Electroforming is the process of depositing a thick layer of metal (upto 500 microns or 0.5 mm) over a ‘master’ blueprint object and then removing the ‘master’ through mechanical and chemical means. The illustration above explains the process. The resultant metal layer - forms a hollow object taking the exact replica of the original ‘master blueprint’ and having excellent strength and rigidity. This manufacturing technique is used to make replicas of very complicated hollow shapes and designs which are difficult to make using conventional manufacturing techniques such as sheet metal stamping or casting
