This automated zinc electroplating line features a plating barrel system, ideal for mass-finishing small metal parts with uniform, corrosion-resistant coatings, boasting high efficiency and a 500 kg daily capacity.
A plating barrel is a rotating device used in electroplating to coat small parts like screws or connectors uniformly with metals like zinc or nickel.
It tumbles parts in a perforated barrel submerged in an electrolyte solution, allowing even metal deposition as electric current flows through the setup.
Common materials include steel, brass, and copper, often coated with metals like gold, silver, or chromium for corrosion resistance or conductivity.
Automotive, electronics, aerospace, and jewelry industries rely on plating barrels for mass-finishing small components efficiently.
It offers cost-effective, uniform coating for high volumes, typically processing 50-500 kg of parts per cycle, with reduced labor compared to rack plating.
Regularly clean the barrel, check for wear on perforations, and ensure proper alignment and electrical contacts to maintain consistent plating quality.
