Wieland AGC Micro Plus - Page 37

The AGC
®
Micro Plus unit enables you to calculate the
required quantity of gold electrolyte. To do this, first set
the required electroforming thickness by means of the
mode button. Then set the required power level using
the channel buttons (1 – 16). The required quantity of
gold electrolyte will then be shown in the 3-digit dis-
play. To clear the inputs, reset all channels to power
level zero or switch the unit off and then on again.
Typical calculations:
➀ Part at power level 5, part at power level 3,
electroforming thickness: 0.2 mm
➜ 49 ml + 28 ml = 77 ml
➁ Part at power level 4,
electroforming thickness: 0.2 mm
➜ 37 ml (use 50 ml, see capacities stated!)
Determining the power level, electroforming thick-
ness and quantity of gold electrolyte required:
Compare the size of the respective surfaces to be
electroplated with the reference samples in the compa-
rison chart.
Refer to the comparison chart to ascertain the power
level and the quantity of gold electrolyte required for
each die and the respective electroforming thickness
(processing time), and add the individual quantities of
gold electrolyte together.
In order to make a better check, you should make a
note of the individual power levels and the required
quantities of gold electrolyte (see Section 9. Deposition
data).
