It was reported that China's Amer International expects to complete construction of its new 250,000t/y copper rod production line, located in its Chaohu City facility in Anhui Province, by year-end. The expansion project will bring Amer's production capacity to 500,000t/y and its total copper rod production is anticipated to reach 200,000t in 2011. A spokesperson for the company said that it will manufacture rod for both domestic and foreign export markets. In addition, Amer also intends to source copper cathode for rod-processing from within China and also overseas. Total investment for the project amounted to RMB2.5B.

Southwire, the US-based aluminium and copper cablemaker, has said that while the use of copper in most electrical applications is unlikely to change, some manufacturers are likely to move toward the use of aluminium wire. The auto industry is increasingly using aluminium wire for traditional copper applications. This is occurring most predominantly outside of the US, however domestic autos companies have also been using aluminium wire for battery cable and aluminium wire harnesses for lights. Southwire stated that for most electrical applications copper usage will remain dominant because of its overall reliability.

Substitution of aluminum alloy for copper might open a new era for cable - 2 views

The rare earths high iron aluminum alloy material, developed by the company, mixes aluminum and some special materials, for example, rare earths to change the physical properties, which results a non-ferrous materials “revolution". The alloy cable enjoys three advantages, such as performance, it shows 35% more of percentage elongation,50% more of resisting fatigue strength, 40% less of inverse elasticity, 10 more years of service life and stronger antioxidant and corrosion resistance than those of copper wire, because of rare earths element added in conductor and better insulating material; safety, it is contributed to adding the patent fire retardants so that the alloy cable can still function for light even on fire; and cost, 40% less than that of copper wire.

In an attempt to reduce costs and increase market share, automakers are relocating production facilities from high-cost regions such as North America and the European Union to low-cost regions such as China, India, South America and several developing countries. Following this trend CSM Worldwide believes that the combined production out of China and South America will make up more than 50% of the growth in global light vehicle production by 2015.

Aluminum wire increasingly is used in passenger car wire harnesses. To reduce weight and improve gas mileage, the automotive companies are turning to aluminum wire, among other solutions. Aluminum wire always has the potential issue of galvanic corrosion between the wire and the beryllium-copper or phos-bronze contacts. Companies like TE Connectivity and Delphi have come up with solutions that alleviate this concern.
