System overviewEngineered around your production requirement
ABS plastic electroplating lines are designed to create a decorative and functional metallic finish on plastic components while maintaining good adhesion and surface consistency.
The process typically combines chemical pre-treatment and activation with subsequent metal deposition and electroplating stages. Proper control of each step is important to achieve stable bonding between the plastic substrate and the metallic coating.
ES-PRO provides customized ABS plastic plating systems for different product sizes, coating requirements and production capacities. The line can be configured with suitable tanks, filtration, heating, chemical control, rectifiers, exhaust treatment and automation to support reliable and repeatable production.
