Abstract

A plating machine for plating a film carrier tape for mounting electronic parts includes a plating tank for plating wiring patterns of a film carrier tape and also has a bubble adhesion prevention means that is position adjustable with respect to the surface of a plating solution contained in the plating tank. The process for producing film carrier tapes for mounting electronic parts comprises partially immersing a film carrier tape in a plating solution contained in a plating tank and selectively plating wiring patterns formed in the immersed area while adsorbing bubbles generated in the plating solution to a bubble adhesion prevention means arranged at the surface of the plating solution.
