Our equipment integrates sophisticated material handling, precise chemical management, and advanced process control systems to ensure optimal performance and reliability. We focus on delivering lines that provide exceptional coating uniformity, excellent adhesion, and minimal material waste, while also adhering to stringent environmental standards. Partner with Raymond for a robust and efficient continuous strip plating solution that enhances your product quality, optimizes production efficiency, and provides a competitive edge in the global market.

Core Advantages of Raymond Strip Continuous Plating Equipment Lines
High Production Efficiency: Designed for continuous, high-speed operation, significantly increasing throughput and reducing processing time compared to traditional batch methods.
Superior Coating Uniformity: Ensures consistent plating thickness and quality across the entire length and width of the strip, crucial for precision components.
Reduced Material Handling: Automated unwinding, processing, and rewinding minimize manual intervention, leading to lower labor costs and reduced risk of material damage.
Precise Process Control: Advanced PLC and HMI systems allow for real-time monitoring and precise control of plating parameters, including current density, temperature, and chemical composition.
Versatile Application: Capable of plating various metals (e.g., gold, silver, nickel, tin, copper) onto different strip materials (e.g., steel, copper alloys, brass) for diverse industrial needs.
Selective Plating Capabilities: Our lines can be configured for selective plating, allowing specific areas of the strip to be plated while others remain untouched, saving precious metal costs.
Enhanced Adhesion & Durability: Optimized pre-treatment and plating processes ensure strong adhesion of the metallic layer, providing long-lasting performance and corrosion resistance.
Environmental Responsibility: Integrated chemical recovery, wastewater treatment, and fume extraction systems minimize environmental impact and ensure compliance with regulations.

Process Flow

The Raymond Strip Continuous Plating Equipment Line follows a meticulously engineered multi-stage process to ensure high-quality and consistent plating on continuous metal strips.

Unwinding & Pre-treatment

The metal strip coil is unwound and fed into the line. It undergoes a series of cleaning and activation steps, including degreasing, rinsing, and acid pickling, to prepare the surface for optimal plating adhesion.

Electroplating Sections

The strip passes through multiple plating cells, where the desired metal is electrodeposited onto its surface. Each cell is precisely controlled for current density, electrolyte composition, and temperature to achieve uniform coating thickness and quality. Selective plating can be performed in specific zones.

Multi-Stage Rinsing & Post-treatment

After plating, the strip undergoes thorough multi-stage rinsing to remove residual chemicals. Depending on the application, post-treatment processes like passivation, drying, or anti-tarnish treatments may be applied.

Drying & Rewinding

The processed strip is then dried using hot air or infrared systems and precisely rewound onto a finished coil, ready for subsequent manufacturing steps or direct use.
