Copper Tungsten Finished Parts

Overview

Copper Tungsten Finished Parts are a composite material made of tungsten and copper. Due to their excellent high-temperature resistance, arc erosion resistance, and high electrical and thermal conductivity, they are widely used in aerospace, aviation, electronics, power, and metallurgy industries, particularly in the manufacture of high-temperature components such as high-voltage switch contacts, rocket nozzle throat liners, and EDM electrodes.

Copper Tungsten Alloy Properties

• High electrical and thermal conductivity: The addition of copper significantly improves the alloy's electrical and thermal conductivity, ensuring efficient current transmission and rapid heat dissipation, making it suitable for high-frequency electronic equipment and high-temperature environments.
• High strength and wear resistance: It possesses high mechanical strength, toughness, and wear resistance, making it resistant to damage under high loads and repeated operation.
• Excellent arc erosion and ablation resistance: Tungsten's high melting point (approximately 3422°C) prevents the alloy from melting or evaporating under electric arc conditions, extending its service life, especially in welding or switching applications.
• Low coefficient of thermal expansion: The alloy has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, maintaining dimensional stability under temperature changes and reducing deformation or cracking caused by thermal stress.
• High-temperature resistance: It maintains good dimensional stability in high-temperature environments, making it suitable for harsh conditions such as aerospace and power systems.

Tungsten Copper Products Process

① Select high-purity tungsten and copper powders, and mix them according to the designed composition ratio (e.g., W70Cu30, W80Cu20, etc.).

② Use mechanical mixing (e.g., ball milling) or atomized mixing, adding a small amount of forming agent to ensure uniform dispersion of tungsten and copper powders and avoid component segregation.

③ Select the molding method according to the product shape. Plates are commonly molded by compression molding, rods are extruded or isostatically pressed, and small contacts are powder injection molded.

④ Melting and high-temperature sintering (1100-1300℃, hydrogen protection) melts the copper powder and fills the gaps in the tungsten powder, forming a dense alloy.

⑤ Perform machining operations such as turning, milling, rolling, or drilling according to customer's size requirements to meet dimensional accuracy and surface finish requirements.

⑥ Surface treatment (polishing, electroplating) and heat treatment are performed to improve performance, and quality inspection is carried out throughout the entire process.
