Abstract Available stylus measurement technique jointly with digital computation have been used for the quantitative assessment of surface topography . Evaluation of the applicability of such attainable parameters as related to influence of preliminary abrasion on topography characteristics of electroplated surfaces has been examined. The performance of abrasive paper regarding metal removal rate and surface topography for abraded surface has been assessed, and a new method for the determination of active grits has been developed. Besides, mathematical models for abrasive wear/surface finish has been discussed and a modified one has been suggested as a result of its proved validity when compared with experimental measurements. Furthermore, mathematical model regarding electro-plating leveling have been developed for nickel plating solutions. Optimization of abrasion preceding electroplating has been reached. |
