Technical breakthroughs in chrome plating process and equipment selection guide

2025-03-28

Technical advantages and industry applications of hard chrome plating equipment

Hard chrome plating equipment (hard chrome plating equipment) through the high current density process in the metal surface to form a uniform thickness of the chromium layer, the hardness of up to HV 900-1100, significantly enhance the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of parts. Take Leimeng Equip's full-automatic chrome plating machine (chrome plating machine for sale) as an example, it adopts the pulse power supply technology, and the thickness of the plating layer can be controlled within ±2μm, which is suitable for hydraulic piston rods, injection moulds, and other precision parts. After the introduction of this equipment by an auto parts manufacturer, the mould repair cycle was shortened by 40% and the production cost of a single piece was reduced by 30%.


Market trend of environmentally friendly trivalent chromium plating technology

Traditional hexavalent chromium plating faces strict restrictions due to environmental pollution, while trivalent chromium plating equipment (chrome coating machine) achieves plating gloss ≥85% (ASTM D523 standard) by optimising the electrolyte formulation (pH 2.5-3.5, temperature 25-35°C), while reducing toxic waste emissions by more than 90%. Leimeng Equip's environmentally friendly models are EU RoHS certified and are equipped with wastewater recycling systems to help customers meet ISO 14001 environmental requirements.


Maintenance and Performance Optimisation Strategies for Chrome Plating Equipment


Anode Management: Replace lead-tin alloy anodes regularly to avoid impurity contamination of the plating solution;


Plating solution monitoring: daily testing of chromic acid concentration and temperature fluctuation to ensure coating adhesion;


Energy consumption optimisation: adopting high-frequency rectifiers to increase power utilisation to over 85%.

Through the above measures, the equipment failure rate of a machinery manufacturing enterprise decreased by 25%, and the annual maintenance cost saved more than 18,000 US dollars.
