ABSTRACT:
A metal surface such as an endless strip of stainless steel is masked with a plating resist, leaving exposed areas to form a desired circuit pattern. The circuit pattern comprising a high density major layer and a roughened surface layer is formed by copper electroplating on the masked metal surface as same is made cathodic in a copper sulfate bath and successively held opposite to first and second insoluble anodes therein. In order to realize a high copper deposition rate, the electrolyte is caused to flow turbulently at an elevated temperature through the spacings between the metal surface and the first and second anodes. The completed circuit pattern has its roughened surface layer bonded to an adhesive-coated strip of insulating base and is separated from the metal surface. If desired, an adhesive-coated strip of overlay may then be bonded to the circuit pattern on the insulating base strip. The complete process can be automated.
