Density of current in the cadmium plating process

-----
2006

I'd like to have your consideration about the problem of the density of current in the cadmium plating process. My proposal is:
I use, together all the other parts to be processed, an copper sample having 1dm^2 of total surface placed in parallel to the other parts racked. So I place in series to the sample an ammeter. Now, if my required current density is 2-3Amp/dm^2, and I measure this value on the sample's ammeter, the game is done. in fact, I'll set the power supply of the generator until the ammeter shoew 2-3Amps.

I'm very glad for your comments.
