Improve Work Pieces with High Quality Metal Plating

Zinc plating is a process in which a layer of zinc is electrically bound to a metallic work piece to increase adhesion.

This type of plating is used in a variety of industries and is prominently used to plate steel materials to prevent rust. The zinc film plated on steel can protect against rust for a long time.

Zinc-nickel plating is the process of using zinc and nickel together to plate metallic surfaces.

This process uses electricity to plate a layer of metal on work pieces. Zinc-nickel plating yields better rust prevention properties than zinc plating alone and better durability. However, the level of anti-corrosiveness is dependent on the plated surface's thickness.

Electro Nickel Plating is the conventional process for nickel plating. In this process, direct current (DC) electricity is used to cause the nickel electrolyte solution to have a chemical reaction and cover the work piece surface. Electro nickel plating has various steps, types, and chemicals used, depending on the purpose of use, such as increasing resistance to corrosion, work piece durability, and aesthetics.

Electroless nickel plating or EN plating is nickel plating that uses control of chemical reactions with no need for electricity. Reducing agents are used to cause nickel plating on metallic work pieces and provide better durability against lubrication corrosion compared to electro nickel plating. Electroless nickel plating is suitable for works that need precision due to the consistency of the nickel layer's surface and work that needs plating on work pieces of every shape and corner with equal thickness on every surface. The resulting plating work is aesthetically pleasing.

Nickel-chrome plating is the process of plating metallic surfaces with the nickel layer first, followed by a layer of chromium. The nickel layer helps make the surface smooth and provides protection against corrosion, while the chrome layer gives a sleek shine and durability. Nickel-chrome plating is used in various industries.

Black oxide coating is a chemical process that turns work piece surfaces black with no need to increase thickness. This chemical process uses a chemical solution to cause a reaction on work piece surfaces, creating a thin black oxide layer. This process is usually used to enhance corrosion prevention properties.

Anodizing is an electrochemical process for increasing the thickness of oxide layers on metallic surfaces. This process is called "anodizing", because the work piece is anodized in the process, creating oxide layers over work piece surfaces to create resistance against corrosion and decay. Anodizing is the process of changing material surfaces into thick layers with pores and crystalline formations, making anodized surfaces very hard, non-conductive, and have a much higher melting point.

Chrome plating is an electroplating process with chromium in chromic acid. Hard chrome plating is a process that begins by first using a thin layer of chromic acid on metallic surfaces before using a thin layer of chromium oxide. Hard chrome plating is one of the most durable forms of plating to protect work piece surfaces and increase durability.

Copper plating is an electroplating process that adds a layer of copper on the surface of metallic materials. Copper is used as both standalone plating and a primer for other metal plating that is resistant to corrosion, increases electricity and heat conductivity, or treats adhesion of other coated substances added to the surface.

In tin plating, a metallic materials surface is plated with tin. Tin plating is heavily used in the automotive and electronic parts industry. Tin is also an excellent anti-oxidation metal that can be easily welded

Phosphoric acid zinc treatment of steel is the process of treating a metallic surface with a thin layer of zinc phosphate. This process functions as an anti-corrosion layer with good adhesion to metallic surfaces and provides a good surface for applying paint or coating other substances while also having diverse uses in various industries.

Copper plating for PCB means the process of plating thin layers of copper on the surface and in the interior of printed circuit boards (PCBs). The copper layer functions to conduct electricity or electrical pathways. Copper is chosen for PCB production due to many reasons. Copper's excellent conductivity and extremely low resistance to electricity helps electricity to flow effectively.
