Information profile @ a Glance
  • Electroforming is a process of converting holographic image (relief) from photo-resist or plastic to metal (nickel).
  • Electroforming is a space age technology used effectively to produce shapes and accuracies in metal products unmatched by any other fabrication method.
  • Electrochemistry, and additives in plating baths, permit close control of electroformed parts. Results are now as reproducible as those obtained with welding, casting, forging, and other conventional techniques.
  • Electroforming is ideal for applications where stamping, photochemical etching and laser cutting simply cannot achieve tight tolerances or complex / specific hole shapes.
  • The metals that can be electroformed successfully are copper, nickel, iron or silver, thickness up to 16 mm, dimensional tolerances up to 1 μm, and surface finishes of 0.05 μm Ra. The ability to manufacture complex parts to close tolerances and cost effectively has meant that electroforming has applications both in traditional/macro manufacturing and new micromanufacturing fields. These include tooling; mould making; fabrication of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and the combination of lithography, electroforming and plastic moulding in the LIGA process. Applications in micro-optics and medicine are included
  • The most important thing one should remember about electroforming—it replicates minute detail. In comparison with other methods of making numismatic items: foundry casting reproduces detail down to 1/100 of an inch, die striking reproduces detail down to 1/1000th of an inch, but electroforming reproduces detail down to the width of an atom!
  • Probably the biggest money maker is by electroforming items from nature. Electroforming is the plating of non-metallic. Leaves and sea shells electroformed in gold and silver The nice part about making jewelry by electroforming is the low cost and the availability of free items from nature. Some of these items include  acorns, sea horses, sea shells, sand dollars, flowers, parsley, lettuce and many other beautiful items from nature.
