Copper Rod Continuous Casting
and Rolling Line
The UL+Z series copper rod continuous casting and rolling production line is designed for manufacturing high-quality copper rods from electrolytic copper (ETP) or scrap copper (FRHC).
This production line integrates melting, casting and rolling processes into one continuous system, delivering high efficiency, stable performance and excellent mechanical properties. It is widely used in wire and cable industries and downstream copper processing applications.
Key Features
• The production line can be equipped with different types of copper furnaces according to raw materials (electrolytic copper or scrap copper), enabling production of ETP copper rod and FRHC copper rod.
• The continuous rolling mill features active feeding and rod stacking parking functions.
• The unique rolling method combining two-roller and three-roller structures ensures excellent mechanical properties of the rod and improves wire drawing quality.
Equipment Composition
The production line is mainly composed of:
• Vertical furnace and holding furnace (for electrolytic copper) or reverberatory furnace (for scrap copper)
• Five-wheel integral continuous casting machine
• Rolling shear
• Straightening machine
• Roughing machine
• Continuous rolling mill
• Lubrication system
• Cooling and reduction device
• Rod collection device
• Electrical control system
