Method of manufacturing a trough used in galvanization of workpieces

Abstract

A method including manufacturing a trough. The trough includes connected walls configured to hold a molten galvanization material within the trough. The trough is further manufactured to include a first end including a first gate system. The trough is further manufactured to include a second end, opposing the first end, including a second gate system. The trough is further manufactured to include a roller connected, inside the trough, to opposing inside walls of the connected walls. The trough is further manufactured to include a sump disposed within the trough. The trough is further manufactured to include a side braces connected to an outside wall of the connected walls. The side braces extend outwardly from the outside wall. The trough is further manufactured to include an inlet connected to the sump, the inlet disposed at a perpendicular angle relative to the outside wall and further disposed between the side braces.
