Custom Metal Chrome Plating

Electroplating is the process of using electrolysis to attach a layer of the metal film to the surface of metal or other materials so as to prevent metal oxidation, improve wear resistance, electrical conductivity, reflection, corrosion resistance, and enhance the role of beauty. Orienson has complete supporting resources, which can provide customers with different plating methods such as continuous plating, barrel plating, rack plating, and different plating types such as gold plating, silver plating, tin plating, nickel plating, zinc plating, zinc-nickel alloy plating, etc., and can be tested and controlled by XRay coating thickness tester, Brine spray tester, high temperature, and high humidity testing machine and other equipment.

 

What Is The Process Of Metal Electroplating?

01

Basic Process

 

(grinding → polishing) →racking→degrease & oil removal→washing → (electrolytic polishing or chemical polishing) → acid activation → (preplating) → plating → washing → (post-process) → washing→dry→ taking down →Inspecting packing

 

02

The Role Of Pretreatment Process

 

Pretreatment: all processes before plating are called pretreatment, the purpose is to dress the surface of the workpiece, remove the grease, rust, oxide film on the surface of the workpiece, and provide the required electroplating surface for the subsequent deposition of the coating.

 

03

The Role Of Electroplating Process

 

Electroplating is getting the required coating on the surface of the workpiece, also is the core process of the electroplating process. The quality of this process directly affects the properties of the coating.

 

04

The Role Of Post-treatment Process

 

Post-treatment: after electroplating, the coating is processed to enhance the various properties of the coating, such as corrosion resistance, anti-discoloration ability, solderability, etc.

 

Benefits Of Metal Electroplating

 

Different effects can be obtained according to various electrodeposits:

 

1. Copper plating: Base for improving adhesion and corrosion resistance of electroplating.

 

2. Nickel plating: For base or appearance, improve corrosion resistance and wear resistance.

 

3. Gold plating: Improve conductive contact impedance, enhance signal transmission.  

 

4. Palladium nickel plating: Improve conductive contact impedance, enhance signal transmission, wear resistance higher than gold.

 

5. Tin plating: Enhance the welding ability, and have a shielding effect on nitriding.

 

6. Silver plating: Improve conductive contact impedance, enhance signal transmission.  

 

Benefits Of Metal Electroplating

What is Metal Electroplating?

Electroplating is the method of electrolysis to make metal or alloy deposition on the workpiece surface, in order to form a uniform, dense, good bonding force of the metal layer process.

 

Electroplating coating is uniform, generally thin, ranging from a few microns to dozens of microns.

 

Through electroplating, we can obtain decorative protective and various functional surface layers on mechanical products, but also repair wear and processing errors of the workpiece.
