Applications
PPS, ABS, ABS+PC, PA etc. Requires electroplating plastics
PPS engineering plastics in the Automotive Industry
The vehicle systems pursuing fuel efficiency, lightweight, emission reduction and design flexibility, when come to material’s selection, compared with metal, engineering plastic shows its advantages and unlimited potential. The PPS is so special because they contribute significantly to the qualify of life on automotive industry with theirs versatile properties: more efficient and safer, more comfortable and more beautiful; unlimited on design ideas and forming process, more flexible.
PVD direct plating on PPS Plastic
Nickel electroplating on PPS which has been accomplished using a traditionally Palladium / Tin colloidal-type activation system with electroless chemical treatment, this process is called roughening.. While increasing stringent environmental conditions as well as substantial cost reductions called for by the automobile industry have forced the electroplating industry to look for techniques such as direct metallization processes .
In year of 2019, we received a request from our local customer who is providing the electroplating services for automotive plastic components. “Is that possible to coat Ni directly on engineering plastics to replace the electroless process and make the Palladium-Free?” asked Mr. Woo the owner of JS company.
Royal Technology spent 6 months to made experiments and successfully developed the proper coating process and the result satisfy customer’s quality testing terms. The direct metallization layer makes the plastics transit from non-conduction to conductive and then get post-treatment with Cu/Ni/Cr electroplating process.
“It is a disruptive coating method for automotive industry, we are
so happy to say Good-bye to electropless process”, Mr. Woo said
excitingly.

RTAS model,the arc and sputtering integrated series equipment can produce highly reflective black and bronze films specifically for high quality decorative coatings.
RTSP1200-FCEV, It is a sputtering system with PECVD process to deposit thin film on hydrogen fuel cell power modules. Fuel Cell Vehicles is the newest technology for the next generation of environmentally friendly cars. The main advantage and technological progress compared to commonly used batteries like dry cell need to undergo a recurring recharging process, but hydrogen fuel cell power modules only require Hydrogen and Oxygen reaction to generate power for driving.
RTSP1200-DPC,This coating system is exclusively used for the DPC (Direct Plating Copper) ceramic substrates process. The DPC ceramic substrates are widely used in various applications: for instance in high brightness LED to increase the longevity because of its high heat radiation performance, Semiconductor equipment, in microwave wireless communication, military electronics, various sensor substrates, aerospace, railway transportation, electricity power and much more.
RT-CsI950, Evaporation coating plant is applied to CsI film deposition for X-Ray Imaging devices. It is an advanced technique to evaporate CsI on the screen to create high quality images. The high-resolution performance allows this application to be extremely efficient and disruptive in the medical instrument, nuclear energy industry, security checking and inspection, high energy physics subjects and more.
Shanghai Royal Technology also successfully designed and developed Cube and Cylinder model large size Aluminum Vacuum Metalizing System which is used for Automotive Logo Board Coating.
