VT machining offers CNC Precision Machining for C102 Copper (UNS C10200 / OF / Cu-OF), typically supplied annealed or H02. Oxygen-free copper, slightly lower purity than C101.
CNC Precision Machining Notes for C102 Copper
We use high-efficiency toolpaths with constant engagement on C102 Copper to keep cutting temperature and tool wear under control.
For estimating, a 100 × 100 × 10 mm block of C102 Copper weighs about 0.89 kg.

What tolerances can you hold for CNC Precision Machining C102 Copper?
Achievable tolerances for C102 Copper machining depend on the alloy, geometry and feature size. Milling holds positional and dimensional tolerances to around ±0.01 mm, tighter with precision setups. Exact figures are confirmed against your drawing callouts.
Why is C102 Copper a good choice for CNC Precision Machining?
C102 Copper is excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, which makes it well suited to CNC Precision Machining. We tune the process to the alloy so the finished C102 Copper machining part meets your dimensional and functional requirements.
What is the typical lead time and minimum order for CNC Precision Machining C102 Copper?
CNC Precision Machining prototypes for C102 Copper can be produced quickly and scaled to series production. Send your drawing and quantity and we will advise lead time and any minimum order.
Does CNC Precision Machining C102 Copper require dedicated tooling?
Most C102 Copper machining work uses standard cutting tools and CNC programs; dedicated fixtures are made only when geometry or volume requires them.
