Understanding Electroplating: A Key Metal Finishing Technique

Electroplating is a process used to finish metals by applying an electrical current to deposit a thin layer of metal onto another material’s surface. This method improves the coated component’s resistance to corrosion, durability against wear, conductivity, and overall appearance. The process occurs in an electrolyte solution, where the item being plated serves as the cathode, while the metal to be deposited acts as the anode. As the electric current flows through the solution, metal ions migrate from the anode and adhere to the surface of the object, creating a consistent, protective, and decorative layer. Electroplating is commonly utilized in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and industrial manufacturing, providing enhanced performance and longevity for different metal parts.

Electroplating Processes

Each of these electroplating techniques is designed to meet industry-specific requirements, ensuring long-lasting protection, improved mechanical properties, and enhanced aesthetics for a wide range of applications. At Nabtech Engineering, we follow strict quality control procedures to deliver high-performance electroplating solutions that meet global standards.

Alkaline Zinc Processes

A protective zinc coating is applied in an alkaline bath, offering excellent corrosion resistance and adhesion. The rack method is used for large or delicate components, while the barrel method efficiently plates bulk small parts like fasteners and connectors.

Alkaline Zinc Nickel Processes

A high-performance zinc-nickel alloy coating, available in silver or black finishes, providing superior corrosion resistance, high-temperature tolerance, and improved durability, ideal for automotive and aerospace components.

Alkaline Zinc Iron Process

A zinc-iron alloy plating that enhances corrosion protection and wear resistance, commonly used for industrial fasteners, automotive parts, and machinery components.

CED (Cathodic Electro Deposition) Coating

A dip-coating process using electrical current to apply a uniform, highly protective layer. This method provides excellent adhesion, corrosion protection, and chemical resistance, widely used in automotive and heavy machinery applications.

Electroless Nickel Process

Unlike conventional electroplating, this auto-catalytic process deposits a uniform nickel layer without the use of electricity. It offers exceptional wear resistance, hardness, and uniform coverage, making it ideal for precision components, aerospace, and industrial machinery.

Geomet Coating or Zinc Flakes Process

An environmentally friendly, water-based zinc flake coating that provides high-performance corrosion protection without the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. It is widely used in fasteners, structural steel, and automotive applications.
