EMF is a leader in Nickel Cobalt Electroforming. Electroforming, similar to electroplating, uniquely involves the fabrication of a part by itself using an existing surface. It creates its own thick, self-supporting standalone metal component. This process requires electric current to pass through a metal solution containing dissolved metallic salts that are attracted to an electrically charged surface. This surface produces a negative charge (typically a nickel saddle or stainless-steel mandrel) and with this process, our EMF experts can put on continuous layers of nickel to achieve complex and intricate geometries.
Past EMF Nickel Cobalt Electroforming Projects
Super Nova Laser Program
Pictured on the right are a few components that EMF worked on for the Super Nova Laser Program, which during its time, was the highest-energy laser system in the world hitting a petawatt for the first time in history.
EMF completed a massive arrange of abrasions strips for the project. Starting from just a couple inches long, at roughly 4 to 8 thousandths thick, to our bigger blades, spanning 16 plus feet and anywhere from 1 Thousandths to 90 thousandths in thickness.
