VM Manufacturing 10 AMP Compact Plating Machine 110V

A palm-size rectifier for plating at the bench, for bath work, selective touch-ups and spot highlights without a full-size power supply. The VM Manufacturing 10 AMP Compact Plating Machine replaces bulky, old-style rectifiers with a unit weighing about 3/4 lb (350 g) and measuring 5" × 3" × 1-1/2", while still delivering up to 10 A intermittent (8 A continuous) for batch work, enough to plate approximately 30 rings at a time. It supports bath plating, brush (selective) plating and pen plating, and includes the brush plating attachment and the pen plating attachment. Made in the USA by VM Manufacturing, a division of Vaniman.

Features

• High output, tiny footprint: 10 A intermittent / 8 A continuous in a handheld form factor.
• Three plating modes: bath plating, brush plating and pen plating, with built-in pen connections.
• Wide operating range: 1.5 V DC to 12 V DC, with a large digital display showing voltage and amperage simultaneously.
• Built-in protection: over-current, over-voltage and short-circuit protection for longer service life.
• Bench friendly: light, compact and stows in a drawer when not in use.
• Made in the USA by VM Manufacturing (a division of Vaniman).

Notes

What you get:

• VM 10 A compact plating machine
• 10 A rated plating leads (cables)
• Brush plating attachment
• Pen plating pen

• On power-up, allow approximately 6–10 seconds for the unit to energize; when the display reads 1.5 V or higher, plating can begin.
• Appropriate anodes and solutions are required for your process; bath plating solutions and pen plating solutions are sold separately.
• Brush plating applies bath plating solution selectively to a specific area without an immersion tank, which suits touch-ups and on-part repairs.
• Pen plating uses a felt-tip pen to apply specialized pen plating solutions for precise highlights and spot plating.
• Follow all chemical and electrical safety practices and wear appropriate PPE. Verify voltage and current settings for the solution and alloy in use to avoid over-plating or burning.
