Conductive & Insulating Profiles
Profiles integrating copper conductive elements and plastic insulation within a single extruded structure.
Copper-Plastic Co-extrusion
OKAWA provides copper-plastic co-extrusion manufacturing that integrates copper conductive elements with plastic profiles in a continuous extrusion process. Based on customer drawings, samples or functional requirements, we develop profiles that combine electrical conductivity, insulation and structural functions within a single component. From profile and material evaluation to tooling, sampling and mass production, we support the development of application-specific copper-plastic composite profiles.

Manufacturing Advantages
Why Our Process Stands Apart
Integrated Conductive & Insulating Structure
Integrates copper conductive elements and plastic insulation into a single composite profile.
Reduced Assembly Requirements
Co-extruded construction can reduce separate component assembly and simplify downstream manufacturing.
Custom Cross-Section Development
Copper position, plastic profile geometry and functional structure can be developed according to customer requirements.
Multi-Function Integration
Conductive, insulating and structural functions can be combined within one continuous profile.
Production-Oriented Development
Tooling, sampling and process validation support the transition from profile design to repeatable mass production.

Engineering Considerations
Technical Factors to Evaluate
Copper Positioning
Copper position and geometry should be evaluated together with the plastic profile structure to support stable co-extrusion and subsequent assembly.
Plastic Material Selection
Plastic material selection should consider insulation, mechanical, environmental and application requirements.
Cross-Section Design
Profile geometry, wall thickness and copper placement should be evaluated as an integrated structure rather than as separate components.
Electrical Requirements
Current carrying, contact and insulation requirements should be identified during project evaluation.
Secondary Processing
Cutting, punching, connection features and assembly requirements should be considered during profile development.
