Electroplating is the process of plating a layer of other metals or alloys on the metal surface using the principle of electrolysis. The purpose of electroplating is to coat the metal coating on the substrate and change the surface properties or dimensions of the substrate Electroplating can enhance the corrosion resistance of metal (the coating metal mostly adopts corrosion-resistant metal), increase hardness, prevent abrasion, improve conductivity, lubricity, heat resistance and beautiful surface.


Although both plastic and metal prototypes can use electroplating technology, there are still differences in electroplating because of their different characteristics. The plastic prototype has strong adsorption and can be electroplated directly on the surface of the prototype. If the metal prototype is electroplated directly, it will be easy to fall. Therefore, the metal prototype needs to be sprayed with a layer of primer before electroplating, so the effect of electroplating will be very good and the anti-corrosion time will be longer.

In addition, it has different functions according to various electroplating needs. Examples are as follows:

1. Copper plating: used for backing to improve the adhesion and corrosion resistance of electroplating layer. (copper is easy to oxidize. After oxidation, copper green is no longer conductive, so copper plated products must be protected)

2. Nickel plating: it is used for priming or appearance to improve corrosion resistance and wear resistance (among which chemical nickel is more wear-resistant than chromium plating in modern technology). At present, many electronic products, such as DIN head and N head, no longer use nickel backing, mainly because nickel is magnetic, which will affect the passive intermodulation in electrical performance

3. Gold plating: improve conductive contact impedance and enhance signal transmission. (gold is the most stable and expensive.)

4. Palladium nickel plating: improve conductive contact impedance, enhance signal transmission, and the wear resistance is higher than that of gold.

5. Tin and lead plating: improve the welding ability and quickly be replaced by other substitutes (most of them are now plated with bright tin and fog tin because of lead).

6. Silver plating: improve conductive contact impedance and enhance signal transmission. (silver has the best performance, is easy to oxidize, and will conduct electricity after oxidation)


Mastars' rapid prototyping service can provide various 3D printing prototyping services according to customers' needs, verify your designed, provide fast, efficient and cost-effective services, and lay the foundation for future mass production of your products.
