The annual sales volume is about 65.438+0.2 billion euros, the number of employees is about 5,600, and the product sales volume is about 450,000 metric tons.
According to the company's data, the process of copper strip products is not the current popular continuous casting and rolling process, but the semi-continuous casting-hot rolling cogging method, that is, the copper raw material is melted into 20 tons of slab, and then the slab is heated to 600- 1000℃ for hot rolling, and the thickness of the hot rolled copper plate is 10- 15mm, and then the cold rolling and annealing processes are carried out. The company's copper strip products are mainly used in lead frame industry, communication and automobile industry, ship industry and transformer industry.
The process of copper tube products adopts extrusion method, which is an advanced technology for copper tube production in the world at present, and its final product performance is better than that produced by rolling method. According to the company's data, the first step of copper tube production is to heat the copper ingot to 950℃, extrude it, then carry out the subsequent drawing process, further process it according to the customer's requirements after drawing, and finally cut or coil it into finished products. The company's copper products are mainly used in air conditioning and refrigeration industry, heat exchange tubes and water pipes.
Copper and copper alloy bars are mainly produced by continuous casting or extrusion. Firstly, the copper ingot is heated to 600- 1000℃ to facilitate the subsequent ingot casting, and then different processes are selected for production according to different requirements of customers.
