Perforation information
Holes are internally countersunk to increase solution transfer and reduce solution drag-out.
Slots are externally counter bored to increase solution exchange.
Corrugated wall finishes are available to eliminate surface tension and parts sticking avoiding transfer marks to product
- UHMW PE 1000 allows far greater open area of perforations
- Greater amperes for less volts. (More efficient barrel cycle times)
- Reduction with solution drag-out
- Excellent solution transfer on fine slots and holes
- Reduced surface tension and sticking of components
- Hole perforations vary from 1.5mm to 12mm, with slots from 1mm to 3mm
Plating Barrels - Advanced perforation techniques
Maximum perforation is essential to the working efficiency of the electro-plating barrel.
The greater the open area the more efficiently the electrolytic solution will transfer. This achieves greater amps at less volts resulting in faster deposit times.
We only use UHMW PE 1000 grade which, with its remarkable anti-wear and ultra high tensile strength characteristics, enables a greater number of perforations to be made than is possible with lower specification materials, couple with extended barrel life.
The perforation open area can be as high as 45% giving outstanding electroplating efficiency.
