Electroplaing Industry In China
plating production line
Since reform and opening up, see greater development of electroplating industry in China, foreign-funded, joint venture and private firms, the emergence of a large number of a certain size, advanced technology and electroplating enterprises. According to incomplete statistics, there are nearly 20,000 electroplating factory, 40% of electroplating plants concentrated in the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta, 60% of the total national output in both regions. Electroplating enterprises are located in all walks of life, are: mechanical industry, light industry, electronics industry 20.2%-15% 33.8% and the rest distributed in aeronautics, Astronautics, and Instrumentation industries. Plating processing is the most widely covered in zinc, copper, nickel, chrome, including zinc plating 35%-45%, about copper, nickel, chromium 20%, electronics lead, tin plating, gold accounted for 5%. Plating generally small-scale enterprises in China, a small number of enterprises with international advanced level of equipment and facilities, with advanced technology, but most companies are still using outdated and obsolete equipment, or even manually.
Electro-plating on China's economic development is enormous, from the industrial contribution to the development of electroplating industry in Guangdong Province, Guangdong can explain.
1, the electronics industry. From 1991 to 2006, the output value of the electronic information industry of Guangdong province ranks first in the country for 13 consecutive years. Sales revenue of over 10 billion yuan of the 16jiabai companies in Guangdong have 7. The development of these enterprises, are inseparable from the development of electroplating industry.
1) CPU IC production and other LSI integrated circuits packaging choice for electroplating and electroless plating technology;
2) LSI chip resistors and chip capacitors on the PCB production requires the use of vibration electroplating technique.
3) over the years in our country PCB (printed circuit board), industry development for world attention. Between 2003 and the world's second largest producer, the main process plating of PCB production, including through-hole plating (copper electroless plating), pattern plating (copper), tin plating, electroless gold.
4) micro, motor shaft must be using electroless plating in order to increase the hardness and wear resistance. Electrode material in batteries is using electroplating on nickel foam process. Televisions, stereos, microphones, computers and many parts have to be plated in order to improve resistance of concealment.
2, the automotive industry. Guangdong produced 555,200 cars worldwide last year, the automobile industry output value of 116.223 billion yuan in January-November last year, Guangzhou automobile and component exports to $ 807 million. Automotive wheels, muffler exhaust pipe, circuit printed, senior plaque without electroplating.
3, above designated size in Guangzhou last year Crime completed industrial output of about 460 billion yuan, an increase of 21% and heavy industry to the industrial growth of over 75%. Almost all of the machinery manufacturing industry, such as heavy machinery, construction machinery, mining machinery, plastics machinery, paper machinery, machine tools, automotive, automotive molds without plating.
4, lighting: the lighting industry in China in recent years, rapid and stable development. In 2003, total trade volume exceeded 100 billion yuan. At present, guzhen, Zhongshan has 60% per cent of domestic production, lighting by Asia. Lighting needs is widely imitation gold plating and black nickel, and gold-plated, silver-plated, electrophoresis, and more.
5, bathroom plumbing products: China is a producer of plumbing products, production accounted for more than 30% of the world. I, Shuikou town, Kaiping was one of three of the nation's largest plumbing production base, and annual output value of 3 billion yuan Guangzhou Seagull toiletries company, is for the international bathroom brand supporting enterprises, in 2006, the company's turnover exceeded 1.7 billion yuan. Guangdong sanitary products accounted for more than 40% in the domestic market. Plumbing products to a variety of plating, electroplating process, the products has good corrosion resistance and decorative.
6 lock: in 2003, Siu Lam, locks companies valued over 4 billion enterprise, annual production capacity of lock 340 million. Locks need to be widely imitated gold black nickel plating and some parts need to be galvanized.
7, metal furniture: is the production of furniture, Guangdong Province, "major", furniture production accounted for the country's top one-third, accounted for more than 15% of the country's total exports. Furniture is usually copper plus nickel plus chromium electroplating of metals, high-end furniture and multi-layer nickel electroplating, furniture requires oxidation of aluminum alloy electrolytic coloring.
8, the jewellery industry: according to statistics, Hong Kong in Guangdong Province has more than 90% inlay jewelry is processed. Guangdong Province has more than 100 several inlay jewelry processing plant year-round for processing foreign jewelry, and annual output value of more than 2 billion dollars. Meanwhile, Guangdong Province, there are thousands of imitation jewellery manufacturer, annual output value of more than 5 billion yuan. Can say, in terms of inlaid jewellery and imitation jewellery, Guangdong Province, have obvious advantages, has the ability to become the world's Center of inlaid jewellery and imitation jewellery, and Foundation. Surface required electroplating inlay jewellery and imitation jewellery precious metals such as silver, gold, rhodium, and ruthenium. Plating processing output value is estimated at 1 billion yuan.
