The First Mold's Precision Electroplating Standard

Don't let inferior outsourced finishes ruin high-quality custom parts.

Dobry wygląd

Słaby wygląd

Powłoka jest cienka (3-15 μm), z określoną tolerancją grubości ±10%.

Grubość powłoki powierzchniowej jest znaczna, co najmniej 20-50 μm.

Dobra precyzja

Słaba precyzja

Powłoka powierzchniowa jest spójna w każdym rogu produktu, z wysoką precyzją

Powłoka jest nierówna i mało precyzyjna.

Dobra technika

Słaba technika

Powłoka ma dobrą przyczepność i nie łuszczy się.

Powłoka ma słabą przyczepność i łatwo się łuszczy.

Dobra odporność na temperaturę

Niska odporność na temperaturę

Powłoka ma dobrą przyczepność i nie łuszczy się.

W przypadku narażenia na działanie wysokich temperatur istnieje ryzyko złuszczenia powłoki.

Through over a decade of strictly managing our integrated finishing network, First Mold has perfected the plating process for thousands of custom projects. You don’t have to worry about any quality issues related to electroplating. We have extensive experience in electroplating rapid prototypes, injection-molded parts, and more.

DFM Tips - Help Us Build It Right

As a custom manufacturer, here is what our CAM engineers and injection molding experts actually look for in your CAD models and 2D prints.

Define "Pre-Plate" vs. "Post-Plate" Dimensions

For Metal & Plastic

Do not leave tolerances to guesswork. Clearly specify on your 2D drawings whether przed lub after plating.

Account for Internal Stresses in Plastic

Mainly For Plastic

Ensure uniform wall thickness in your design to minimize molded-in stresses, which may cause of blistering and peeling.

Provide Fluid Drainage Paths for Complex Components

For Metal & Plastic

If your design has complex internal structures, please allow us to add small, hidden drainage holes
