Copper Wire Manufacturing Process


Copper wire is the most preferable and recommended material for several critical industries such as electrical, manufacturing, construction etc. There are several reasons for this inclination towards copper wire: the most important being that copper has comparatively high electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, making the flow of electric current and heat easy and smooth. This creates a favourable condition for these industries, thereby maximizing productivity and results. 

There are several steps involved in the manufacturing of copper wire. 
 
First step: In the first step, the raw copper is mined and crushed so as to make it compatible for manufacturing as wire.

Second Step: In the second step, the crushed copper ore is grinded and processed in giant machines, which converts it into fine power. There are cylindrical and rotational machines which performs this action.

Third Step: Once the power has been formed, it is concentrated so as to remove the waste slag. The oxide which is formed is then leached in weak acid solution, thereby creating a weak copper sulphate solution.

Fourth Step: In this process, electrolytic process is being used to treat this weak solution. This is called electro winning. 

Fifth Step: This process is known as smelting. Thermal heat and chemicals are used to change the oxidation state of the copper oxide solution. This results in 99% pure copper being formulated. 

Sixth Step: In this step, the copper ions are electrolytically processed, wherein they are transferred from anodes to thin sheets of copper called started sheets. Once the cathodes are formed, these are transferred to wire rods. 

Seventh Step: In the last step, these rods are made to pass through the drawing die, which elongates them and is converted into thin shreds of wire, which are again chemically processed to draw out required copper wire of specific diameters. 

If you are searching for world class copper wires, then you have arrived at the right destination. For more details related to copper wires and other products, you can directly visit our website at RajasthanElectric.com.

  1. Copper wire is priceless. Its making process is so interesting. You can see it on above where every step described so easily. We have to be careful when we make it because you can injured at the making time of it.

  5. The Canton Fair (China Import and Export Fair) is especially good for discovering potential suppliers. Talk to as many people as possible when you visit there and you will typically find multiple sources. Many buyers go to the Canton Fair and then visit the factories of the suppliers that interest them. alibaba com pakistan islamabad
