ENHANCED COPPER-BASED CAST PRODUCTS
It’s a huge advantage for an engineering company to also be producing its own metal. The enhanced control as well as streamlined and highly accurate documentation packs give clients real peace of mind. The secret to making good metal is absolute attention to detail and control over many, often opposing, variables has enabled Copper Alloys Ltd to successfully extend its range of products and processes so that it can become a single source for complex ranges of materials, components and equipment.

SPECIALITY ALLOYS
Copper Alloys was founded within a sandcasting organisation, and has continued to produce some of the most complex cast copper-based alloys available. As a source of in-feed material to the forging process it also ensures production of cost-effective forgings with optimal properties and enhanced quality control.
Copper Alloys can trace its roots to the first people ever to cast nickel-aluminium bronze over a century ago, and as engineers move away from castings to forgings, Copper Alloys is now casting a range of alloys including:
- Nickel-Aluminium Bronze
- Leaded Bronze
- Lead-free Bearing Bronze
- Customer-specific alloys
- Machined cast components
- Shapes produced to print
- Long products in a range of sections
- Up to 800mm dia solids and large slabs readily available
The team of leading metallurgists that work at Copper Alloys are regularly working on new alloys that are tailored to customer’s specific needs. If you would like to explore the possibility of generating performance advantage from the metals you use, please contact the team on the details above now.
ENHANCED PROPERTIES AND HOMOGENEOUS GRAIN STRUCTURE
It is well known that cast material can present a number of problems for engineers and supply chains, especially when compared with forgings which take a casting and work the metal in such a way that it physically proves the integrity of the metal. However Copper Alloys has developed a range of proprietary process technology that enables surprisingly high cast material to be produced:
- Grain refining techniques
- Heat treatment processes
- Cooling and chemistry control
One or a combination of the above makes the cast material produced at Copper Alloys to perform better than other sources.
Aerospace approved manufacturing to ISO 9001:2000 upgraded to AS9100 Rev. D guarantee the highest level of control and traceability, each individual piece of cast product is stamped with its unique identification code which is also referenced on the material certification.
Copper Alloys are specialists in sawing, with a large cutting capacity and the ability to saw circles up to 800mm diameter and rectangles up to 800mm x 800mm.
The Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) experts at Copper Alloys are specialists in crack and defect detection to help ensure material is high quality before it feeds into the machining process.
