Electroplating

By means of electrochemical deposition, metallic deposits are formed on (iron-metallic) workpieces, which is used either for decorative or functional purposes. In the functional area, electroplated layers offer protection against corrosion, wear and catalysis. The layer also improves electrical conductivity and reduces friction forces.

Examples are the electroplating of plastics, the chrome plating of, for example, fittings and the gold plating of jewellery. Electroplating plants consist of long tanks in which the various process steps take place one after the other (usually automatically controlled). A distinction is made between piece, mass and continuous electroplating.
