Metal plating

Rhosonics developed specific technology to make inline analysis of electrolytes possible, with a
minimal need for maintenance. The core of the analyzer system is formed by the ultrasonic
sensor, in combination with complementary techniques, providing you real time information
about the concentration of both acid and metal concentration.

Some examples::

  • Cu++ with H2SO4. Both copper ion and acid are analyzed independant of eachother in the
    copper foil and PCB industry. The Model 9570 Dual Chemical Process Analyzer processes
    raw  data from the special hybrid ultrasonic sensor and the conductivity probe, and returns
    real time information about the sulphuric acid concentration as well as the copper content.
    The absence of moving parts and drift significantly reduces the need for maintenance.
  • Other applications include metal ions, like Nickel, Gold, Silver, Chromium and many others.

In metal plating operations, Rhosonics realized many applications, previously only possible with
complex and expensive equipment. Some of those applications, now possible with
Model 8500 Ultrasonic Inline Analyzer are given as example:

  • Passivation liquids for various metal treatment purposes
  • Primers and coatings
  • Emulsions and suspensions

As new process liquids are developed in the industry, Rhosonics well understands the need for
calibration methods for each application. Our application support department is available for
your new application to make specific calibrations, which are implemented and tested in the
analyzers before shipment of your order.
