An apprenticeship at Hettich
|
| Electroplating, or galvanization, involves putting the work piece into a solution of metal salts (electrolyte) and connecting it to the negative charge of a DC source (cathode). The metal which is to form the coating is also submerged in the electrolyte and connected to the positive charge of the current source (anode). Metal ions migrate from the anode to form a coating on the cathode. |

Not only will you learn the electrolytic coating technique itself, you will also measure the electrolyte, monitor the technical equipment, check the coating thickness and undertake further analyses in the laboratory.
