- 10. The rotor of claim 8, wherein said second geometry comprises a raised area along the surface of said substrate.
- 11. A composite electrolessly plated open-end combing roll, said combing roll comprising a substrate having finely divided insoluble particulate matter dispersed within a metallic coating, said plated combing roll having a differential percent of particulate matter electrolessly codeposited at different locations having different constructions along the surface of the substrate of said combing roll, said differential percent density being achieved through an increased rotational speed of the substrate during the plating process in comparison to a slower rotational speed necessary for a more uniform electroless codeposition of particulate matter across the surface of the substrate.
- 12. The combing roll of claim 11, wherein said combing roll has a symmetrical axis about which said combing roll is rotated.
- 13. The combing roll of claim 11, wherein said substrate has a first geometry along one portion of said surface and a second geometry along another portion of said surface different from said first geometry, wherein the density of said particulate matter within said coating on said surface of said first geometry is different from the density of said particulate matter within said coating on the surface of said second geometry.
- 14. The combing roll of claim 13, wherein said first geometry comprises a depressed area along the surface of said substrate.
- 15. The combing roll of claim 13, wherein said second geometry comprises a raised area along the surface of said substrate.
- 16. A composite electrolessly plated article of generally cylindrical shape having a single axis of symmetry, said article comprising a substrate having finely divided insoluble particulate matter dispersed within a metallic coating electrolessly plated thereon, said plated article having a differential percent of particulate matter codeposited at different locations along the surface of the substrate of said article, said substrate having a first geometry of at least one depression along one portion of said surface and a second geometry of at least one raised area along another portion of said surface different from said first geometry, wherein the density of said particulate matter within said coating on said surface of said first geometry is different from the density of said particulate matter within said coating on the surface of said second geometry, said differential percent density being achieved through an increased rotational speed of the substrate during the plating process in comparison to a slower rotational speed necessary for a more uniform electroless codeposition of particulate matter across the surface of the substrate.
- 17. The article of claim 16, wherein said article comprises an open-end spinning rotor.
- 18. The article of claim 16, wherein said article comprises an open-end combing roll.
