CNC Machining in Copper

Copper is characterized by its resistance to corrosion, excellent electrical conductivity, and significant malleability. The metal’s distinctive reddish-orange color is easily identifiable, and it maintains its visual appeal even as it naturally oxidizes, forming a greenish-blue layer called patina.
