Summary of Presentation:
While electroplating technology has been around for more than 150 years, new customer end use requirements, ever-present downward pressure on process costs and evolution of environmental regulation continue to drive chemistry and process equipment innovation. Examples of new plating technologies designed to help TE Connectivity stay ahead of these challenges will be presented, together with some crystal ball gazing about what kinds of changes may be coming over the next 10 – 20 years.
