Advantages of copper continuous casting2025-02-05 15:34:56

Copper continuous casting and extrusion production line has many significant advantages, mainly reflected in production efficiency, product quality, cost control and process flexibility, the following is a specific introduction:

Productivity improvement

Process integration: The traditional copper processing line is usually divided into three independent processes: continuous casting, heating and extrusion, and the copper continuous casting and extrusion line integrates these processes together to achieve continuous production of the whole process. This integrated design significantly reduces intermediate links and waiting times in the production process, significantly improving production efficiency.

Faster production: Thanks to continuous production, the copper continuous casting and extrusion line can produce at a higher speed and produce more products per unit time. For example, Wuhan Xiongchi Electromechanical Equipment Co., LTD., through the development of copper continuous casting and extrusion production line, achieved a technological breakthrough in the continuous pouring of 1 ton of liquid copper under vacuum state, and the production efficiency was increased by 3 times.

Product quality improvement

Uniform microstructure and properties: Continuous extrusion technology uses the heat generated by friction to heat up, and the blank is stressed evenly during the extrusion process, which can form a fine and uniform recrystallization structure. This uniform structure makes the mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of the product more stable and superior.

Good quality consistency: Due to the continuity and high degree of automation of the production process, the copper continuous casting and extrusion production line can ensure the consistency of product quality. This helps to reduce product defects caused by process fluctuations and improve the product qualification rate.

Cost reduction

The energy saving effect is significant: traditional copper processing methods require the billet to be heated, while copper continuous casting and extrusion lines use the heat generated by friction to extrude, without additional heating equipment. This not only saves a lot of energy consumption, but also reduces production costs.

High material utilization rate: The production line adopts continuous casting and rolling wire rod as raw material, without extrusion and compression, and the material utilization rate is high, generally up to 95%. Compared with traditional methods, this greatly reduces the waste of raw materials and reduces the cost of materials.

Process reduction: Due to process integration, the copper continuous casting and extrusion production line omits many intermediate processes in the traditional process, such as heating, hot rolling, milling, etc. This not only reduces equipment investment and maintenance costs, but also reduces labor costs.

Strong process flexibility

Can produce a variety of products: copper continuous casting and extrusion production line can produce a variety of specifications and shapes of copper products, such as copper pipe, copper rod, copper bar, copper flat wire. By adjusting the mold and process parameters, you can flexibly switch the production of different products to meet the diversified market demand.

Suitable for multi-variety and small-batch production: The production line is not only suitable for mass production, but also suitable for small-batch and multi-variety production mode. This enables companies to respond quickly to market changes and meet the individual needs of customers.

Other advantages

It can produce ultra-long products: the length of copper produced by traditional processing methods is generally not more than 30-50 meters, and the length of copper produced by copper continuous casting and extrusion production line can be between thousands of meters or even tens of thousands of meters. This ultra-long product is more convenient in transportation and use, reduces the number of joints, and improves the overall performance of the product.

Less equipment investment: Compared with the traditional multi-process production line, the equipment investment of copper continuous casting and extrusion production line is relatively less. This allows companies to achieve large-scale production at a lower cost when entering the copper processing field
