The transition from plating small parts to plating large parts is not as simple as it first appears. Factors that can be safely ignored when dealing with small parts can cause severe problems when attempting to plate larger parts. This paper will be organized around four of these factors: Mass, Volume, Surface Area, and Conductivity. The implications of these factors on processing of large components will be discussed, along with suggested techniques to compensate for adverse effects.
