Machining of copper alloys profiles

An expertise for copper, brass and high performance alloys

Palumbo Industries produces precision components from copper alloy profilescopper, brass, and specific alloys — intended for applications where electrical conductivity, mechanical reliability, and particulate cleanliness are essential.
We machine grades such as Cu, C11000 H04, TeCu, and C14500 using transfer machines and automated machining centers, ensuring stable geometries, clean burr-free cuts, and consistent quality in high-volume production.
To optimize the electrical performance of components, we apply surface treatments such as:

  • silver plating (improvement of conductivity)
  • des finitions contrôlées pour réduire l’oxydation et assurer la stabilité dans le temps

Applications of machining of copper alloys

  • Inserts and plugs for charging systems
  • Copper profiles for energy distribution
  • Low and high voltage connectons for aeronautics
  • Precision components for electrical sub-assemblies
Applications

Key advantages of copper alloys machining

  • Best electrical conductivity
  • Clear and burr-free cuts
  • High performance silver plating
  • Constant mechanical reliability over large series

A strict quality control of copper alloy machining

Electrical, dimensional and visual inspections, for a comprehensive reliability

Copper and brass parts require specific inspections to ensure their performance.

At Palumbo Industries, every component undergoes dedicated controls :

  • periodic dimensional measurements on the production line
  • automatic camera inspection
  • eddy currant inspection to control defects of the material
  • reinforced visual inspections to ensure a perfect cleanliness
  • 100 % automated final inspection

These controls guarantee the electrical reliability, the geometrical compliance and the traceability.
