One of the most defining elements that shape the nighttime identity of modern cities is undoubtedly outdoor lighting systems. However, the success of these systems does not solely depend on the power of the light sources, but also on the strength, design, and manufacturing quality of the poles that support them. Particularly in areas with high traffic density, large-scale lighting needs, and long-term infrastructure projects, galvanized polygon poles stand out as carefully engineered and precisely manufactured structures.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), public lighting systems account for approximately 19% of global electricity consumption. In this context, it becomes crucial that lighting infrastructure components are not only durable but also energy-efficient. Furthermore, the design, dimensions, and surface treatments of lighting poles play an essential role in terms of urban safety and aesthetics.
At Işın Daylight, we are committed to developing solutions that make cities safer and more livable. We manufacture polygon lighting poles in full compliance with international standards. Let’s take a closer look at the production steps of galvanized polygon poles.
Raw Material Entry and Quality Control
The process begins with the delivery of high-quality steel sheets and pipes to our production facility. However, this initial stage is far more than just material reception. Each raw material used at Işın Daylight undergoes detailed inspection based on parameters such as dimensions, wall thickness, surface smoothness, and mechanical strength. Only materials that meet our strict quality standards move forward to the production line, ensuring the durability of the final product from the very beginning.
Cutting Process: Precision with Band Saw and CNC Plasma
Once approved, the materials are first roughly cut using band saws. They are then transferred to CNC plasma cutting machines for high-precision processing. These advanced machines enable custom cuts tailored to each project, ensuring perfect compatibility for the following steps. Accurate cutting is crucial for both structural integrity and efficient production workflow.
Forming: Bending with Press Brake
The cut steel sheets are shaped into their signature polygonal form—typically 8, 12, or 16 sides—using press brake machines. This stage not only gives the pole its geometric identity but also significantly enhances its structural strength. Performed with high-tonnage machines, this process achieves millimetric precision, ensuring consistency and durability.
Welding: Assembling the Pole Body and Bracket
The shaped sheets are assembled using semi-automatic welding machines, forming the body of the pole. Welding is also applied to the bracket (arm) sections separately. Both structural strength and visual quality are prioritized during this process. Any surface roughness caused by welding is smoothed using specialized grinding machines, ensuring a polished finish and safe installation.
Hot-Dip Galvanizing: High-Level Corrosion Resistance
After welding and grinding, the poles undergo hot-dip galvanizing to protect them from environmental factors. In this process, each pole is fully submerged in molten zinc, forming a uniform coating that prevents corrosion. This treatment offers long-term protection against humidity, rain, and other weather conditions—significantly reducing maintenance needs.
Final Quality Check, Straightening, and Packaging
After galvanization, the poles are subjected to final quality control procedures. Dimensional accuracy, surface coating quality, and mounting points are all carefully checked. If necessary, straightening operations are performed to ensure perfect form. The products are then safely packaged for transportation, ensuring they reach the project site without damage and are easy to install.
Delivery: Fast and Safe Shipment Tailored to Each Project
Once the production process is complete, each pole is labeled and accompanied by its shipment documentation. The poles are delivered on time, securely, and accurately to project sites. At Işın Daylight, delivery is not just a logistic step—it’s part of our quality assurance process.
Conclusion: Lighting Cities with the Işın Daylight Standard
At Işın Daylight, we believe that outdoor lighting systems must be not only visible but also robust, long-lasting, and safe. Our galvanized polygon lighting poles are used in a wide range of applications—from busy intersections and airport zones to sports complexes, factories, and parking lots.
