Our Electroplating Services
Provide precision metallic coatings from 0.5-500μm thickness with ±2% dimensional tolerance. Our automated production lines handle parts up to 3m length, offering 15+ plating options including nickel (bright/semi-bright), chrome (decorative/hard), zinc (blue/black/yellow), and precious metals (gold/silver/rhodium).
What is Electroplating Finish?
An electrochemical process where:
1.DC current reduces dissolved metal ions
2.Forms adherent metallic layer on conductive substrates
3.Achieves targeted surface properties
Technical parameters:
Current density: 0.5-10 A/dm²
Bath temperature: 25-65°C
Deposition rate: 0.05-1μm/minute
Electroplating Advantages
- Enhanced Durability - 5-8x wear resistance improvement
- Corrosion Protection - 250-2000 hours salt spray resistance
- Electrical Conductivity - 20-60% IACS for copper plating
- Aesthetic Versatility - Mirror (≤100GU) to matte (≤10GU) finishes
- Cost Efficiency - 30-50% cheaper than PVD alternatives
Notes
- Pretreatment: Critical for adhesion (ultrasonic cleaning required)
- Post-treatment: Passivation/Sealing recommended
- Not suitable for: Non-conductive materials
Electroplating Applications
- Automotive: Door handles, wheel rims
- Electronics: Connectors, RF shields
- Hardware: Fasteners, hinges
- Jewelry: Costume jewelry plating
- Industrial: Hydraulic rods, bearing surfaces
