What purpose? Name of appropriate process Process availability
at our company		 Outline of plating
Hardening Hard chromium plating ○ This is the hardest type among electric plating, and it excels in "abrasion resistance" and "corrosion resistance."
Electroless nickel ○ Since the plating is formed with a uniform film thickness, it is suited to "objects with complex shapes" and "objects with dimensional precision." Hv700 and higher can be provided.
Hard alumite ○ This process adds functional properties such as corrosion protection and decoration by oxidizing the surface layer of aluminum by electrolysis. Hv300 to 500 is available.
Improvement in sliding properties Teflon electroless nickel ○ Plating film is uniform with good sliding properties as well as water repellency.
Teflon alumite × Delivers good sliding properties, peeling properties from other materials, and water repellency.
Delustering Chemical pearskin ○ The surface roughness of the base is chemically increased. It addresses finer roughness than blasting.
Blasting △ The surface roughness of the base is increased by blasting particles of iron, sand, glass and so forth in this method. There are wet and dry types.
Giving luster Electrolytic polishing ○ A method which addresses a smooth, glossy surface by anodic dissolution of the metal surface in a certain solution
Chemical polishing ○ A method which chemically addresses a smooth, glossy surface by soaking the metal surface in a certain solution
Buffing ○ A method to mechanically polish the metal surface
Darkening Blackening △ It darkens the surface of iron and stainless steel materials in a simplified manner but it is inferior to other methods in corrosion resistance.
Black alumite ○ Used for aluminum materials.
Black chromate ○ Used for galvanized materials.
Black chromium △ Used for materials that need to be black and hard.
Black electroless nickel ○ The material can be blackened with high dimensional precision.
Strict observation of dimensional precision Electroless nickel ○ This is a process which satisfies both dimensional precision and corrosion resistance.
Chemical polishing ○ Used for burr removal and addressing finish tolerance.
