    Abstract: A method for setting the production schedule of a multiplicity of galvanized coils of metallic strip on a continuous galvanizing line is provided, the method including the steps of evaluating, for each possible combination of two uncoated coils, the impact of the transition from the first uncoated coil to the second uncoated coil on the quality of the galvanized coils, allocating to each possible combination of uncoated coils a weighting factor which depends on the results of the previous step and which takes into account the line constraints, computing the results of the previous step by calculating, for a number of possible schedules of the multiplicity of uncoated coils, a score which depends on the sum of the weighting factors attributed to the combinations of uncoated coils involved in the given schedule and by selecting the schedule with the optimal score.

    Abstract: A continuous cleaning installation 1 of a passing strip S includes a tank 2, an aqueous solution 3 inside the tank 2. It also includes at least a roll 4 immerged in the aqueous solution 3, at least an ultrasound emitter 5, a feed for feeding 6 an aqueous solution and emptying 7 the tank. Moreover, it also includes and estimator for estimating 8 the aqueous solution level, a calculator for calculating 9 for each ultrasound emitter 5 its distance to the aqueous solution level and a controller for controlling the power 10 of the at least one ultrasound emitter 5 and at least an impermeable closable opening 11 on at least a lateral side of the tank through which the at least one ultrasound emitter 5 can pass.
