Heavy Copper PCB manufacturer
Heavy copper PCBs are made in the same way as standard PCBs, but with thicker layers of copper foil on the inner and outer layers. The thickness of the copper can range from 3 oz/ft2 to 10 oz/ft2 or more, depending on the application.

Testing Procedures
Heavy copper PCBs have thicker copper-coated printed circuit boards than standard PCBs. They are used in a wide range of electronic devices and systems that require high current or power handling.
Heavy copper PCBs have a number of benefits, including:
- Increased copper thickness allows heavy copper PCBs to handle higher levels of current and power, making them suitable for high-power applications such as motor control, power conversion, and inverters.
- Increased reliability: The extra copper provides additional mechanical support and aids in heat dissipation, which can improve PCB reliability.
- Enhanced electrical performance: Because heavy copper PCBs have lower resistance and inductance, they can improve the electrical performance of a circuit.
- Enhanced thermal management: The increased copper thickness aids in heat dissipation, which can improve PCB thermal management.
Heavy copper PCBs are typically used in a variety of applications, including power supplies, motor control, inverters, and other high-power electronic devices. They are also commonly used in automotive and military applications due to their high current and power-handling capabilities
