Electroforming

Electroforming is a precise manufacturing process that uses electrical currents to deposit metal onto a specialized mold or pattern, creating a detailed metal replica. In this process, a non-metallic pattern (often made of wax or plastic) is coated with a conductive material and submerged in a solution containing metal ions. When an electric current passes through, metal ions deposit onto the pattern, gradually building up a solid metal layer. After achieving the desired thickness, the original pattern is removed, leaving a pure, detailed metal object. Electroforming is widely used in jewelry, art, and industrial applications for creating intricate, durable metal parts.
