What functions can steam generators play in the electroplating process?
In the electroplating process, the steam generator provides key support for each link of electroplating production with its stable heat energy output, from pretreatment to coating curing, to fully ensure the quality and efficiency of electroplating.
The high-temperature steam generated by the steam generator can be used in the degreasing and oil removal process of electroplated parts. Through steam injection, pollutants such as grease and wax on the metal surface can be quickly dissolved, which is more environmentally friendly and efficient than traditional solvent cleaning. For example, before electroplating the car wheel hub, steam cleaning can completely remove the mold release agent left over from casting, laying the foundation for the subsequent coating adhesion. At the same time, the hot and humid environment of steam can form a microscopic activation layer on the metal surface, enhancing the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate.
In the temperature control of the electroplating tank liquid, the steam generator accurately heats the plating solution through a heat exchanger. Taking the chrome plating process as an example, maintaining the plating solution in the optimal temperature range of 50-60°C can ensure the stability of the chromium ion reduction rate and improve the uniformity and brightness of the plating layer. For processes such as chemical nickel plating that require constant temperature reactions, steam temperature control can control temperature fluctuations within an appropriate temperature to ensure the deposition rate and composition ratio of the phosphorus-nickel alloy layer .
In the post-plating drying process, the steam generator provides a heat source for the hot air circulation system, accelerating the evaporation of water through 120-150℃ hot and humid air to avoid water marks on the coating. For example, after aluminum alloy electroplating, steam-assisted drying can quickly solidify the coating without damaging the oxide film. For workpieces after passivation treatment, the steam-heated environment can promote the cross-linking reaction of the passivation film and enhance corrosion resistance. At the same time, steam can be used to clean electroplating racks and tanks, remove residual electroplating solution crystals, extend the service life of the equipment, and maintain the cleanliness of the production line.
From substrate pretreatment to finished product inspection, the steam generator uses thermal energy as a link throughout the entire electroplating process, which not only improves the stability of the coating performance, but also promotes the electroplating process to green and intelligent upgrades through precise temperature control and efficient cleaning.
