Barrel Plating: The working cycle of these plants can be programmed, thus obtaining very high flexibility. The movement is obtained by transporters that run along tracks, supported by means of shoulders fixed to the tanks.
The tanks can be arranged in one or more rows, linked with shuttle transfers. |
 |
Rack Plating:
The lines can also be connected with external loading and unloading stations, and with an external rack storage / staging area.
The workers operate only near the loading-unloading area and are helped by several devices such as: rack / jig lifts, trolleys, shuttle transfers, etc… |

Transfer Plating: Can be either rack or barrel
plating. Used to maximize floor space, these systems are a
"U" shape configuration where the rack or barrel is transferred
across to the opposite side of the system, allowing for the far end of
the system to be placed against a wall.

Arm type electroplating: Plants have a central frame, around which
the extended arms of the system traverse through each of the
electroplating processes. Arms can hold a varied number of racks
and rack configurations for plating of mixed production at high
volumes.
Full turn-key installations include automatic stripping of the pin racks during
the electroplating process, prior to reloading. All plating process can be
performed with these systems.

Electrophoresis Coating: being an organic coating, once the resins are deposited on the work become an electrical insulator, and as the coating adheres on the work the current is reduced until the electrolysis stops and deposition of resinous material is terminated. The coating process continues until all conductive areas on the work are insulated giving an uniform thickness over the part being coated.
