Cost and weight of the transformer

Copper clad aluminium coil: lower material cost, relatively lighter weight, less conductive than pure copper, mainly used in household regulators and transformers that do not require high precision.

All-copper coil: material cost is relatively higher, but better conductivity, durability, longer life, weight is higher than aluminium wire, equipment performance will be more stable.

● Manufacturing process:

The advanced degree of manufacturing process determines the quality and performance of the transformer. Efficient manufacturing process and strict quality control can reduce product defects and improve the service life of the transformer, but this will also increase certain production costs.

Good transformers are usually wound with all copper wire + imported silicon steel sheet made of iron core.

How much does a transformer weight

The relationship between material selection and capacity

The weight of the transformer depends largely on the coil material and capacity. At the same time, the larger the capacity of the transformer, the coil material required also increases, so the cost will be higher the heavier the weight.
