Nickel Plated Die Cast Appliance Leg

Nickel plated die cast appliance leg is not a new technology. However, the number of these products being sold has risen, with the consumer electronics industry claiming 15% of the market share. Despite its growing popularity, this industry still has challenges.
Nickel-free plating is becoming an option for some consumer electronics manufacturers, opening up a variety of opportunities. As the name suggests, the nickel-free plating process essentially replaces the traditional sulfide-based nickel containing plating, which results in a cheaper and less environmentally harmful alternative.
Although there are many alternatives, the die casting process remains the most common means of producing metal parts, and it can be used to produce a wide range of parts, from simple household appliances to intricate electronics. Die casting is a relatively cheap and easy to manufacture process, compared to other manufacturing methods, and it is a viable alternative to MIM (metal injection molding).
In order to keep your investment in nickel plated die cast appliance leg safe, there are several precautions to take. First, you can avoid exposing your product to the air and water, and there are also several steps you can take to ensure that the sulfide-based plating is applied properly.
Second, you can use epoxies to improve adhesion. These organic coatings are more resistant to corrosion and provide excellent wear resistance.
Finally, you can use high thermal conductivity materials to increase heat transfer. This is usually done through the application of a heat sink.
