Carbon Steel Frame Manual Plating Line Electroplating Equipment For Industrial Plating

Manual Plating Line & Plating Equipment

Brief Introduction

This manual plating line is designed for flexible and cost-effective electroplating applications. Loading and unloading, as well as vertical lifting and horizontal movement, are manually operated. The simple mechanical configuration allows operators to adjust the plating sequence according to different process requirements.

Main Features

1. Durable Line Frame
The main equipment frame is manufactured from A3-type carbon steel and coated with an epoxy protective finish on the external surface to improve corrosion resistance. The frame color can be customized according to customer requirements.

2. Chemical-Resistant Plating Tanks
The process tanks are available in PP, PVC, or PVDF, selected according to the characteristics and chemical compatibility requirements of the process solution. This helps provide reliable corrosion protection and extend equipment service life.

3. Reliable Electrical Components
The control system uses industrial electrical components from established manufacturers, including:

• PLC: Mitsubishi Electric, Japan

• Inverter: Mitsubishi Electric, Japan

• Touch Screen: Kunlun Technology

• Proximity and Photoelectric Sensors: Omron

• Contactors and Thermal Relays: Omron

4. Practical Control Cabinet Design
The electrical control cabinet features a structured and easy-to-maintain layout. Internal wiring is clearly organized and identified with corresponding line numbers, while operating components are clearly labeled in English.

The cabinet is designed to provide protection against moisture and corrosive operating environments, helping improve electrical system reliability and ease of maintenance.
