Established in 1995, Digital Matrix Corporation provides world-class precision electroforming & plating equipment, systems, specialty electronic components, and development/ consulting services to industry, governments, and universities in 24 countries.
The art and science of applying transitional metals to objects through chemical deposition dates back thousands of years to the metallurgists, artisans and alchemists of ancient civilizations such as those in Egypt and India. Today, state-of-the-art electroforming & plating methods are used to “grow” precisely formed metal components essential to manufacturing optical discs, microchips, holographics, nanotechnology elements, vinyl recordings, fluidics and more.

Media Disc Manufacturing
Vinyl RecordingsThe resurgence in demand for vinyl recordings in the music industry has led to a need for increased manufacturing capacity. Creating high-quality records for end-user sale calls for the production of a nickel-plated master disk used to press-out the finished product. Digital Matrix has available state-of-the-art plating systems designed to efficiently produce these “stampers.”

Optical Disc MediaSince 1995, Digital Matrix has been manufacturing electroforming systems (plating that separates from the mandrel) for the CD and DVD manufacturing industry world-wide. Digital Matrix has also been at the forefront in the development of stamper manufacturing for the new generation Blu-Ray and HD DVD formats.
Contact us with your requirements.
Although the complete processes are quite different, both optical media (CDs, DVDs) and vinyl record stampers use rotational plating setups applying nickel deposit onto the circular substrate. Shown below is our VLP/1002 fast-plating system in 2-cell x 2 configuration, in effect 4 production cells using a common master panel and sump.

Prototyping & Production Services
Additive manufacturing through electroforming can bring many economic and quality-control benefits to your manufacturing process compared to other production methods such as 3-D printing, chemical etching, laser cutting or stamping. Electroforming provides a high-precision, atom-by-atom deposition to create critical components for state-of-the art equipment used in a wide array of devices for medical, optical, gaming, and many other industry applications.
We recognize that the introduction of in-house additive manufacturing equipment can represent a significant resource commitment, which is why we offer LIGA* prototyping services to help develop proof-of-concept samples, along with strategic planning to maximize your return on investment if you decide to go forward with equipment purchase. Depending on your requirements, we can also provide actual production runs on an outsource basis. Please contact us to start the conversation!
* LIGA is a German acronym used to refer to the processes of lithography, electroforming, and molding use to create microstructures.
Specialty Electronics | Software | Consulting
Digital Matrix offers built-to-order application-specific power supplies (rectifiers), as well as high-performance controllers for precise voltage regulation, durability in challenging plating environments, and reliability for all levels of production.
User-friendly touch-panels or remote PC apps provide easy process management through both firmware and customized software for specific application.
The Digital Matrix engineering team has been put to work on diverse projects such environmental control systems for skyscrapers, aviation prototyping, electronic toll collection systems, and much more. Activities can include development of proof-of-concept prototypes, advanced technical research and analysis, and integration of disparate process applications. Contact us with your inquiry.
Chemicals & Accessories
In addition to providing initial chemical supplies on turn-key system installation, Digital Matrix can provide replenishment or stand-alone orders on an array of chemstries and additives for optimizing electroforming applications.
Formulations are US-made and subject to the highest quality controls in the industry. Digital Matrix is an official distributor for the DisChem family of products for electroforming and lithography. Analytical services available. Contact us with your inquiry.
Shown below are examples of our “remote” controller DMC4-PLT-RM1, the DMC4-PLT-RM1 Series Plating Rectifier/Process Controller, and DMC4-RPP Series Reverse Pulse Plating Rectifier/Process Controller. Contact us with your requirements.
