The invention relates to the technical field of electroplating, and particularly discloses a fabric-based soft material horizontal electroplating production line. The fabric-based soft material horizontal electroplating production line comprises a frame body, a material releasing mechanism, a material collecting mechanism and an electroplating mechanism, the material releasing mechanism, the material collecting mechanism and the electroplating mechanism are mounted on the frame body; the electroplating mechanism is located between the material releasing mechanism and the material collecting mechanism; the material releasing mechanism, the material collecting mechanism and the electroplating mechanism are distributed linearly; a material treated by the electroplating mechanism is located ina reference plane; and the reference plane is parallel to a horizontal plane. During actual use, a to-be-electroplated material is arranged on the material releasing mechanism, the material releasingmechanism automatically releases the material, the electroplating mechanism automatically electroplates the material released by the material releasing mechanism, and the material collecting mechanism automatically collects the material electroplated by the electroplating mechanism. In the material electroplating process, the influence on the material movement stabilization by resistance generated due to material climbing is reduced substantially, the problem that the material travelling speed is reduced due to the fact that the material moves forwards in a curved path can be solved, and thestability of the material electroplating quality and the electroplating efficiency are improved.
