Chrome plating: Combination of gloss and durability


Chrome plating is a common surface treatment process, widely used in automotive parts, such as car door lock handles, skylight rails, etc. The chromium coating has excellent gloss and wear resistance, which can significantly improve the appearance quality of the product. DMMold's chrome plated automotive die castings ensure uniformity and adhesion through advanced electroplating processes. Chromium coating can not only effectively prevent the corrosion of parts, but also maintain a good gloss in daily use. The application of this surface treatment process makes DMMold's automotive die castings stand out in the market and become an ideal choice for automotive manufacturers.

Zinc plating: Economical and efficient protection


Zinc plating is an economical and efficient surface treatment process for a variety of automotive die castings, such as engine mounts and transmission housings. Zinc coating has good corrosion resistance and wear resistance, which can effectively protect parts from environmental factors. DMMold's zinc-plated automotive die castings ensure uniformity and thickness of the coating through a precise plating process. Zinc coating can not only provide reliable protection, but also improve the appearance quality of the product to a certain extent. The application of this surface treatment process enables DMMold's automotive die castings to be cost-effective while maintaining high performance.


Comparison of zinc plating and chromium plating


Chromium plating and zinc plating are both common surface treatment processes, but they have significant differences in performance and application. Chromium coating has higher gloss and wear resistance, and is suitable for parts with high appearance requirements. However, the chromium plating process is relatively complex and costly. Zinc plating is a more economical option, suitable for parts with high corrosion resistance requirements. Although the gloss of zinc coating is not as good as that of chromium coating, it has good wear resistance and adhesion.
