CONSTITUTION:An anode 3 and a cathode 4 are provided in a plating tank 5, and a material 7 to be plated is arranged with the surface matched with the cathode 4 surface. A couple of agitating knives 2 having an almost triangular section having <=20mm thickness and with the vertex made into a sphere of >=10mm radius are furnished close to the material 7 with the vertices opposed to each other (<=30mm away from each other), and the plating tank 5 is filled with a plating soln. 6. Under such conditions, the knives 2 are reciprocated to the left and right to agitate the plating soln. 6, and a current is applied between the anode 3 and cathode 4 to plate the material. Consequently, Fe is uniformly distributed on the material 7, and a nickel-iron plating is formed with the variance of characteristics reduced.
