Full Two-Roller Copper Rod Continuous Casting and Rolling Line (20T/H) - Made by Top China Suppliers and Factory
Prospect
Under the situation of scarce copper resources and increasing stringent environmental protection requirements, most countries recycle and reuse scrap copper to save copper resources and protect the global environment.
Most countries in the world no longer adopt traditional boat-shaped copper ingots, but instead adopt Continuous Casting and Rolling (CCR) production processes.
Scrap copper is melted into recycled copper ingots through slag removal and crushing. Copper ingots are then processed to produce various copper products which meet the requirements. The continuous casting and rolling process can directly produce bright and low-oxygen copper rods that meet the requirements of wires and cables. Compared with copper ingot recycling, the direct recovery and reuse of scrap copper not only reduces the processing steps and improves the recovery rate of scrap copper, but also reduces the production cost by about 5%.
The continuous casting and rolling production line provided by HONOR METAL can use scrap copper or electrolytic copper plates as raw material, which are melted into liquid copper in a melting furnace. The liquid copper is then transferred through the launder and cast into copper slabs in a continuous casting machine. The copper slabs are subsequently rolled and sheared, straightened and scraped, and roughened in a hot continuous rolling mill to produce bright, low-oxygen copper rods.
This technology cleverly combines the two processes of casting and rolling. Compared with the traditional process that casting copper slabs first and then heating them in a heating furnace and rolling, it has advantages of simplifying the process, improving the working conditions, increasing the metal yield, saving energy, improving the quality of continuous casting ingots, and facilitating the realization of mechanization and automation.
In the 21st century, the wire and cable industry has developed rapidly around the world. In China, copper for the wire and cable industry is growing at an annual rate of about 10%. With the increase of the demand for wires and cables, the demand for raw materials for copper rods will increase. Continuous casting and rolling, the main manufacturing method of copper rods, will surely be more widely used in the future. Recycling copper rods from scrap copper will also usher in the spring of industry development.
We make technological innovation on the basis of fully absorbing and digesting advanced production technology of similar international equipment from United States, Germany, Italy, etc. Our equipment has characteristics of simple structure, convenient operation, high production efficiency, high yield, low failure rate, low energy consumption, excellent copper rod quality and so on.

Professional Technical Team
We can provide our customers with the most professional and comprehensive technical support with rich experience and a professional technical team.
In addition to providing customers with a full set of detailed drawings, technical documents and other information, we also provide a professional technical team to the customer site for installation and commissioning, and provide customers with face-to-face technical guidance.
Scrap copper recycling, casting and rolling line requires not only a professional continuous casting and rolling production line, but also a mature production process. Because of the difficulty and key point of scrap copper recycling, casting and rolling line lies in the production process. Only a complete and mature production process can produce the low-oxygen copper rods that meet the standard requirements with bright appearance and stable diameter. Our technical team can provide two to three years of on-site technical guidance in the customer's factory until our customers have mastered a professional level of copper rod continuous casting and rolling production process.
Choosing our equipment means choosing a strong and professional technical team, first-class quality and perfect after-sales guarantee.

Equipment Components & Specifications
Reverberatory Furnace
Waste copper rectangular fixed-type reverberatory furnace is a special smelting equipment that uses liquefied petroleum gas, heavy oil or natural gas as fuel and scrap copper as raw material to complete melting, oxidation (slagging), reduction and other smelting processes.
The reverberatory furnace is mainly composed of steel structure, refractory material, furnace door and transmission equipment, gas burner, air supply system and electronic control system.
The reverberatory furnace provided by us has advantages of simple structure, good adaptability to raw materials and fuels, long furnace life, convenient operation, easy control, high operation rate, suitable for large, medium and small scale production, and less water consumption in production and so on.
According to customer requirements, the capacity of the reverberatory furnace can be designed such as 40t, 60t, 100t, etc.
Wheel Casting Machine
The liquid copper which are refined by the reverberatory furnace cast in the crystallization wheel cavity of the casting machine through launder and pouring pot. After water cooling, the liquid copper will rapidly condensed and solidified into the casting rod ingot.
