Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroplating, and in particular to a universal fixing device for substrate electroplating. Background Technology
[0002] Electroplating is a process that uses the principle of electrolysis to plate a thin layer of metal or alloy onto the surface of a metal or other insoluble material as the anode and the workpiece to be plated as the cathode. The cations of the plating metal are reduced to the plating layer on the surface of the workpiece, thus plating a thin layer of metal or alloy onto the surface of certain metals. It is a process that uses electroplating to attach a metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts, thereby preventing metal oxidation (such as rust), improving wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, corrosion resistance, and enhancing aesthetics.
[0003] When electroplating substrates on a thin-film production line, the substrate needs to be fixed on a specific fixture, which carries the substrate into a gold plating bath for electroplating. However, not all substrates are of the same size and shape. Therefore, for substrates of different specifications and irregular shapes, it is often necessary to design a fixing device with corresponding specifications and shapes, which results in higher operating costs.
