Does the European lock cylinder factory undergo special treatment, such as electroplating, to prevent rust?

13 Jun Industry News

Material selection and corrosion resistance:
When producing lock cylinders, the European lock cylinder factory usually selects materials with good corrosion resistance, such as copper, stainless steel or specially treated alloy materials. These materials themselves have high corrosion resistance and can reduce the possibility of rust to a certain extent.
Electroplating treatment:
Electroplating is a surface treatment process that uses electrochemical properties to deposit a metal coating of the desired form on the surface of the plated part. The principle is that in a salt solution containing the metal to be plated, the base metal to be plated is used as the cathode, and through electrolysis, the cations of the metal to be plated in the plating solution are deposited on the surface of the base metal to form a coating. The main features of electroplating treatment Good surface quality: Electroplating can form a dense metal layer on the surface of the original substrate with good surface smoothness and uniformity. Due to the good adhesion of the electroplated layer, it is not easy to peel off or age, which effectively extends the service life of the metal. Excellent corrosion and wear resistance: After a layer of another metal is plated on the surface of the metal, a new chemical element can be formed, which effectively improves the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the metal. For example, parts plated with chrome can better resist corrosion, while parts plated with nickel can be more wear-resistant. Low manufacturing cost: Compared with other quality surface treatment technologies, electroplating has the advantages of low cost, easy operation and high production efficiency. In addition, electroplating also has the ability to handle large-sized and complex workpieces.
Electroplating layer thickness and quality standards: During the electroplating process, European lock cylinder factory will strictly control the thickness of the electroplating layer to ensure that it achieves the predetermined anti-corrosion effect. At the same time, the factory will also follow relevant quality standards such as ISO, DIN, etc. to ensure the quality and uniformity of the electroplating layer.
Other anti-corrosion measures: In addition to electroplating, European lock cylinder factory may also adopt other anti-corrosion measures, such as spraying, chemical oxidation, etc. These measures can further improve the anti-corrosion performance of the lock cylinder and keep it in good working condition under various environmental conditions.
Environmental protection and sustainability: When performing electroplating and other anti-corrosion treatments, European lock cylinder factory will pay attention to environmental protection and sustainability. The wastewater and waste gas generated by the electroplating industry contain a large amount of heavy metals and harmful substances, which cause serious pollution to the environment. In order to protect the environment and human health, governments of various countries have introduced strict environmental regulations and emission standards. For example, my country has formulated relevant regulations such as the "Emission Standards for Electroplating Pollutants", which strictly regulate and restrict the discharge of wastewater, waste gas and solid waste in the electroplating industry. In order to meet the challenges of environmental regulations and meet the market demand for environmentally friendly products, the electroplating industry actively develops and applies green electroplating technology. These technologies mainly include cyanide-free zinc plating and chromium-free Dacromet, which can reduce the emission and use of heavy metals and reduce the impact on the environment. More and more electroplating companies recognize the importance of environmental protection and sustainability and actively fulfill their corporate social responsibilities. European lock cylinder factory adopts clean production measures to reduce energy consumption and emissions; strengthens internal management to ensure safe production and environmental compliance; actively promotes green electroplating technology and products to promote the industry to develop in a more environmentally friendly and sustainable direction.
