 Metal finishing has changed itself within a couple of decades from what was previously an empirical craft into a key technology grounded on logical principles. Electroplating is a type of metal finishing finding its application among various end-use industries including automotive, electrical & electronics, aerospace & defence, machinery parts & components and many others. Electroplating is an electrochemical process whereby metal ions in solution are attached to a metal substrate by means of electrolytic deposition. Electroplating permits manufactures to utilize inexpensive metals, for example, zinc or steel for most of the product and afterward apply different metal plating on the outside to protect from corrosion, improve appearance and many other different properties desired for the product.
