The invention discloses a
brush plating method for selective
nickel plating in a groove. The
brush plating method comprises the following steps: step 1, removing marks and
dirt in the groove; step 2,
surface preparation; 3, material detection preparation; 4, electrolytic decontamination in the to-be-plated bath: starting
forward voltage, adding
electrolyte into the to-be-plated bath, and brushing back and forth in the to-be-plated bath by using a
nickel plating arc-shaped small
brush handle along the same direction; 5, activating the
metal surface of the to-be-plated bath: starting a reverse
voltage, adding an activating solution into the to-be-plated bath, and brushing back and forth in the to-be-plated bath by using a
nickel plating arc-shaped small brush in the same direction so as to activate the
metal surface of the to-be-plated bath; and 6, nickel plating through
autocatalytic reaction deposition, specifically,
forward voltage is started, nickel plating liquid
medicine is added into a liquid
medicine pipe, meanwhile, brush plating is conducted back and forth above the groove opening face of the to-be-plated groove along with the nickel plating liquid
medicine pipe in the same direction through a large plane brush, the nickel plating liquid medicine and the
metal surface of the part are subjected to the
autocatalytic reaction, and a nickel plating layer is formed. A plating layer can be uniform, natural and attractive, and the qualification rate of brush plating is high.
