Tungsten Copper Alloy Production Process

Tungsten-copper alloy is produced using powder metallurgy. A key manufacturing process for this alloy is infiltration: after compacting the porous tungsten preform, copper is allowed to infiltrate it, followed by sintering. The material is then machined to achieve the required geometry as specified by the customer. Tungsten-copper alloy is a pseudo-alloy of copper and the refractory metal tungsten. Since copper and tungsten are immiscible, the infiltration method is used to achieve bonding between the two materials. The specific processes are as follows:

• Compaction: The porous tungsten preform is compacted.
• Infiltration: Copper is allowed to infiltrate the compacted tungsten preform.
• Sinterización: The infiltrated material is sintered at high temperatures, forming a dense solid material.
• Recocido: The sintered products undergo an annealing process to remove internal stresses and improve toughness and ductility.
• Machining: Precision machining processes, such as turning, milling, and grinding, are applied to the sintered parts to achieve final dimensions and shapes.
• Tratamiento térmico: The alloy undergoes additional heat treatment to optimize properties such as hardness, strength, or other physical characteristics.
• Tratamiento de superficies: If required, surface treatments (such as coating, passivation, etc.) are applied to enhance corrosion resistance, hardness, or other properties.
