Electroforming is generally a slower, more expensive process, and, particularly for larger sizes and thicknesses is generally limited to hard and soft nickel.
This technology enables the reproduction of very precise detailing, with tolerances of as little as a few microns, irrespective of the complexity of the original image. Moreover - unlike with photochemical etching - no attachment joints are required. Objects can be treated with galvanic post-processing, and can be manufactured in many layers.
Technical Characteristics and Materials
Advantages of Electroforming
Electroforming is an inverse process to photochemical etching, one in which metal is layered on a mould of conductive material, which reproduces - as a "negative" - the image to be manufactured. This way, a faithful reproduction of the image chan be achieved.
