Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Multi-layer board plating workers are specialists who attach multiple metal layers to the surfaces of electronic components or industrial parts through chemical treatment or electroplating, imparting functions such as corrosion resistance, conductivity, and solderability.
Description
Multi-layer board plating workers perform operations involving pre-treatment, undercoating, and sequential application of multiple metal layers by combining chemical plating and electroplating on substrates of electronic or metal parts. Primarily aimed at improving corrosion resistance, rust prevention, conductivity, and solderability, they handle plating solution adjustment, temperature and pH management, plating thickness measurement, appearance inspection, and quality control. Work in the latest automated equipment and clean room environments is increasing, requiring knowledge of materials science, chemical processing, and safety and health management capabilities.
Future Outlook
With the push for higher functionality in electronic devices and automotive parts, along with stricter environmental regulations, demand for multi-layer plating technology to enhance corrosion resistance and conductivity is expected to remain stable. As automation and precision advance, the role of specialized technicians will become increasingly important.
