COOPPER MACHINING

Copper is a very difficult metal to machine and requires specialized process knowledge for manufacturing. Copper alloys are often used in place of pure copper to improve machinability, especially when performing more intricate custom work. As such, specialized knowledge and expertise is necessary when machining copper on 5 axis equipment. Completed operations include milling, slotting, drilling, tapping, counterboring, chamfering, threading, knurling, brazing, grooving, trimming, and nickel plating.

Excellent thermal and electrical conductivity Copper offers excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, it's often used for busbars, wire connectors, and other electrical applications. Some engineering applications for machined copper parts include: valves, hydraulic tubing, radiators, and much more. Also, copper machining is suitable for electrical applications because of copper's electrical conductivity property. Machining copper for electrical applications is used mostly in the automotive industry for radiators, cooling systems, and even heat exchangers. Furthermore, there are also environmental applications that require copper machining products including coastal power systems and plumbing systems!
