The coils to be fed into the galvanizer have different geometry and the finished product has to have different coating thickness and a variety of other parameters, depending on the batch and each individual customer. As a result, reconfiguration of the machine is often required during the transition from one coil to another, and sometimes so-called «transitional» coils from the stock storage are used to achieve a smooth transition from one coil to another. The more such operations occur, the less efficient the line is.
