With good electrical conductivity,thermal conductivity, excellent plasticity,copper is widely used in the manufacture of electrical wires, cables, electric brushes, electric spark copper, and other products that require good electrical conductivity.
As the leading manufacturer of CNC machining copper parts for over 25 years, Worthy Hardware is well equipped with 35 sets CNC Machines, including 3 sets 5 axis ,4 sets 3 axis, 12 sets turning and milling compound.These machines could allow us to make prototypes, small batch and mass production parts for aluminum materials.
What is CNC Machining Copper?
Copper (pure copper, red copper) is famous for its purple-red color. See copper for various properties.Copper is industrial pure copper with a melting point of 1083°C,and a relative density of 8.9, which is five times that of magnesium. Because it has a rose red color and a purple color after an oxide film is formed on the surface, it is generally called copper. This kind of material is very soft and easy to stick to the tooling, so it is not easy to be cnc machined. It depends on the experience of the cnc machine shop production ability. Worthy Hardware produces about 25 tons copper mechanical parts. Try to send us the designs,we will not let you down!
What are the benefits of CNC Machining Copper?
1) Excellent electrical conductivity but with cheaper prices compared with gold and sliver, is popular used in the electrical industry.
2) Copper has excellent hot and cold processing properties and can be processed by various traditional pressure and processing techniques, such as deep drawing, precision stamping, spinning.
3) With copper CNC machining, precise copper parts can be produced quickly and with a high level of repeatability, ensuring each part meets strict requirements and specifications.
4) Copper is suitable for a wide array of applications such as pipes, electric cabling, circuit boards, electronics, wiring, radiators and cooling systems.
CNC Machining Copper Material
In fact, compared to brass, copper has only 20% of the machining ability of brass.It is more popular for casting, spinning and stamping process.
Copper C11000
C11000 has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and processing properties, and can be welded and fiber welded. Contains less impurities that reduce electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. A trace of oxygen has little effect on electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and processing properties, but it is easy to cause “hydrogen disease”. It is not suitable for processing (annealing) in a high temperature (such as >370°) reducing atmosphere .Welding, etc.) and use.

Customer Testimonials
In the past 25 years, our clients are all over the world, including the world’s top 500 companies such as Jabil, ABB, Medtronic and so on. Do you want to know what our customers say about us? Let’s take a look.
Justin, CEO of a lighting company
I inspected the top two pieces of all five boxes. Everything is beautiful! BEAUTIFUL! You remove so much stress from my shoulders. I know that when we pay you to manufacture a product, it will be made perfectly. The glass bead blasting and anodizing is always beautiful. I am so very happy! You make it easier for us to run our business. There is no trouble!
With most factories, I have a moment of fear before I open their boxes. Will the components be made correctly? Do they care about quality? It is often a war. And Dennis has to fight the war, treating most factories like small children!
But, not your company. You’re company is world-class. You make beautiful components!Thank you very much for your hard work. We will work together for many lifetimes!
David, General manager for a family owned business
I’ve been working with Chinese manufacturers since 2004 and had some really unfortunate partnerships until 2012 when we partnered with Worthy Hardware. At first,we only gave them small orders to test and make the start.
However,their response speed was very fast ,and their engineers help us improved our designs more simple, this helped us reduce a lot of cost.Our cooperate is more and more stable!
We trust Worthy Hardware always ,very responsible. Your guys are great! .Worthy Hardware is by far my favorite, because of the way they handle business and the quality of what they make.If you are from USA and would like to know more about Worthy Hardware,i would be very happy to be as an endorsement.
CNC Machining Copper FAQ
1.What is the best type of copper for CNC machining?
According to the 25 years for CNC Machining, we found 80% customers require C11000 as the material for their project, why? It is more cost-effective and suitable for most electrical applications.
2.Compared with brass, is copper hard to CNC machined?
Cooper is very soft and easily to adhere the tools,so it is very difficult for CNC machining.Worthy Hardware produces about 25 tons copper mechanical parts. Try to send us the designs,we will not let you down!
