PRE-TREATMENT OF A SUBSTRATE FOR HOT-DIP COATING

A hot-dip coating system comprising a substrate pathway comprising one or more rollers configured to move a substrate along the substrate pathway between a first end and a second end, a pre-coating section arranged with respect to the substrate pathway and configured to apply a first coating to the substrate, a pre-heating section arranged with respect to the substrate pathway and configured to heat the substrate and the first coating, and a hot-dip coating section arranged with respect to the substrate pathway and configured to apply a second coating to the substrate.
