
Product Value
- Delivers consistently high-quality coated steel with improved surface, shape and coating mechanical properties—suitable for demanding end-uses (e.g., home appliances).
- Energy-saving design (waste heat recovery, efficient heating systems) lowers operating costs and carbon footprint.
- Tailor-made solutions and global technology at competitive pricing provide high ROI and sustainable value growth.
- Robust after-sales and specialist technical support ensure production continuity and lower lifecycle costs.
Product Advantages
- High production flexibility and capacity to meet a wide range of customer requirements and line configurations.
- Precise process control (heating, cooling, air-knife, thickness monitoring) for uniform coatings and tight tolerances.
- Reduced contamination and better surface quality via advanced cleaning and furnace technologies.
- Lower maintenance and long component life (special refractory, induction heating pot, corrosion control measures).
- User-friendly, configurable control system in English and modular layout that reduces plant construction costs and speeds commissioning.
Application Scenarios
- Production of galvanized, galvalume and color-coated coils for roofing, cladding, construction panels, HVAC, and building materials.
- Feedstock for appliance and white-goods manufacturers requiring high surface quality.
- Automotive tier suppliers for body panels and structural components where coated steel is required.
- Metal furniture, electrical enclosures, and general coil distributors needing consistent coating weight and surface finish.
- New coil production lines or upgrades/retrofits where energy efficiency, precise coating control, and customizable plant layout are priorities.
