AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there are also some defects and limitations in electroforming, mainly in: (1) Due to the edge effect of the current, the power lines are easy to concentrate at the sharp corners and edges of the mandrel, and the shielding effect of the side wall of the groove on the bottom of the groove , resulting in relatively sparse power lines at the bottom of the tank, resulting in poor uniformity of the electroforming layer and low tissue density; (2) During the deposition of metal ions, hydrogen and other gases precipitated from the surface of the cathode will stay on the surface of the cathode and cause hydrogen embrittlement, resulting in Defects such as pitting and nodules appear on the surface of the casting layer, which reduces the deposition rate of the metal; (3) Due to the low current density applicable to electroforming, the deposition rate of the metal is slow, resulting in a long processing cycle, etc.
