It is reported that, following a successful test phase, Wuppermann Stahl GmbH, has incorporated the Continuous Vertical Galvanizing Line into its Judenburg hot dip galvanizing line.

This process was developed by SMS Demag AG. Wuppermann is utilizing this innovative method for the development of new zinc alloys.

In addition to the quality related advantages of the CVGL process, a decisive factor in adopting this process is the great flexibility of CVGL as regards the ability to quickly change the zinc baths used in the process.

This makes it possible to test a great variety of Al Mg alloyed zinc baths with small volumes of molten metal at very short time intervals and, in this way, to determine the best product range obtainable from this examination of alloys.
