Innovation empowers! Qianyu Aluminum achieves mass production of aluminum coils, with breakthrough in aluminum-to-copper technology leading to industry upgrade.
Recently, Shandong Qianyu Aluminum Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Qianyu Aluminum") announced two pieces of good news: the company's aluminum coil products have achieved large-scale mass production, and it has also made a key breakthrough in the application of aluminum-to-copper technology, successfully launching a series of aluminum-to-copper products suitable for multiple industries. This marks a leapfrog development for Qianyu Aluminum in the niche market of aluminum processing, further expanding the company's product matrix and injecting new vitality into the industry's cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and green transformation.
As a modern enterprise specializing in non-ferrous metal processing, Qianyu Aluminum is located in Linqu County, Weifang City, Shandong Province. Focusing on technological innovation and product upgrades in the aluminum processing field, and leveraging the advantages of the local well-developed aluminum industry cluster, Qianyu Aluminum is deeply involved in non-ferrous metal rolling processing and the research and development of new functional metal materials. It accurately grasps the industry's development trend of "lightweighting, low cost, and greening," focusing on the production of aluminum coils and the research and development of aluminum-to-copper technology, and is committed to providing high-quality, cost-effective aluminum solutions for industries such as home appliances, chemicals, new energy, and power.
The aluminum coiled tubing products now in mass production are made from high-quality aluminum alloys such as 1060 and 3003, processed through precision cold rolling, coiling, and other processes. The tubing diameter ranges from 6-50mm, with wall thicknesses from 0.5-3mm. They can be coiled into diameters of 300-1500mm according to customer needs, offering advantages such as lightweight design, high thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance.
Regarding breakthroughs in aluminum-to-copper technology, Qianyu Aluminum closely follows industry trends. Addressing the industry pain points of copper scarcity and persistently high copper prices (currently nearly four times the price of aluminum), a dedicated R&D team was established to overcome technical challenges such as increased contact resistance due to aluminum oxidation, high coefficient of linear expansion, and complex welding processes. Combining the ISO9001 quality management system standard, a comprehensive control system was established from raw material selection and production processing to finished product testing, successfully developing a series of aluminum-to-copper products suitable for home appliances, new energy vehicles, and power transmission.
A research and development manager at Qianyu Aluminum stated that replacing copper witH Aluminum is a crucial direction for cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and green transformation in the global manufacturing industry, and a concrete measure in response to the "Implementation Plan for High-Quality Development of the Aluminum Industry (2025-2027)" issued by ten departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. This breakthrough in the mass production of aluminum coils and the aluminum-to-copper substitution technology is a significant achievement of the company's commitment to technological innovation and a powerful demonstration of its deep cultivation in the niche aluminum processing sector. The company will continue to increase its R&D investment, optimize production processes, further improve product performance, expand the application scenarios of aluminum coils and aluminum-to-copper substitution products, and promote product upgrades towards high-end and refined products.
Currently, the global aluminum-to-copper substitution market is entering a period of rapid development. By 2030, the substitution rate of aluminum for copper in the power, automotive, and home appliance sectors will reach 25%-30%. Standing at the forefront of industry development, Qianyu Aluminum will take this product breakthrough as an opportunity to leverage its standardized quality management system, fully utilize its technological and production capacity advantages, deeply cultivate the aluminum processing field, promote the large-scale promotion of aluminum coils and aluminum-for-copper products, help downstream enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency, practice the concept of green development, promote the high-quality development of the aluminum industry, and strive to build an aluminum processing enterprise brand with core competitiveness.
