The invention discloses an ultra-fine
copper wire and a production method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
copper wire production. The production method of the ultra-fine
copper wire comprises the following steps: (1) continuously
casting and rolling a copper rod, namely melting an electrolytic copper plate, deslagging and purifying to obtain a copper solution, continuously
casting the copper solution to obtain a
casting blank, and continuously rolling, acid-free cleaning and
waxing the casting blank to obtain the copper rod; (2) continuous drawing and on-line annealing: the copper rod is subjected to multi-pass continuous drawing, in the drawing process, large drawing is carried out firstly, then medium drawing is carried out, on-line
continuous annealing is carried out while medium drawing is carried out, and then small drawing is carried out, so that a small-drawn
copper wire is obtained; and (3) micro-drawing and annealing are conducted, specifically, the small-drawn
copper wire is subjected to micro-drawing till the
average diameter is 0.03-0.05 mm, then annealing is conducted, and the ultra-fine
copper wire is obtained. The ultra-fine copper wire obtained by adopting the production method provided by the invention is large in weight and large in elongation rate when being broken for the first time.
