The invention relates to the field of aluminum-
silicon alloy electroplating, in particular to a method for improving the
nickel electroplating quality of aluminum-
silicon alloy. The method comprises the steps of organic oil removal, cleaning, electrolytic
degreasing,
drying,
sand blasting, cleaning, oil removal, cleaning, descaling, cleaning,
racking, cleaning, activation, cleaning, hard sulfuricacid
anodizing, cleaning,
copper pre-plating, cleaning, activation, cleaning,
nickel pre-plating,
nickel plating, cleaning, cleaning with hot water, cleaning and
drying. According to the method, through adding of the steps of activation and hard
sulfuric acid anodizing, the bonding between a substratum and
copper plating is promoted, and generation of watermarks after plating is avoided; the qualified rate reaches 97%, and
rework is reduced after the plating quality is qualified; the plating cost is reduced, so that the overall manufacturing cost is further reduced; meanwhile, the delivery cycle is shortened; and the method is high in
adaptation to operators, and benefits scale promotion.
