Hot-dip galvanization system and hot-dip galvanization method

A system for hot-dip galvanization of components, which system is configured for the hot-dip galvanization of a multiplicity of identical or essentially identical components,

• wherein the system comprises:
• a conveying device with at least one goods carrier for conveying the components, wherein the at least one goods carrier is configured for receiving and for transporting at least one separated and singled out component,
• a flux application device for applying a flux to the surface of the components, wherein the flux application device comprises a spraying device for the automated spray application of the flux to the surface of a separated and singled out component, wherein the spraying device comprises a plurality of spraying heads, wherein at least one spraying head can be moved in at least one of the X-direction, the Y-direction and the Z-direction relative to the component, and wherein the spraying device comprises a recycling device configured for the recycling and cleaning of the flux dripping off from the at least one separated and singled out component;
• a hot-dip galvanizing device for hot-dip galvanizing the components, with the hot-dip galvanizing device comprising a galvanizing bath containing a zinc/aluminum alloy in liquid melt form;
• and
• a separating device for an automated supplying, immersing and emersing of a single component, separated and singled from the at least one goods carrier, into and from the galvanizing bath of the hot dip galvanizing device;
• wherein the system further comprises a control device coupled to the spraying device for the automatic spray application of the flux, which control device is configured for the automated control of the spray application as a function of at least one of (i) the form, (ii) the type, (iii) the material and (iv) the surface nature of the component,
• wherein the control device is configured such that there is effected a spray application which is homogeneous and adapted individually to the component, and
• wherein the control device is configured for the automated control of at least one of (i′) the thickness of the spray application on the component, (ii′) the concentration of the flux, (iii′) the spraying duration of the spray application per component, (iv′) the spraying duration of the spray application of different regions of a component, (v′) the simultaneous spray application of different fluxes and (vi′) the simultaneous spray application of different flux components.
