Electronics
Thanks to innovative solutions for constantly changing new application areas, Luvata supplies metals and technology for a huge range of electronic applications. We produce wire, circuit-board strips, connectors, a wide array of wire solutions in various alloys and shapes, and component parts for the computer, Audio-Video and ballast industries. Most famously, Luvata wire can be found inside the biggest-selling, longest-lasting consumer battery brands in the world.
We also produce heavy-duty electronic components, such as those found in the automotive industry. For example, the electronics behind the most advanced car-safety controls - after 10 years of cycling between –10 and +150 degrees Celsius in a damp and dirty environment, must be ready for action as soon as the driver needs them. Our technology makes sure that connectors and components produce optimum performance exactly when they need to.
Some major applications in which Luvata’s technology is used include: vacuum tubes for radio and TV transmitters, vacuum capacitors, vacuum interrupters, magnetrons, heat sinks, bases for semiconductors and substrates as well as targets and backing plates in sputtering devices.
For these applications Luvata Oxygen-Free Copper offers very high electrical conductivity, ultra high purity, readiness for direct bonding with ceramics and glass, and immunity to hydrogen embrittlement.
