Introduction
Copper Strips and DPC/DCC strips are used in the Electrical Industries, Electroplating plants, Motors, Generators, Transformers, and Household Electrical Appliances due to its high conductivity which can not be replaced by any other non-ferrous material like copper because of good mechanical properties viz, good Malleability and formability, can be easily fabricated. Besides, it can also be easily welded and soldered.
Market Potential
With the growth of industrialization as well as technological advancement, the demand of copper products such as wire, strip, flats, both bare and covered is increasing. Based on this trend of growing demand, there is scope for setting up SSI unit, in the area.

Technical Aspects
Process of Manufacture
Copper Strips bare or covered, are basically manufactured using copper wire rod of required sizes. Wire rods are converted into strips with the help of cold rolling mills mounted with rolls of different roll pass design as per size of the final product required.
DCC/DPC Copper strips are annealed through Electrical furnace and put into DCC/DPC Machine for covering with insulating paper or cotton as per requirement.
Quality Control and Standards
Quality of copper strips covered and uncovered are maintained according to the standards laid down by Bureau of Indian Standards and as well as customers standards specifications.
