| Occupations | 1: Sprays or smears electrically conductive solution onto nonconductive objects, such as baby shoes or plastic molds, or dips objects in solution to prepare objects for electroplating. May electroplate objects [PLATER (electroplating) ]. (references) | 2: Plates component parts, such as micromesh screen patterns and electronic tubes, used in medical and laboratory measuring and controlling instruments, using electrolytic plating tank: Positions screen pattern or component part in frame or on rack, and hangs frame or rack in plating tank. Sets switch for specified plating time, and activates electric current to deposit ionized metal on nonprinted area of screen pattern or component part. Immerses electroformed part in water to rinse off electrolyte, and immerses rinsed part in solvent to dissolve pattern. May measure thickness of electroplating on component part to verify conformance to specifications, using micrometer. (references) | |
