In which industries are copper forgings widely used?

Copper forgings are widely used in many industries because of their good mechanical properties and electrical conductivity. Here are some common industries:

Power industry: Copper forgings are widely used in power equipment, transmission lines and electrical connectors. Due to copper’s high electrical conductivity and low resistivity, copper forgings can effectively conduct current while having good heat and corrosion resistance.

Automotive industry: Copper forgings are used in the automotive industry to manufacture automotive engines, drivetrains and body parts. Copper forgings have excellent strength and wear resistance, can withstand high temperature and high pressure environments, and have good impact energy absorption properties.

Aerospace industry: The requirements for materials in the aerospace field are very strict, and copper forgings are widely used in the manufacturing of aerospace components because of their high strength, excellent corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity. Copper forgings can be used to make key components such as turbine engine blades and aerospace instrument housings.

Petrochemical industry: Copper forgings are used in the petrochemical industry to manufacture chemical equipment and pipeline connectors. Copper forgings can withstand high temperature and pressure environments, with excellent corrosion resistance and sealing properties.

Manufacturing: Copper forgings are also widely used in the general manufacturing industry, such as manufacturing machinery and equipment, tools, instruments, bearings, etc. Copper forgings are commonly used to manufacture high-strength, high-precision and vital parts to meet a variety of industrial needs.

It is necessary to select the appropriate copper forging materials and processes according to the specific application scenarios and requirements to ensure its performance and reliability.
