KME and copper

Our modern world would be impossible without copper: electricity,

air conditioning, refrigeration, traffic and digital media technology
have become part of our daily lives and owe much of their widespread
success to the consistent use of the raw material copper. Copper has
become indispensable in technological development, and its importance
as a state-of-the-art raw material is unchallenged.

KME Germany GmbH & Co. KG with its production sites in Osnabrück
and Menden manufactures Standard Products for the building and rolled
industry and also in Osnabrück Special Products for industrial applications.
The precise definition of mechanical properties such as high electrical con-
ductivity
2 or narrow production tolerances are essential for industrial use.

 Rolled Products
for industrial applications

At KME, copper and copper-alloy rolled material is tailor-made in quantity

to customer specifications. In addition to strips, sheets, plates and blanks
for industrial use, KME Germany GmbH & Co. KG in Osnabrück also
manufactures special strips needed for the production of cables and
transformers. Many industrial sectors use KME's rolled products, which
include the electric and electronics industries, the automotive and
semiconductor industry, the mechanical engineering industry and
for metal working.

KME rolled products comply fully with the main international standards
(EN, DIN, ASTM, BS, AFNOR etc.)

Brass Rolled Products

Brass is probably the most well-known of all copper alloys. Varying the composition
of copper and zinc creates different types of material which are specifically geared
to meeting particular demands. At KME, brass products are made in a wide variety
of alloys, manufactured to EN 1652 and EN 1654, to tighter tolerances than those
stated in the EN standards.
