The technology is used in the plating process for forming copper, nickel, and other metal coatings on substrates in the process of manufacturing electronic parts.

Key Points: 
  • The technology is used in the plating process for forming copper, nickel, and other metal coatings on substrates in the process of manufacturing electronic parts.
  • This new stamping-type plating machine eliminates the need of a dipping process where parts to be plated are completely immersed in multiple baths of plating solution, which is required in the most common plating process at present.
  • As a result, waste solution can be dramatically reduced to about one-thirtieth and CO2 emissions to about one-third, which contributes to a significant reduction in environmental impact.
  • Over the next two to three years, Toyota hopes to sell the stamping-type plating machine for use by a number of companies as a test machine for verification and evaluation purposes.

Fortunately, an inventor from Pass Christian, Miss., had thought of better way to serve snack dip.

Key Points: 
  • Fortunately, an inventor from Pass Christian, Miss., had thought of better way to serve snack dip.
  • He developed DIP DABS to enable user to quickly and neatly dispense an individual serving of snack dip onto chips and other foods.
  • As such, it serves as a neater and more sanitary alternative to traditional dip packaging options.
  • Thus, it reduces the spread of germs from double-dipping into a common dip container.
