PlatingLog replaces paper logbooks, spreadsheets and guesswork with a digital system that monitors your tanks, schedules your lab work, and keeps every process audit-ready.
Most plating shops run on paper binders and shared Excel files. That works — until a key employee is out, an auditor arrives, or a batch ships with unknown chemistry history.
Analysis logs get wet, torn, or misfiled. Reconstructing a batch's chemistry history for an audit becomes hours of manual work.
Filter changes, carbon treatments, and equipment calibrations get skipped when the reminder is a sticky note on a whiteboard.
Without real-time sensor data, an out-of-range bath can run for hours. Chemistry excursions become yield losses and customer escapes.
The operator who knows when Copper "smells off" retires. Everything they carried in their head walks out the door with them.
Built specifically for metal finishing — not adapted from generic manufacturing software. No modules you'll never use.
Connect ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or PLC devices to push real-time pH, temperature, concentration, and flow readings directly into each tank's record.
Schedule titrations, log results, and automatically flag out-of-spec readings. OOS analyses require a documented corrective cause before proceeding.
Maintenance tasks trigger on elapsed time, accumulated throughput (SQF), calendar date, or any combination. Never miss a filter change again.
Digital travelers follow each job through your line — from pre-clean to final rinse. Every step signed off, timestamped, and retrievable in seconds.
Weekly chemistry reports, compliance percentages, excursion counts, and trend charts. Ready to export for your customer or a Nadcap auditor.
Operators see only their line. Lab techs log analyses. Engineers configure limits. Managers review reports. Each role sees exactly what they need.
Each sensor gets a unique write key. Your device POSTs a reading with that key — no login, no OAuth, no complexity. The reading lands in PlatingLog in milliseconds.
Works with any device that can make an HTTP request: ESP32, Raspberry Pi, Siemens PLC, Allen-Bradley, custom PCB.
// Configured in PlatingLog Setup → Sensor const char* HOST = "http://platinglog.mycompany.com"; const char* KEY = "aBcD1234...writeKey"; void sendReading(float value) { HTTPClient http; http.begin(String(HOST) + "/api/ingest/sensor"); http.addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json"); String body = "{\\"key\\":" + "\\"" + String(KEY) + "\\" + ",\\"value\\":" + String(value, 3) + "}"; int code = http.POST(body); // → 201 OK http.end(); }
PlatingLog runs on your own server — you own the data. Annual license covers updates, support, and any new features released during the period.
We'll set up a live demo with your actual process chemistry and walk through every module — typically 45 minutes.
