Semi-finished product production

The production of semi-finished products is a central core competence of Diehl Metall. Using state-of-the-art production processes, Diehl Brass Solutions (DBS) manufactures rods, tubes and profiles made of copper and copper alloys for demanding applications in the automotive industry, electrical engineering, sanitary engineering and mechanical engineering.

Our integrated process chain guarantees the highest material quality, dimensional accuracy and cost-effectiveness - from the melt to the ready-to-install semi-finished product.

1. melting and casting

It all starts with the production of high-quality raw materials. Through precisely controlled melting and casting processes, we create homogeneous microstructures and defined material properties as the basis for further processing.

Added value:

  • Consistently high material quality
  • Optimized material properties
  • Efficient use of resources

2. extrusion

The extrusion process produces precise semi-finished products with a variety of geometries from the cast billets. This process enables complex profiles, rods and tubes with high dimensional accuracy and excellent surface quality.

Advantages:

  • Large variety of shapes
  • Tight tolerances
  • High cost-effectiveness, even for large series

3. drawing

We achieve exact final dimensions and defined mechanical properties through multi-stage drawing processes. This production step is crucial for precision applications with the highest demands on dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

The result:

  • Maximum precision
  • Optimized strength properties
  • Consistent product quality

4. straightening, testing and further processing

In the final step, the semi-finished products are straightened, tested and processed to customer specifications. State-of-the-art testing procedures ensure compliance with all technical specifications and international standards.

Quality assurance:

  • 100% inspections according to requirements
  • Certified quality standards
  • High process and delivery reliability
