Copper-aluminum composite conductors combine a copper surface with an aluminum core. Compare copper fraction, cross-section, joining process and service environment. Cost and weight differences depend on composition, dimensions and purchasing conditions.
Manufactured using advanced Solid-Liquid Cast-Rolling Technology, this Copper-Aluminum Composite offers physical properties superior to traditional cladding or welding processes.
The composite process forms a copper-aluminum interface; verify interface quality with batch documentation and processing conditions.
The interface affects bonding and conductivity. Confirm layer thickness and microstructure from the specific material documentation.
Rounded edges for better fit with insulation materials, suitable for high-end busbar processing.
Process Principle: Solid-Liquid Cast Rolling Flow
Compared to traditional CCA (mechanical cladding/welding) and pure copper busbars, Solid-Liquid Cast-Rolling Cu-Al Eutectic Busbar offers significant advantages in bonding strength, processability, and cost-efficiency.
| Dimension | Pure Copper (T2/T3) | Traditional CCA (Clad/Weld) | Solid-Liquid Cast-Rolling Eutectic Busbar |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bonding Method | - | Mechanical/Weak Metallurgical | Atomic Metallurgical (Eutectic) |
| - | Low (Prone to delamination) | > 148 N/mm (Very High) | |
| Processability (Bending) | Excellent | Poor (Cracks/Peeling) | Excellent (90° No Cracks) |
| Conductivity (IACS) | ~100% | 65% - 85% | Customizable by Cu ratio |
| Density | 8.9 | ~3.5 - 4.5 | 3.94 (Lightweight) |
| Overall Cost | High | Medium | Low (40%+ savings vs Cu) |
