摘要
A novel method based on mid-frequency vibration is proposed to eliminate coating defects such as bubbles during electroless nickel plating. An automated control system for the plating, enabling precise and stable measurements and adjustments of critical parameters such as plating solution temperature, pH, and nickel ion concentration, is also established, which significantly improves process efficiency and coating quality. Experimental results indicate that the system is capable of realizing stable operation over extended periods. A nonporous nickel-phosphorus coating with a thickness greater than 200 mu m is successfully obtained, with high phosphorus content, robust adhesion, and superior machinability.
