    The firm Tanaka Denshi Kogyo, of the Tanaka Kikinzoku Group, has announced it is to expand its output of copper bonding wire to 20 million metres per month, a five-fold increase. The increase will come from an additional production line at the firm's Singapore plant which produces copper bonding wire and from establishing a new production line at the Saga plant in Japan. The company forecasts that the global bonding wire market could double between 2008 and 2010. Copper bonding wire demand could also strengthen as it is a substitute for gold bonding wire, and therefore will benefit whilst the gold price remain high. Tanaka Denshi Kogyo has also recently begun the sale of a new copper bonding wire, TCA1. The firm said that TCA1 is copper wire with a 99.99% purity and a diameter of between 20-70 micrometres. It's price is around a third that of gold bonding wire.

    SureWest had said it was contemplating such services when the company began offering broadband via bonded ADSL2+ in its incumbent territory last fall, including 10-megabit-per-second services. The company already offers IPTV through its fiber-to-the-premises network, but its bonded ADSL2+ customers have so far only had access to SureWest's voice and data services. (The company has offered IPTV over copper on a very limited basis even before it began line bonding. It offers IPTV over copper to about 2500 customers today, mostly to those with short loops and modest standard-definition video needs.) The new copper-based IPTV services, which will be available to 15,000 homes in December and another 10,000 by next June, are enabled in part by the company's recent switch from Minerva middleware to Microsoft's Mediaroom and by its use of MPEG-4 encoding for video compression.

  • A bare copper equipment grounding conductor should not be placed in an aluminum cable tray due to the potential for electrolytic corrosion of the aluminum cable tray in a moist environment. For such installations, it is best to use an insulated conductor and to remove the insulation where bonding connections are made to the cable tray, raceways, equipment enclosures, etc. with tin or zinc plated connectors.

China - Copper imports defy waning consumption, high stocks and negative arbitrage - 1 views

    Despite the small drop in March copper imports, overall imports of copper to China remain at a high level. This may seem somewhat surprising in the light of the deeply unfavourable arbitrage, a deteriorating short-term consumption outlook and high inventory levels. CRU suggests that much of the material is imported by traders into bonded warehouses, who may be using copper as a financing mechanism to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities in other markets, such as in the RMB and interest rates. Bonded warehouses allow traders to easily re-export material out of China without incurring major costs, such as VAT. This allows them to take swift aversive action in case the outlook on Chinese consumption weakens further, while benefitting from the export-friendly arbitrage window. The slower growth in scrap imports is more reflective of the negative arbitrage and the temporary easing of the concentrates market following outages at PASAR's Leyte smelter and PPC's Saganoseki smelter.

    The Boards of Rio Tinto plc and Rio Tinto Limited (together "Rio Tinto") announce today that they are unanimously recommending to shareholders a transaction with Aluminium Corporation of China ("Chinalco"), a leading Chinese diversified resources company. The transaction will forge a pioneering strategic partnership through the creation of joint ventures in aluminium, copper, and iron ore as well as the issue of convertible bonds to Chinalco, which would, if converted, allow Chinalco to increase its existing shareholding in Rio Tinto.

    Friday, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) amended an obscure clean water regulation that restricted use of aluminum in automobiles because of a potentially harmful byproduct created in the manufacturing process. Car makers treat aluminum to increase protection from corrosion in multiple ways, but the cheapest is an adhesive bonding process that uses zinc phosphate.

2012 demand in China - Luvata - 0 views

trends Copper China Luvata

shared by Colin Bennett on 15 Oct 12 - No Cached
  • Luvata has seen a contraction in demand for copper products in China so far in 2012, senior vp and chief procurement officer Bob Kickham told Metal Bulletin on Monday October 8. “We planned for growth but we saw some contraction, and it’s the first year in as many as I can remember where that’s happened,” he said. The outright contraction in sales volumes runs counter to prevailing analysis indicating that China’s end-use demand grew in 2012, albeit at a slower pace than in previous years. China’s apparent usage – not taking into account unreported changes in inventories held by consumers, producers, traders or the State Reserve Bureau – grew by 27% in the six months to July, driven by an 80% increase in net imports, according to the International Copper Study Group (ICSG). But as the ICSG pointed out, anecdotal evidence suggests that bonded stocks in Chinese warehouses have surged during the same period as demand has failed to keep pace with the stronger imports.“I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see that warehouse stocks in China are at the 650,000-700,000-tonne...

Copper China trends Imports Demand

    According to data from Chinese Customs, Chinese final imports of refined copper totalled 238,828t in December, a fall of 4 7% m-o-m from November, and the second lowest reading of 2012. Despite this, full-year imports of refined copper in 2012 surged to their highest year on record, at 3.4Mt, as a result of the large volumes of copper being imported on long term contracts in 2012. While the pickup in imports of refined copper was strong in 2012, demand from downstream users did not match the pickup in imports. According to a report from Reuters, this has resulted in large amounts of cathode sitting in bonded warehouses rather than being absorbed by the domestic market.

It was reported that traders turned to material in bonded warehouses to satisfy local demand. The figure was far lower than earlier expectations and reversed December's rise, which amounted to 27% m-o-m.

    Chinese imports of copper and copper semis contracted by 36% m-o-m to 235,500t in February 2011, according to customs statistics. The figure was also down by 27% from the same period a year ago. It was reported that utilisation rates of copper semis makers declined after the Chinese New Year, and therefore copper consumption fell. In addition, some semis fabricators had built stock before the festive season, which impacted imports in February. On anticipation of surging copper prices, imports were very strong in January and that led to high inventory levels in Shanghai bonded warehouses.

  • Mr Sharrock says bonded internet connections are not yet available anywhere, but are "right on the edge" of becoming commercial. Customers would need a special broadband modem, capable of splitting and integrating transmissions over two lines. "The future is fibre," he says, but techniques to squeeze more out of copper lines would help the quarter of households that won't benefit from the Government's $1.5 billion ultrafast broadband initiative.
