HOW TO REDUCE THE COST :
ELECTROPLATERS'S COST CUTTING FACT
A lot of electroplaters doing plating business and complaining that their customer paying very less. it may be true in some cases . If you not able to get the more rate then try to cut down the cost. here are some major usefull fact , by applying this facts i am sure you may get some benefit :
1. ANODE : Try to keep the maximum level of metal anodes to reduce electricity expenses, If you keep more anodes then you have to give less volts for getting the particular ampere , If you have less anode then you have to give more volt to get the same ampere.If we giving more volt then electricity consumption will be more. In plating process electricity always calculated by ampere not by volt. some example are here :
Alkaline zinc plating : 20-30 amp per sq feet
Acid zinc plating : 15-30 amp per sq feet
Nickel plating : 30-40 amp per sq feet
2. PRETREATMENT : A lot of electroplaters don't take the pretreatment process so seriousily . they tried to cut the time of pretreatment to take more production , but at the end of day they are able to take more production with defective coating due to improper pretreatment. actually pretreatment is the base of plating and if base is not good then we can't expect the proper bonding, adhesion, smooth finish,brightness etc.
By adopting proper pretreatment we can reduce the rejection percentage of final product and can be reduce the plating time also in some cases.
Today's market a lot of cost effective pretreatment chemicals are available , try some of them .
3. WATER RINSE : Again water is the one of cheapest chemicals use by electroplaters. By using proper water rinses we can save the costly chemicals during the process .During the plating process if process in one chemicals (say acidic) but after this process component not rinse proper in the water then this chemicals carry over to the next process and spoil the solution partly and slowly but after some time chemicals contaminent to above the tolerence level. If happen then solution may be spoil or you have to treat them. In both way you have loose the money, time , loss of production etc. So let us give the proper water rinse to save the chemicals or you can say money.
4. TEMPERATURE : To heat the solutions of plating bath or pretreatment bath we use the heaters. To save the electricity have the proper plan like Nos of heaters or capacity of heaters and auto cut off control to avoid the excess heating etc.
