Commonly, Galfan is produced in-line with the galvanising
bath. Consequently, it requires space but it also imposes the
use of one position per galfanised wire on your galvanising
bath.
FIB has developed a technology that allows galfanising
“off-line” of some galvanised wires in this compact
solution, giving the advantage of flexibility in the
manufacturing programme, and the number of wires in
the galvanising line becomes independent of the Galfan
programme.
This also allows the upgrade of existing galvanising lines
with limited space.

Optimising systems order
Steel Dynamics has confirmed an order with Tenova
Goodfellow for the supply and purchase of two EFSOP
holistic optimisation® systems for both EAF batteries at its
SDI, Butler, Indiana, USA, steelmaking facility.
Tenova’s innovative technology and value proposition
will provide full spectrum evaluation via upstream and
downstream offgas analysis and water detection technology
for all four EAF shells.
The scope of supply will also include newly developed
optical sensors for the measuring of off-gas velocity and
temperature.
The order, which was received in December 2014,
included project work that was scheduled to begin
immediately with the manufacturing of hardware and
sensors at Nova Analytical Systems, TGI’s Hamilton,
Ontario, Canada, production facility. Installation and
commissioning of the systems was scheduled to take
place by April.
