Electroplating technology originates from traditional techniques and is closely related to corrosion, friction, heat treatment, and material technology, as well as being inseparable from modern high-tech. Automobiles can be said to be high-tech products that integrate mechanical, electronic, anti-corrosion, decorative, and material wear technologies. Electroplating technology is closely related to high-speed, high-power, compact, and EGR technology in automobiles, and is widely used in the modern automotive industry.
Electroplating technology is mainly applied in three aspects: automotive transmission systems, suspension systems, and automotive decorative parts.
Pistons, piston rings, and connecting rods are the three major moving parts of automotive engines, with friction losses accounting for 40% to 50% of all engine losses. Improving the quality of pistons, piston rings, and connecting rods, enhancing their friction environment, has significant implications for reducing engine vibration, noise, and fuel consumption. Due to the inability of the original materials to withstand high strength, high thermal vibration, and high friction working environments, they require special surface treatment to enhance their performance.
