Metal Plating

This section encompasses the range of Metal Plating processes, covering the types of metals and the various application processes used for depositing metal onto the surface of a component.

Metal Plating is typically performed using the Electroplating method, however other alternative processes for performing Metal Plating can be used. The process deposits a thin layer of the chosen metal onto the surface of a component.

This process is typically used to enhance certain properties of a material, depending on the type of plating process used.

The types of Metal Plating processes include:
• Zinc & Zinc Alloy Plating
• Chrome Plating
• Nickel Plating
• Precious Metal Plating
• Copper Alloy & Tin Plating
