[0002] Electroplating is an important step in the production process of PCB boards. During the process of hanging plating, the two ends of the circuit board are at a certain distance from the edge of the electroplating tank, resulting in the current density of the circuit board at both ends being greater than that in the middle during electroplating. Therefore, the thickness of the circuit board near the two sides of the target will be greater than that in the middle of the target. In order to make the circuit board electroplated evenly, it is necessary to use a plating bar placed at both ends of the target so that the thickness of the circuit board at both ends of the target is the same as that of the circuit board in the middle of the target, and it is evenly plated.

[0003] In the existing electroplating equipment, the plating strip is fixed to the equipment by screws or clamps. After loading, the side of the PCB will contact the inner side of the plating strip. Every time the product is changed, the position of the plating strip needs to be adjusted to adapt to the electroplating processing of products of different specifications. The adjustment process is cumbersome, which undoubtedly increases the workload of workers, wastes manpower, reduces effective working hours, and affects production efficiency.
