| a portable operation. The Porta-Pack can be easily toted from site to
site and even brought on an airplane as "carryon" baggage. This saves field
platers that hassle of having to crate and pre-ship the power supply risking damage to the
unit. The Porta-Pack Plus is adaptable to difficult to reach and crowded repair areas
(dimensions of the 50 amp unit: 18 1/4"L x 7 1/2"W x 5 3/4"T . |
Versa-Plater
W.R. Associates has developed a plating touch-up tool that works wonders when trying to
plate in tight areas. The platinum clad anode is .0 15 " thick x 3/4" wide x
3" long. |

|
It is malleable and can be molded to fit in many hard to reach surfaces,
flat or curved. The Versa-Plater has been used with great success in many industries and
for numerous applications including Cadmium touch-up on landing gear, PCB repair, and
decorative.
Our technicians have put the Versa-Plater to use in many plating shops across the globe.
It is compatible with most plating set-ups. And, as with any platinum anode, it is
virtually permanent. |
LDC Turning Head
| LDC has re-designed and improved upon its top-of-the-line
Turning Device for rotating parts to be plated. The new design offers several features and
benefits worth noting: |
 |
1. Highly accurate tachometer allows greater control at low rpms.
2.All stainless steel and Teflon coated chuck to prevent corrosion
3.Three jaw chuck allows for just one adjustment instead of four individual adjustments
with the four jaw chuck.
4. Extremely quiet operation, cuts down on annoying background noise. 5.Electrical outlet
on machine with on/off switch for easy plug in and control of pumps or other auxiliary
equipment. |
Nickel Acid
LDC has added a new Nickel acid solution to its chemical line. LDC-2807 Nickel Acid is a
dense Nickel that can easily deposit several thousandths while operating at room
temperature. Nickel Acid also provides good corrosion resistance. LDC-2807 provides
excellent adhesion eliminating the need for a preplate For more information on how to
determine the best LDC nickel solution for your application, please see the section
titled: "Product Line Review", that features LDC's entire nickel chemical line. |
