Abstract
The present invention provides a method for producing a sheet. The method includes providing a substrate, depositing a metal coating over at least one surface by dipping the substrate in a bath in order to obtain the sheet, wiping the metal coating by means of at least one nozzle projecting through at least one outlet a wiping gas onto the metal coating, the sheet being run in front of the nozzle, the wiping gas being ejected from the nozzle along a primary direction of ejection (E), a confinement box delimiting a confined zone at least downstream of the zone of impact (I) of the wiping gas on the sheet and solidifying the metal coating. The method satisfying:
