Following working with SIFCO ASC on a plating application for an engine component for many years, Polamer Precision harnessed the expertise of SIFCO ASC's engineers to bring the process in-house.
Screen-printable, pad-printable and stencil-printable silver conductive inks and coatings are suitable for applications requiring subsequent plating operations.
Carbodeon Ltd. Oy has announced improvements to electroless nickel including a 3x improvement in wear resistance through the controlled addition of nano-diamonds.
Nanodiamond particles are hardwearing, small and offer very low surface friction. Since their discovery in cold-war Russia, they have been a little-known secret used to improve the performance of hard chrome plating.
SIFCO Applied Surface Concepts (ASC), a supplier of selective plating technology and solutions, has gained the Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Specification (OHSAS) 18001 accreditation.
