Let our used robots be the solution to your drossing tasks. 

  • The surface of the zinc coating bath must be cleaned at regular intervals which is slow, dangerous and extremely labor intensive
  • A robotic drossing system will reduce zinc loss because it consistently drains all of the liquid zinc from the skimming ladle or spoon
  • The robot can dross the surface of the zinc bath at a constant speed and depth improving the quality of the removal process
  • Use of a robot to do this time consuming and labor intensive task can free-up a person to do other important work

past project

This Fanuc S-420iF with an RJ2 controller is removing dross from a zinc pot. The robot rakes the dross from around the pot to the edge. The robot then pick up and allows the good zinc to drain. It then dumps the dross into a bucket in multiple location to prevent one peak. We programmed the robot to run different cycle based on heavy or light gauge runs.
