27 March 2025

Celsia, a brand of OMCD Group specializing in the production of electrical contacts, has recently integrated a new technology into its galvanic department: electrolytic tin plating (Sn). Previously outsourced to external suppliers, this process is now managed in-house, providing numerous benefits for customers, including shorter delivery times and a fully integrated service.

What is electrolytic tin plating (Sn)?

Tin plating is a treatment that involves depositing a layer of tin on the surface of a material. In electrolytic tin plating (Sn), the process is carried out using an electric current, ensuring a uniform distribution of the metal on the product’s surface. This treatment is particularly effective in preventing galvanic corrosion while maintaining excellent electrical and thermal conductivity.

A treatment already successfully tested

In Celsia’s galvanic department, tin plating tanks have been added alongside silver plating tanks, allowing both treatments to be offered upon customer request. The system, operational since November 2024, has already received highly positive feedback from customers, who appreciate the quality of the treatment, the perfect adhesion of the tin layer to the treated products, and the precision of its thickness, always meeting the specified requirements.

To ensure quality, Celsia can provide a certificate upon request, confirming the thickness of the tin layer. The measurement is carried out using a couloscope, guaranteeing precision and compliance with required standards.
