Fixed vacuum plate clamps styrofoam for machining

Aluminum plate holds styrofoam securely in place for machining operations. The styrofoam is clamped to rubber or cork pads on the plate surface by vacuum. Foam rubber tape provides the vacuum seal.

Electroless nickel plating on stainless steels and aluminum

Procedures for applying an adherent electroless nickel plating on 303 SE, 304, and 17-7 PH stainless steels, and 7075 aluminum alloy was developed. When heat treated, the electroless nickel plating provides a hard surface coating on a high strength, corrosion resistant substrate.

Silver plating ensures reliable diffusion bonding of dissimilar metals

Dissimilar metals are reliably joined by diffusion bonding when the surfaces are electroplated with silver. The process involves cleaning and etching, anodization, silver striking, and silver plating with a conventional plating bath. It minimizes the formation of detrimental intermetallic phases and provides greater tolerance of processing parameters.

Fresnel diffraction plates are simple and inexpensive

Fresnel plate demonstrates diffraction phenomena simply and inexpensively. A large number of identical diffracting apertures are made in random orientation on photographic film. When a small source of light is viewed through the plate, the diffraction pattern typical of the diffracting aperture is readily seen.

Multilayer plated wire shows promise as memory device

Multilayer plated wire memory system surpasses planar thin film memories because of its high speed, simplicity, and high output. The device consists of 5 mil Be-Cu wire plated with Ni-Fe alloy about 1 micron thick crossed orthogonally by word lines.

Improved nickel plating of Inconel X-750

Electroplating technique with acid pickling provides a method of applying nickel plating on Inconel X-750 tubing to serve as a wetting agent during brazing. Low-stress nickel-plating bath contains no organic wetting agents that cause the nickel to blister at high temperatures.
