Examples of surface treatment (electroplating, galvanizing, barrel plating) are published!

For barrel plating of fine precision parts. Solving various issues such as entrapment defects in lids. Presenting case studies that compile our know-how! Perfect for surface treatment of precision parts.

The "Super Barrel" is a barrel plating device that achieves high-quality plating with excellent uniformity and adhesion for precision parts (electrical and semiconductor components). Thanks to its unique lid opening and closing mechanism, even extremely small and thin parts are not pinched by the lid, preventing adhesion and snagging on the inner surface. It maintains high plating efficiency while contributing to the improvement of defect rates. We offer a lineup including ultra-compact experimental models, manual motor-equipped types, and automatic machines. We can provide standard sizes as well as accommodate customization of specifications and dimensions. 【Features】 ■ High opening rate ensures efficient stirring of products inside, resulting in excellent plating thickness uniformity. ■ Specially designed electrodes that do not deform, even for easily bendable products. ■ Capable of meeting needs such as extending barrel lifespan and reducing plating time. *For more details, please refer to the materials. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

Countermeasures against clamping defects for ultra-small precision parts and ultra-thin sheet parts! Suppressing the time-dependent deformation of barrels for longer lifespan! For surface treatment, electroplating, and barrel plating!

We would like to introduce a case study that implemented our original "four-sided drop lid (slide opening and closing mechanism)." In terms of design, we manufactured with a lid clearance of at least 0.3 mm for large barrels, 0.2 mm for medium barrels, and 0.1 mm for small barrels, addressing issues with the clamping of extremely small and thin parts. As a result, we successfully eliminated unnecessary sorting processes after the plating process, achieving significant cost reductions. [Case Study] <Problems> ■ We want to eliminate product lid clamping defects and reduce costs. ■ We aim to extend the lifespan by suppressing barrel deformation. <Implementation Effects> ■ Achieved significant cost reductions. ■ Enabled longer lifespan than before. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Improve the refresh rate of the processing liquid in micro-hole barrels or mesh-coated barrels! It enables a reduction in surface treatment and plating time!

Here is a case study introducing the "open-type inclined barrel" equipped with a liquid circulation pump. In a customer’s operation where ultra-fine precision parts are plated using a conventional sealed barrel with a lid opening and closing, the liquid renewal inside and outside the barrel was poor due to the sealed design. As a result, the metal concentration was depleted during the plating process, leading to defects caused by voltage issues. In response, we proposed our product. Additionally, the design allows for easy one-touch detachment of the barrel, enabling the preparation of multiple barrels with different sizes and specifications for various plating products, thus accommodating small-batch, diverse plating processes. 【Case Study】 <Implementation Effects> ■ Capable of handling small-batch, diverse plating processes ■ Improved uniformity of the plating film ■ Enhanced liquid renewal due to the circulation pump ■ Reduction of sticking and floating of ultra-fine products inside the barrel achieved through radial liquid ejection *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Are you having trouble with barrel plating of precision parts? We have the know-how to achieve a more uniform film thickness without defects in barrel plating than ever before!

The "Super Barrel" can achieve very uniform and high-quality plating and surface treatment for precision parts (electrical and semiconductor components), which have traditionally been considered difficult. Electroplating (surface treatment) of precision parts such as chip capacitors and chip resistors has faced issues with size uniformity and defect rates due to their extremely small size. The "Super Barrel" from Kyowa Equipment Manufacturing maintains the high plating efficiency characteristic of barrel plating while improving the defect rates of precision and micro parts. ■ Features - Unique lid opening and closing mechanism that prevents precision parts and micro products from getting stuck or caught on the inner surface. - High opening rate that enhances the stirring efficiency of products inside and excels in plating thickness uniformity. - Specially shaped electrodes that do not deform even with easily bendable products. * For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

At construction sites, temporary parking lots may be established for workers and construction-related vehicles. On unpaved ground, mud and ruts can easily occur due to rain, which may hinder vehicle access. Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. By laying them in temporary parking lots, a suitable environment for vehicle passage and parking can be created while protecting the ground. They can be laid only in the necessary areas, and after the construction is completed, they can be removed and repurposed for temporary roads or access routes. The 5×10 panels weigh approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 panels weigh about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, allowing for changes in parking space. Additionally, they offer benefits unique to wood, such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and CO2 fixation. They are registered as a technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A," and can be utilized for the development of temporary parking lots and innovative public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding repair methods can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Water Supply Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
