Kuhikuhi ka Etep nameplate i nā kiʻi nameplate metala a ʻaʻole like ka ʻaoʻao a me ke ʻano o ka metala i kahi ala like, a ma ke ala o ke kaha ʻana. a me ka ʻōlelo, i ʻike ʻia ma ke ʻano ʻo Yangwen etching; Hiki iā ia ke mālama i ka ʻili o ka substrate kumu, i kahakaha ʻia ai ka ʻaoʻao a me ka huaʻōlelo i kahi concave, i ʻike ʻia ʻo Yin etching.
He kiʻi paʻa a me ka huaʻōlelo nā Etched nameplates, hoʻohana pinepine ʻia no nā hōʻailona pono mīkini a me kekahi o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke ʻano ʻoʻoleʻa a pono e hana ʻia no nā ʻōuli paʻa.
ʻO ka electroforming ka mea like me ka electroplating. ʻO ka uila uila kahi ʻenehana e hoʻopaʻa i ka pale o ka hoʻonaninani a me ka uhi metala hana ma ka mea hana, ʻoiai electrocasting kahi ʻenehana e hoʻopaʻa i ka hana hou ʻana o ka papa metala e ka electrodeposition. I waena o lākou, pono ka electroplating maikaʻi i waena o ka plating ka papa a me ka ʻōpū, ʻoiai ke manaʻo nei ka electroplating hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale maʻalahi ʻia ka papa metala i waiho ʻia mai ka matrix matrix. ʻOi aku ka mānoanoa o ka papa metala electroformed ma mua o ka electrodeposited layer a hiki ke ʻoki loa ʻia mai ka matrix o ka ʻano makua e loaʻa ai ka huahana i makemake ʻia. .
