Functional coatings for the highest demands
Our technical surfaces offer a perfect combination of protection, functionality and design. Using state-of-the-art technologies, we ensure that your components have exactly the surface properties they need. We offer customised solutions for numerous sectors such as the connector industry, electronics, medical technology and automotive.
Gold coating
The gold we use is mainly utilised for technical applications in the electrical connector industry. It is also widely used in other industries that manufacture precision parts, such as stamped and bent parts, turned parts, springs, contact pins, contact sockets and reeds.
- Advantages: Maximum corrosion resistance and high current conductivity for connectors and sensitive components.
- Typical applications: Electrical contacts, high-frequency connectors and components in medical technology.
During the finishing process, we carry out continuous quality checks and layer thickness measurements, which are carefully documented.
Silver coating
Silver or hard silver is ideal for electrical plug connections due to its low current resistance
and excellent conductivity.
- Advantages: Highest current conductivity and lowest contact resistance - ideal for electrical contacts.
- Typical applications: High-performance components, plug connections and contacts.
During the finishing process, we carry out continuous quality checks and layer thickness measurements, which are carefully documented.
Copper coating
Electroplated copper is mainly used in technical surface finishing as a base layer between the raw material and the electroplated layer structure.
- Advantages: High ductility and good adhesion promoter between the raw material and the galvanised layer structure.
- Typical applications: Carrier layers for complex multi-layer systems in electronics and industrial components.
During the finishing process, we carry out continuous quality checks and layer thickness measurements, which are carefully documented.
Nickel coating
The most common nickel layer is electrolytically deposited sulphamate nickel, which serves as a diffusion barrier between the base material and the final layer. Electroless nickel, also known as ‘electroless nickel’, enables variable surface hardness thanks to its varying phosphorus content.
- Advantages: High ductility and acts as a diffusion barrier between the base material and the final layer.
- Typical applications: Mechanically stressed components, surfaces and technical diffusion barriers.
During the finishing process, we carry out continuous quality checks and layer thickness measurements, which are carefully documented.
Tin coating
Tin can be deposited on components such as square pins, soldering sockets, soldering pins and stamped parts in both bright and matt finishes. It offers high solderability and good corrosion protection.
- Advantages: Excellent solderability for components such as sockets and pins.
- Typical applications: Electrical contacts, connectors and components in telecommunications.
During the finishing process, we carry out continuous quality checks and layer thickness measurements, which are carefully documented.
