CA forms buried in a filing cabinet no one opens.
Bath parameters drift before anyone notices.
Defects, CAs, and lab results in three different places.
Days spent reconstructing records for ISO or AS9100.
Corrective actions opened. Never closed.
And they just gave notice.
From the moment a bath drifts to the moment the corrective action closes — every step is linked.
Search any plating problem and get a structured answer. No setup. Works on your first visit. Every guide covers root causes, corrective actions, and prevention strategies — all written by industry professionals.
Know the moment a bath drifts. Western Electric Rules detect special cause variation before it becomes a defect.
Every defect is a link in the chain. Log it from the lab, tie it to a line and tank, and launch a corrective action in one click.
Guide your team through 5 Whys, Fishbone, or 8D — then export a professional PDF report. Quality managers love this.
CA aging. Defect rates by line. Out-of-spec frequency. All in one place. Know your shop's quality posture at a glance.
Track every prospect from first call to closed deal. Log quotes, schedule follow-ups, and set revenue targets — so nothing slips through the cracks while you're running the lab.
See every customer on a live map. Build optimized routes, track open opportunities by region, and show up to every call with a plan.
Share chemistry data with a short access code. Your service rep and your customer see the same live data — every reading attributed to whoever logged it. No scanning required — just enter the 8-character share code.
Walk the line with a structured checklist. Flag issues in real time, track pass/fail by station, and export a professional audit PDF before you leave the shop.
Pick a process, enter your tank volume, and get a complete chemical shopping list in seconds — 63 processes covered. For electroless lines, the MTO tracker watches cumulative metal turnover and color-codes bath health from fresh to dump, so you're never guessing when to remake.
Track every drum, bottle, and bucket on hand. Reorder alerts fire before you run dry, and every bath addition auto-deducts from stock — so your inventory stays honest without extra paperwork.
ChemStream and Sample Intake — all in one place. Receive samples with structured intake forms, full chain-of-custody tracking, and automatic status notifications to customers. Every lab tool feeds the same quality loop.
Assign a unique ID to every piece of equipment on your floor — rectifiers, meters, balances, ovens. Track manufacturer, model, serial number, and location. Upload calibration certificates, set expiration dates, and get dashboard alerts when calibrations are due or overdue. NADCAP and ISO 9001 audit-ready from day one.
Export print-ready PDF labels for every tank and piece of equipment in your shop. Stick them on. Scan with any phone camera. PlateMastr instantly opens the right record — bath history, maintenance log, or a pre-filled log form. No searching, no manual navigation. Your entire plating line becomes scannable.
Post troubleshooting questions, share war stories, and tap the experience of platers across the industry. Helpful answers get upvoted. Threads can nominate guides for the Process Intelligence library. The plating industry's first professional discussion forum — built into your quality platform.
Earn verifiable certifications by reading guides, passing quizzes, and demonstrating knowledge across plating processes. Track your team's progress. Each certification is backed by real quiz performance — not just seat time. Show auditors and customers that your operators know their chemistry.
Rack Runner challenges your electroplating knowledge in a fast-paced obstacle course. PlateShop lets you build and manage a virtual plating shop. Both games reinforce real chemistry concepts while keeping training engaging. Earn badges, compete on leaderboards, and discover that learning process chemistry can actually be fun.
