During the process of using electroless nickel plating solution, it is necessary to strictly control the temperature of the plating solution. Even if a temperature controller is installed, it is still necessary to regularly check whether the temperature of the plating solution is within the process range.
Master Ma's company is an electroplating processing enterprise that ranks among the top five in the local area in terms of production scale using electroless nickel plating solution. It mainly processes electroless nickel for mobile phone antennas. The coating requirements for such workpieces are relatively high, and the daily production volume is very large, so the daily production schedule is always well arranged. One day, the workpieces on Master Ma's production line had been in the bath for 30 minutes to be electroless nickel plating, but the thickness of the coating was still insufficient. Usually, it only takes 15 minutes. This would seriously affect the production progress. Master Ma was also stunned. What could have caused this?
Master Ma analyzed the composition of the plating solution. The concentrations of nickel ions and sodium hypophosphite were both within the process range. The temperature displayed by the thermostat is 89℃, which is also within the working range. So, what exactly could be the reason? I had no choice but to turn to Bigely engineers for help. After arriving at the site, the engineer carefully inspected each link. Later, when determining the temperature of the plating solution, although the plating solution was smoking, the thermometer showed only 63℃. So Master Ma quickly checked the thermostat and found that it had malfunctioned. After the repair, Master Ma's production line returned to normal.
Therefore, in the process of using electroless nickel plating solution, the control of the plating solution temperature is very important.
