Power generation

Swissmetal supplies single- and double-hole hollow conductors made of copper as well as slot-wedges made of highstrength copper alloys for generator rotors.

Electric motors

Swissmetal’s flexibility opens the way to the production of a wide range of copper profiles for commutator bars. These are used in industrial DC motors or in traction motors.

Welding technology

Wire stock for brazing and welding wire and copper-chromium-zirconium rods for spot welding robots in the automotive industry bear testimony to Swissmetal’s metallurgical competence.

Low-voltage applications

Solid and hollow brass profiles possess the perfect combination of mechanical properties and suitable forms (e.g. terminals for electrical equipment manufacturing).

Power distribution

Close collaboration at every phase of the development process results in tailormade profiles for specific customer needs (e.g. copper profiles for switch boards in medium- and high-voltage applications).

Railway technology

Swissmetal’s special alloys unite good mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and suitable forms. These alloys a are especially adapted to overhead catenary construction.

Induction furnaces

Swissmetal is achieving major success in the manufacturing of semi-finished products for use in induction furnaces. The hollow profiles for induction coils are made of oxygen-free copper.

Super conductors

Superconductor support profiles made of ultra-pure copper alloys and manufactured with extreme precision are essential for the manufacture of superconducting magnets. They are used primarily in medical applications (MRI) and nuclear technology.

EDM Wire

Busch-Jaeger master alloys for sparkling machining wire are known for their homogeneous quality. Due to the use of pure raw materials and special drawing processes, they promise customers the best possible end-results for EDM products.
