AMFIN SERVICES
Electroplating Services
Amfin provide electroplating services, a metal finish for protection from corrosion, increasing electrical conductivity, and improving the appearance of objects for major aerospace and other industries around the world.
What is electroplating?
Electroplating is the process of passing electrical current through a liquid which results in a thin film of metal being deposited on the surface of a workpiece. It is commonly used in metal finishing, such as in hardening and cleaning, coatings, and soldering.
The electroplating process explained
Electroplating is used for a variety of purposes, including protection from corrosion, increasing electrical conductivity, and improving the appearance of objects.
Our fully automated electroplating facility controls all critical processing parameters and records data from each production run. This ensures that the finished result will always give the best possible result at the highest quality.
Critical processing chemistry is also controlled automatically to provide consistent results.

Electroplating Services we offer
At Amfin we offer different types of electroplating to suit specific manufacturing requirements. The electroplating process can increase corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and provide a better adhesion for paint and glue.
Silver Plating
Silver plating – Silver is an excellent plating material as it has a high resistance to corrosion and Oxidation giving any metal a protective layer. Silver plating will also perform well at high temperatures.
Copper plating
Copper plating provides a wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant surface on a variety of metals. It can also be used to repair damaged surfaces and to improve the appearance of metals. It can be applied to a wide range of metals, including aluminium, brass, and stainless steel.
Copper stripping can be done for a variety of reasons but typically its to remove a damaged or corroded layer.
Other reasons you may need this service is to prepare the surface for soldering, or to remove excess material from a workpiece.
