Choosing the right electroplating method is essential for ensuring optimal coating quality, durability, and cost efficiency. At our state-of-the-art facility, we offer both rack and barrel electroplating, providing flexible solutions for a wide range of part sizes, geometries, and production volumes.

Understanding Rack and Barrel Plating

Rack Electroplating is ideal for larger, complex, or delicate parts that require a high-quality cosmetic or precision finish. Individual components are mounted on racks, which ensures uniform exposure to the plating bath and allows for meticulous control of coating thickness and surface characteristics.

Barrel Electroplating, on the other hand, is designed for small, durable parts in high volumes. Components are loaded into a rotating, non-conductive barrel, which is submerged in the plating bath. This process is efficient and economical, offering consistent coating across multiple parts in a single cycle.
