Electrodeposition Process

Servometer produces parts by the process of electrodeposition, building thin layers of metal onto a precision-machined mandrel. We have refined this technique to make intricate parts with unusual shapes, thin walls, deep crevices and other design features. Tightly controlled electrodepositing baths ensure the highest part quality. Modern test instruments ensure exception quality. Our electroforming process is especially crafted for tolerance-critical miniature parts. The precision electroforming process produces hollow parts with walls as thin as 0.0003" [.008 mm]. Miniature applications include electrical bellows contacts with walls 0.0005" [.013 mm] thick for circuit boards and flexible nickel bellows just 0.020" [.51 mm] diameter for laboratory instruments. Larger parts are produced with walls up to .025" [.64 mm] thick. Servometer has even electroformed ultra lightweight reflectors several feet in diameter.
