MECACHIMIQUE is specialized in three surface treatments:
black coating – gilding – nickel plating
Anti-reflective black coating
or copper black oxide
The key features of our anti-reflective black coating
- Outstanding performance in the visible spectrum
- Hemispheric reflectance < 1,5%
- Certified for space, military and medical applications
- Single- or double-sided treatment
- Compatible with selective masking
Gilding
The key features of our gilding process
- Approved by the European Space Agency (ESA)
- Can be done on sheets or on individual parts
- Sustainable chemical formulation regarding the REACH regulation
- Only for industrial applications
Nickel plating
Nickel electroplating
Chemical nickel plating
The key features of our electrolytic and chemical nickel-plating process
- Electrolytic nickel-plating using nickel sulfamate without organic additives in order to retain the best deposit ductility
- Low phosphorous chemical nickel coating guaranteeing a perfect deposit homogeneity over the whole surface
- Very good corrosion protection
New, modern and environmentally friendly facilities
MECACHIMIQUE has invested in a new surface treatment workshop dedicated to gilding and nickel coating. Facilities use a zero liquid discharge system that recycles water. In this way, we preserve environment and save natural resources. The coating thickness is measured by X-ray fluorescence controlling machine.
