Electroplating is a plating process in which metal ions in a solution are moved by an electric field to coat an electrode. The process uses electrical current to reduce cations of a desired material from a solution and coat a conductive object with a thin layer of the material, such as a metal. BPlas can plate onto platable ABS and ABS/PC blends.
Types of plating which can be achieved in BPlas Electroplating line;
- Electroless Nickel,
- Electroless Copper,
- Acid Copper,
- Bright Nickel,
- Satin Nickel,
- Micro-porous Nickel,
- Micro-fissured Nickel,
- Chrome Plating (Cr+3),
- Chrome Plating (Cr+6),
BPlas performs the following in-house testing:
- CASS testing for corrosion resistance evaluation per ASTM B-368
- Wet thermal cycle testing for critical adhesion testing per CSA B-125
- Dry thermal cycle testing for adhesion testing per ASTM B-553
- Kocour plating thickness testing
- Microscopic section analysis for plating and substrate material troubleshooting
