The upward continuous casting
method, known as the Upcast®
system, for the production of copper
and copper alloy wire rod is supplied
by Upcast Oy.
Upcast technology is available in both
single- and double-furnace configura-
tions. Each single-furnace Upcast line
is a compact unit built around a
combined melting/holding furnace.
Maximum output from a single-furnace
line is 12,000 TPA. Each double-
furnace Upcast line comprises of
separate melting and holding furnaces
connected with a short launder.
Maximum output from a double-
furnace line is 40,000 TPA. Single-
furnace lines can easily be expanded
to double-furnace configuration.
The advantages of using Upcast
technology include:
High quality copper wire rod with
•
excellent conductivity, drawability
and surface finish
Simple operation through an •
advanced control system
Possibility to cast different rod •
sizes and easy variation of
production output
Low energy consumption •
Upcast copper wire rod is suitable for
all electrical applications and for fine
and multi-wire drawing, enamelled
wire production and continuous rotary
extrusion.

The BM 30 from Wafios is a combi-
nation of new and proven machine
features. The design includes the con-
cept, already familiar from the existing
BM series, of turning the wire rather than
turning the bending head. The fixed
position of the bending head offers
benefits in terms of performance, process
reliability, quality and service life.
In summary, the Wafios BM 30 has the
following advantages:
Tried and tested machine structure •
To a large extent, predecessor tools •
can be used
Higher process safety with adjus- •
table bend-back clearance
Continuous standard operating •
system
Wide range of applications •
