Reel-to-Reel plating is an efficient and economical process which allows for select deposits of metal.  This process can plate strips of manufactured products or reels of raw material before they are stamped into parts.  This starts by loading the reels onto a de-reeling station.  Then by using a capstan system, the product is fed through various plating processes.  At the end of the line is a take-up system which re-spools the material once the appropriate finish is achieved.  Multiple reels can be ran with the use of an accumulator which facilitates a smooth transition  between them.  


Klein Plating has invested heavily in its reel-to-reel processes to ensure high quality, on-time and economical plating.  We employ highly trained operators who specialize in reel plating to ensure your most stringent requirements are met.  Our capabilities range from small one reel jobs to large production runs for flat stock, continuous stampings, and bandoliered parts. Reel size is limited to 500 lb. capacity and coil stock/part length to 3" width.
