It is often said that inspection processes save money but that inspection reports cost money. The automation of inspection processes is an important cost saving that also leads to more time being allocated to the important task of inspection. There have been recent developments in both software and gauge design, which together make paperless quality assurance a reality for all protective and industrial coating applications.
In this article, we will be presenting some background about the zinc‐in‐immersion technology itself while addressing some of the important questions where the two opposing sides commonly clash. A discussion over failure modes; reasons for failure; and alternate technologies will be discussed. Additional information will detail what factors and features are needed to develop a good lining to protect steel water tanks. The paper will conclude by discussing alternative coating options that exist (including “greener” versions) and expected performance levels these coatings are anticipated to provide.
