Development of Electroforming Technique for Fabricating Electroformed Diamond Tool with High Grain Density

A study on the wear resistance characteristics of pulse electroforming Ni–P alloy coatings as plated

“…In recent years, scientists have developed MEMS structures and components with small size such as micron, sub-micron or even nanometer scales [11][12][13][14] constructed by LIGA and Ni electroforming techniques. Micro-components can make as active or passive contact mechanism that must exhibit suitable tribological characteristics for service in stern environments.…”

The heat treatment effects on the structure and wear behavior of pulse electroforming Ni–P alloy coatings

“…In view of nano-or micro-structural technology, the requirement in the system regulation of lithography electroforming micro-molding (LIGA) and micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) is that the Ni-based micro-electroforming methods be given utmost importance, say for instance in Ni-based microgrinding tool [1,2], mini-motor revolving shaft and bearing [3], micro-gear train, piston-cylinder burner or mini-turbine [4]. The contact and friction characteristics of micro-tools, power device and transmission element are generally subjected to severely high temperatures, high-pressured environment and strict con- * Corresponding author.…”
