The solution? Our demagnetizer for your nickel plating
To avoid the creation of needle-shaped deposits, you can eliminate the residual magnetism of steel using our low-frequency industrial demagnetizer.Our machinery reaches the core of the piece, considerably reducing the level of magnetization. Unlike other tools, it allows you to work on large pieces and on pipes and bars, even those in bundles: all your industrial galvanic processing will be perfect, and you will save time and money!
Non-magnetic nickel-plating process: phosphorous isn’t enough
In all those applications where a very low magnetism is required, nickel plating is performed with high phosphorus treatments. These treatments are non-magnetic: phosphorus eliminates the natural magnetism of nickel.
However, it does not ensure the fully non-magnetic result of the process. If a high level of residual magnetization remains in the piece of steel, you will continue to have problems in the chemical nickel-plating process.
The galvanic needle-shaped deposition caused by magnetism
With steel still highly magnetized, the galvanic deposition of the coating is drastically affected by the amount of magnetism present in the piece. The greater the residual magnetic content of the steel, the greater the problems: a needle-like deposit will develop, similar to electrolytic deposits with high current intensities at the tips.
You will therefore not be able to carry out the chemical nickel plating process correctly: the piece will be uneven and will require reworking.
