Wenbo offers a versatile semi-automatic plating machine tailored for diverse industrial needs. It supports multiple plating types with adjustable settings for optimal performance. The system ensures precision through advanced control features, while its durable design guarantees long-term reliability and efficiency.
Tailored tank sizes and layouts for all component types.
Precise voltage and timing controls for uniform plating.
Intuitive interface simplifies operation for all users.
Adapts to various metals and coating needs with ease.
Robust build ensures long-term use in harsh conditions.
Full cycle from cleaning to passivation in one system.
The operator manually loads the metal components (e.g., steel parts) onto the plating racks or barrels, ensuring proper positioning for uniform coating.
Components are immersed in a degreasing solution to remove oils, grease, and dirt from the surface, preparing them for further treatment.
Parts are rinsed with water to remove any residual degreasing solution, ensuring a clean surface for the next step.
The components are dipped in an acid solution (e.g., hydrochloric or sulfuric acid) to remove rust, scale, and oxides, exposing a clean metal surface.
A second water rinse removes acid residues, preventing contamination of subsequent solutions.
Components are briefly immersed in an activation solution (e.g., a mild acid or alkaline bath) to enhance adhesion of the zinc coating during electrolysis.
The operator places the components into the plating tank, connecting them to the cathode, while a zinc anode is set up in the electrolyte solution.
The machine applies a controlled electric current, causing zinc ions from the anode to deposit onto the component’s surface, forming a protective zinc layer.
After plating, components are rinsed with water to remove excess electrolyte solution and prevent contamination of subsequent baths.
Components may be dipped in a brightening solution to enhance the aesthetic finish of the zinc coating, giving it a shiny, polished appearance.
A final water rinse ensures the components are clean and free of residues before the passivation step.
The components are immersed in a passivation solution (e.g., a chromate or non-chromate bath) to form a protective layer over the zinc coating, enhancing corrosion resistance.
A thorough water rinse removes any passivation solution residues, ensuring the components are clean and ready for drying.
The components are dried using hot air or a centrifugal dryer, after which the operator unloads them from the racks or barrels, completing the process.
Designed for high-volume plating of small parts, this system uses rotating barrels to ensure even zinc, tin, or nickel coating, offering consistent results with minimal manual effort and high efficiency.
A Semi-Automatic Plating Machine is a piece of equipment used in industrial settings to apply a metal coating (such as nickel, chrome, or zinc) onto a substrate. It combines automated processes with manual operator input, making it efficient yet flexible for various plating tasks.
The machine typically involves a series of steps including cleaning, rinsing, and immersing the workpiece in an electrolyte solution. The operator manually loads and unloads parts, while the machine automates the plating process, controlling factors like voltage, current, and timing for consistent results.
It can plate a variety of metals, such as steel, brass, copper, or aluminum, with coatings like gold, silver, nickel, or chromium, depending on the machine’s specifications and the plating solution used.
A semi-automatic machine offers a balance between cost and efficiency. It’s less expensive than fully automatic systems while reducing human error and labor compared to manual setups, making it ideal for small to medium-scale production.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the tanks, checking electrical connections, replacing worn components, and ensuring the plating solutions are at the correct concentration. Routine inspections by the operator help prevent downtime and ensure consistent performance.
Yes, many manufacturers offer customization options, such as adjusting tank sizes, adding specific controls, or tailoring the machine for unique plating requirements like thickness or material type, depending on the user’s needs.
Wenbo delivers premium electroplating solutions combining innovation and reliability for industries worldwide.
