1、 Electroforming sign

Not necessarily. That's what people call electroforming signs. Let's have a look at the name of electroforming signs.

Electroformed signs are divided into two types: electroformed thick signs and electroformed thin signs (also known as nickel sheet signs). Or these names: ultra thin nickel signs, metal logo labels, electroformed split labels, metal split labels, etc. There are others called electroforming words, metal self-adhesive labels and so on. They are all metal logos in the figure below. Wine signs and aluminum signs are also signs, ha, but the names and materials are different.

Electroforming generally uses more metal nickel. Nickel is deposited on gypsum master mold with the same size as composite parts by electroplating process (considering the thermal deformation of the workpiece, the size of the master mold may need to be corrected). The most critical requirement for the master mold is that it must maintain good dimensional stability in the electroplating forming process. One of the main advantages of this technology is that the most time-consuming process is limited to the manufacture of the master mold, while the subsequent replication process has relatively low operation cost and good reproducibility, once it is produced The mold surface can be produced and a good high finish surface can be obtained by using standard metal surface polishing technology. Electroformed nickel mold has the advantages of good durability, scratch resistance and relatively easy repair, and has good demoulding performance with most commonly used composite materials. The greatest advantage of this mold is that the size of the designed parts is only limited by the size of the electroplating bath and the production technology of the master mold The final mold is usually only a few millimeters thick, so it must be installed on the support structure called "egg frame structure". If the mold can withstand the forming pressure of the autoclave, the design of this "egg frame" support structure can greatly reduce the heat required than the solid structure.

2、 Use of electroformed signs

It has a wide range of uses, including electronics, computers, digital products, furniture, gift packaging, etc. Although it is a small metal logo, there are many processes, which greatly improve the texture of products, so it is useful in more and more products.
