Upward vertical machine casts O2-free copper rod
To produce the highest quality oxygen-free copper wire rod in a range of sizes from 8.0mm to 22mm diameter, a Vietnamese company has installed an automated upward vertical casting machine.
The Rautomead continuous casting machine will produce oxygen-free copper rod of 16mm to 20mm diameter from a grade A cathode feedstock.
The cast rod will then form the feedstock for the Conformä continuous extrusion machine for production of fine grain, fully soft busbar sections of 200 sq.
mm to 1800 sq.
mm.
Initial output capacity of the plant will be 5,000 tonnes per year with significant scope for future expansion.
The combination of Rautomeads continuous casting technology and the Conformä continuous extrusion machine makes an elegant combination of two modern processes to produce a finished busbar product, significantly truncating the traditional capital-intensive process route of billet basting and extrusion or rolling and annealing.
