4. GC : Process of hot dip galvanisation
1) Before processing, the metal must be cleaned of rust and dirt
( stripping )
2) The steel has to undergo rigorous chemical preparation
3) The steel is dipped into the bath of hot zinc ( 450° C )
4) As soon as the steel is on temperature, the reaction between the steel and zinc is done
5) Finally you have a steel with several layers of zinc.
6) The thicknesses vary from 55 to 70 microns of zinc. ( control ) 1 2

8. Standard for electro zinc plating
Standard : NF A / DIN / EN / ISO 2081 & 82
Expectations: Minimum thickness of zinc : 1cm² ;

9. EZ : Process of electro zinc plating
1) At first the parts to be coated are degreased, cleaned and dried
The baths used consist acid or alkaline solutions of zinc salts
2) The part is dipped into the zinc bath
3) The part is conected the cathode and the zinc ( 99,99 % pure ) is connected to the anode
4) Than the part is cleaned
5) After cleaning the part will be passived. The passivation is a chemical reaction which gives the blue colour to the WMCT
6) Finally the part is drying and ready for packaging 3 1 1 2 6 5 4
