How Hot-Dip Galvanizing Works
Let’s take a look at the galvanizing process from start to finish.
Introducing the HZALJ LED: Get to know the latest addition to AZZ’s LED Lineup
Since its inception, RIG-A-LITE’s SAF series has upheld a reputation as the industry’s leading choice for lighting industrial and hazardous environments. With the all-new HZALJ LED luminaire, we’re taking durability, performance, efficiency and installation flexibility to an even higher level.
Delayed Coking Unit (DCU) Process, Thermal Cycling and Bulge Mitigation Techniques
Beginning in the early 1990’s, AZZ Specialty Welding initiated the first Structural Weld Overlay’s (SWOL) in coke drums. With aid from partners in the industry, SWOL process was developed as an engineered repair method utilizing advanced techniques in laser mapping, fatigue analysis, and field machine welded execution.
Design Considerations for Galvanizing: Dissimilar Metals in Contact
When two different metals are in contact in a corrosive environment, one of the metals experiences accelerated galvanic corrosion while the other metal remains galvanically protected.
AZZ Specialty Welding’s Unifuse™ Weld Metal Overlay for Power Boilers
With roots dating back to the 1700’s, steam-generating boilers have evolved greatly based on industrial and residential demand. Learn how AZZ’s advanced welding technologies have kept pace.
AZZ Specialty Welding’s Unifuse™ Tubes & Panels for Black Liquor Recovery Boilers (BLRB)
AZZ Specialty Welding leads the way in alloying materials and innovative application methods to achieve longer life in the lower and upper furnace components exposed to the various forms of erosion & corrosion.
AZZ WSI Unifuse® Tubos e Painéis para Caldeiras de Recuperação de Licor Negro
Com mais de 2.000 trabalhos executados globalmente com Unifuse® em fornalhas desde 2000, a AZZ WSI é líder mundial em extensão de vida de caldeiras.
Design Considerations for Hot-Dip Galvanizing: Dissimilar Steel Chemistries
It is important to understand that the chemical composition of the material being galvanized can affect coating characteristics. However, corrosion protection typically is not affected by these coating characteristic differences.
AGA Awards: The Flying Ox
Adventure Park, located in Pigeon Forge near East Tennessee, is inspired by lumberjacks and the local logging industry. The park has many family friendly attractions like obstacle courses, competitions, a treetop free fall and rides. The Flying Ox is the world’s first cable-to-rail zip line roller coaster. At 1,000 feet long and 80 feet high, the Flying Ox dominates the landscape of Lumberjack Square.
AZZ Specialty Welding’s Unifuse™ Automated Weld Build-Up Process in FPSO Repairs
Because of the significant deposition rates achievable with this technology, justification for repair at sea vs. dry-dock was clear.
Primer Proyecto Para Reconstrucción de Cascos en Buque FPSO
Para este cliente, AZZ WSI evaluó el estado de la embarcación y definió que, realizando adaptaciones en los sistemas propietarios de soldadura automática, se podría trabajar desde el interior del casco del FPSO, en sitio, depositando capas de soldadura metálica para restaurar el espesor requerido por el diseño de la embarcación.
Processo de Soldagem de Reconstrução Automatizada (Build-Up) para restauração de costados de FPSOs
Para este cliente, AZZ WSI avaliou a condição do navio e definiu que realizando adaptações em um dos sistemas proprietários de solda automáticas, ele poderia ser habilitado para trabalho pelo lado de dentro do costado do FPSO, no mar, depositando camadas de solda metálica para restaurar a espessura requerida de projeto da embarcação.
Automated Weld Technology for FCCU Reactor & Regenerator Head Replacements
AZZ’s Hot-PulseTM GTAW process delivers superior weld quality, increased productivity rates and reduced risk to personnel versus conventional welding methods.
AGA Awards: Large Livestock Trailer
Livestock trailers are necessary in the agriculture and livestock industry. They are used daily to transport animals and can suffer considerable damage from overuse and harsh elements if not properly protected.
Design Considerations for Hot-dip Galvanizing: Cold Worked Steels
Any form of cold-working reduces steel’s ductility. Operations such as punching holes, notching, producing fillets of small radii, shearing, or sharp bending may lead to strain-age embrittlement of susceptible steels.
