The invention discloses a low-energy-consumption
electroplating treatment method which comprises the following steps: step 1) pretreatment: a flexible
metal substrate sequentially passes through a first pretreatment solution and a second pretreatment solution, and is subjected to oil removal,
rust removal and
acid etching; (2) first grid layer treatment is conducted, specifically, the prepared grid layer liquid is sprayed to the surface of the flexible
metal base material to form a first grid layer; (3) spraying is conducted, specifically, the flexible
metal base material is placed in an automatic spraying
machine, the face to be plated is bent outwards to be subjected to spraying, and a first metal plating layer is formed; (4) second grid layer treatment is conducted, specifically, prepared grid layer liquid is sprayed to the surface of the first
metal coating to form a second grid layer; and (5) water
electroplating is conducted, specifically, water
electroplating is conducted on the flexible metal base material subjected to spray plating, the face to be plated is bent outwards to be subjected to water electroplating, and a second metal plating is formed outside the first metal plating. On the basis of optimization, low
sheet resistance and high
binding force of a product can be guaranteed, and
machining energy consumption is reduced.
