Elsyca - Functional Plating Solutions for OEMs and Suppliers
Elsyca provides advanced functional plating solutions that empower OEMs, suppliers, and plating shops to optimize their operations through precise control of electroplating parameters. Their innovative digital twin concept allows users to predict the final deposit thickness even on parts with complex geometries, ensuring high-quality deposit consistency. This capability aids in maintaining uniform deposits, critical for applications using ZN-Ni and other advanced materials to meet stringent environmental regulations. Elsyca also addresses the efficiency challenges of hard chrome plating by defining optimal rack and tooling configurations to decrease post-plating processing times. Their approach strengthens corrosion protection with traditional materials like cadmium, while ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory landscapes. Additionally, their tailored solutions facilitate the integration of modern materials like platinum for high-temperature applications, providing a balance of quality, efficiency, and regulatory compliance in plating operations across industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical.
First time right at the right cost
The product complexity and coating types should not reduce plating production capacity nor limit the final quality of the products. Elsyca's solutions support plating shops and OEMs to:
- verify the plateability of new designs during the early stage of the design process and avoid recalls for aesthetic issues;
- define in-house standards for plating and quality control and make sure to meet quality brand expectations;
- ensure suppliers do have the plating capabilities suited for your designs;
- increase production capacity by up to 45% by selecting the most appropriate tooling arrangement, plating time, or ramp-up parameters;
- reduce the amount of material waste up to 50% and lower rejection rates up to 80%.
The digital twin solutions delivered by Elsyca drive new standards in the plating industry to improve any plating process while maintaining expert know-how in-house.
Verify plateability, ensure repeatability, control costs
OEMs
OEMs can now sleep on both ears when it comes to the quality of the final products. Elsyca's solution for decorative plating supports designers, program managers, and supply quality managers to:
- verify the plateability of new designs during the early stage of the design process;
- meet quality brand expectations;
- avoid recalls for aesthetic issues and increases in costs;
- define in-house standards for plating and quality control;
- check suppliers that have the plating capabilities the most suited for the part at hand.
Suppliers
Suppliers do not have to wait anymore for the parts to arrive in the factory to verify the manufacturability and tune the plating setup. Elsyca's solution provides suppliers the possibility to:
- increase their production capacity by selecting the most appropriate tooling arrangement, plating time, or ramp-up parameters;
- design new tooling if needed and validate upfront their effectiveness;
- assess the effects of temperature, current density, process time on the final products;
- anticipate sharp edges effects on final coating;
- reduce material waste and rejects.
