Optimizing Surface Preparation: Strategies to Minimize Plating Failures and Enhance Quality Control
Optimizing Surface Preparation: Strategies to Minimize Plating Failures and Enhance Quality Control
Our industry says that 90% of quality issues are related to poor surface preparation. It would be impossible to quantify that number, but most troubleshooters will agree that ineffective cleaning and activation are among the most common root causes of plating failures. Knowing that effective cleaning has such a strong impact on consistency and quality, the conversation needs to shift toward how operators can proactively ensure parts are properly activated before reaching the plating tank.
