Material

Copper

Copper is a base metal with very high electrical and thermal conductivity, good ductility, and naturally antimicrobial surfaces, suited to heat-management parts, coils, and electrical components.

Manufacturing processes

SLM / DMLSLost Wax Casting 

About

Copper is a base metal prized for its electrical and thermal conductivity; it is ductile for pure copper. Clean, uncoated copper surfaces are also naturally antimicrobial, as a supplement to normal cleaning.

Copper is well suited to heat-management parts, coils and windings, and electrical components.
