Abstract

The present invention provides a precise electroforming method for producing a fine structure of a high-frequency corrugated feed horn, specifically: according to the designed inner cavity structure form of the corrugated feed horn, an electroforming core mold of the feed horn is produced, and the core mold passes through the surface of the horn. After the addition of the anti-corrosion layer, the pictographic anode, cathode rotation, plating liquid jet, bidirectional pulse and physical polishing are used together to precisely electroform copper on the core mold to obtain the feed horn electrocasting, and then the electrocasting is combined with the core. The mold is demolded and separated, and the feed horn is obtained. The invention solves the problem of difficult micro-fabrication of the inner corrugation of the high-frequency corrugated feed horn with high aspect ratio, and uses the precision electroforming technology to obtain the high-frequency corrugated feed horn with low inner surface roughness and no capsule in the annular tooth, which greatly improves the The structural strength of the feed horn produced by electroforming is improved, and the low roughness of the horn surface effectively improves the reliability of microwave signal transmission.
