Galvanneal Strip Thermometer - GST

The Land GST has been specifically developed to provide continuous and accurate measurement of both temperature and emissivity on coated steel strip during the galvanneal reaction.

Key Features Key Benefits
  • Accurate non contact temperature measurement on steel during the galvannealing process.
  • Automatic emissivity compensation for variations in the reaction zone.
  • Continuous emissivity readout for indication of extent of reaction.
  • Reliable, drift free operation with a minimum of maintenance.
  • By maintaining control of the reaction zone, GST accomodates rapid changes of line speed and furnace power with changes of substrate or coating weight.
  • The furnace is optimised to reduce heating costs, maximise throughput and avoid excessive over-reaction which would resultin powdering or flaking of the coating during subseqent forming operations.
  • Land GST systems ensure the production of consistent, high quality, premium-coated steel, demanded by the automotive industry.
  • Without the close control provided by GST systems, manufacturers produce lower grade coated steels which cannot be sold to customers requiring premium-grade products.
