Metallising, Passivating

In collaboration with chemical manufacturers, we have developed a wide range of chemical-specific process systems, including those for direct metallization. The benefits of direct metallization have long been known and typically offer lower operating costs and a smaller footprint. However, if the equipment is not tailored for optimal performance, the process can result in poor yields. With this in mind, we pride ourselves on our ability to implement innovative ideas that often result in reduced operating costs while maintaining the best possible quality.

Each system has standard features but can be customized to meet specific customer requirements. With over 35 years of experience in designing and manufacturing equipment, we are a successful supplier of wet process systems to many PCB and chemical processing companies worldwide. The systems include touch screens, a menu-driven display and PLC control. All process variables are independently adjustable and can be monitored and recorded via an optional PC-controlled data acquisition package. Online troubleshooting is standard today. The lines are built using suitable materials for a long service life. They are easy to operate and designed for ease of maintenance.
