Aurubis BARS&PROFILES
Aurubis BARS & PROFILES provides copper solutions for electrical power systems as well as generators, substations, distribution systems, switchgear, and conductor systems. We provide copper products for medical systems and different areas of research that use electricity to create magnetic fields. Other applications include AC and DC motors as well as induction furnaces in which metals are heated for smelting.
Basis for sophisticated applications
Aurubis FOXROD copper rod from our own production is used as a preliminary product for Aurubis BARS&PROFILES. This rod is processed into bars and profiles with the help of a continuous extrusion process.
The products have excellent properties for applications in a variety of sectors. These properties include high electrical conductivity and high copper content of at least 99.9 %. Our copper profiles also feature smooth surfaces and the tightest of tolerances. The profiles can be processed by bending and coating.
Extrusion tools give each bar and profile its shape. Because our tools are produced in-house, throughput times can be kept very short from the first drawing to the manufactured profile, even with new profiles. Complex profiles with maximum cross-sections up to 2000 mm2.
