OUR PROCESS FLOW
A comprehensive 20-step process ensuring the highest quality zinc plating standards.
Goods Inwards
Receipt of raw materials and components, ensuring all documentation is in order for tracking.
Incoming Inspection
Initial quality check to verify the condition of incoming parts before processing begins.
Storage
Secure storage of components in designated areas to prevent damage or contamination prior to plating.
Saw Dust Cleaning
Removal of oil, dust, and loose particles using sawdust cleaning methods for initial surface prep.
Soak Cleaning
Immersion in cleaning agents to loosen and remove stubborn oils and grime from the metal surface.
Water Rinsing (2 Stage)
Thorough two-stage water rinsing to ensure no cleaning agents remain on the parts.
HCL Acid Pickling
First stage of acid pickling to remove rust and scale, preparing the surface for activation.
HCL Acid Pickling
Second stage of acid pickling to ensure a completely clean and reactive metal surface.
Acid Zinc Plating (Vat / Barrel)
Zinc layer deposited via electrolytic process using either Rack/Vat (for larger/delicate parts) or Barrel (for smaller/bulk parts).
Water Rinsing (2 Stages)
Post-plating rinse to remove excess plating solution and stop the plating reaction.
Nitric Dip
Brightening dip in mild nitric acid to activate the zinc surface for passivation.
Water Rinsing
Rinsing to remove nitric acid residues before the passivation step.
Water Rinsing
Additional rinsing to ensure absolute chemical purity on the surface.
All Passivation
Comprehensive passivation process covering all required finishes and specifications.
Hot Water Rinsing
Rinsing with hot water to aid in drying and sealing the passivation layer.
Drying
Thorough drying of parts using centrifugal dryers or hot air to prevent water spots and staining.
Final Inspection
Comprehensive quality check including visual inspection and thickness testing.
Storage of Finished Goods
Proper storage of finished and inspected goods in a controlled environment.
Pre despatch Inspection
Final verification before shipment to ensure all customer requirements are met.
Despatch
Logistics and dispatch of the finished high-quality plated components to the customer.
