...G.K.K. Poon Sequential application of fractional factorial and response surface designs in the regression modelling and optimisation of a multi‐parameter type manufacturing process is presented. In particular, the coating thickness variation of an acid copper plating process was minimised with high...

... on to a highly polished drum, Figure 1 . The resulting foil has a shiny drum side (Figure 2 (a)) and an inherently rough nodular matte side (electrolyte side). The matter side of standard foil is then treated with an additional copper plating step to increase the surface area and a subsequent layer of zinc...
