Our vertical integration structure allows us to fine-tune our processes from raw material to final product, and fulfill customers’ demands in the most efficient way. More specifically, Sofia Med operates fully equipped laboratories for chemical, mechanical, metallurgy and metallography; this enables us to constantly monitor all key parameters of our processes and products and ensure the needed results. In parallel, Sofia Med is an active member of the Hellenic Metals Research Center (ELKEME), and we support wider research activities focused on copper and copper alloy advancements. Additionally, we leverage the specialized knowledge of an extensive network comprising academic institutions, research laboratories and industry partners. These strategic collaborations allow our company to gather valuable know-how regarding product innovations and improvements in production processes, ensuring we satisfy diverse and sophisticated client demands.
Our ongoing technological progress enables us to continuously support our customers as their requirements evolve over time. Furthermore, our market-driven development projects actively engage specialists from various backgrounds, working closely alongside the Applied Metallurgy and Quality Control departments to achieve optimal outcomes.
The laboratories at Sofia Med are equipped with high-quality equipment for analyzing mechanical properties, chemical composition, geometric characteristics, coating parameters, and the internal structure of materials.
Sofia Med has five fully automated visual inspection systems, which use high-resolution industrial cameras, artificial lighting and specialized software for defect recognition.
Sofia Med also has a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), which provides:
The SEM is an indispensable tool for new product development, failure analysis, and optimization of technological processes.
We offer advanced surface treatment solutions to enhance the performance, durability and appearance of our copper and copper alloy products.
Our capabilities support a wide range of applications in the electrical, automotive and electronics industries.
Our HALT line is designed for coils of copper and copper alloys, delivering a uniform and durable tin coating through immersion in molten tin.
The process ensures excellent adhesion, corrosion protection, and consistent coverage. It is equipped with online X-Ray thickness control and a surface inspection system for continuous quality monitoring.
This process provides a bright smooth tin coating and offers strong corrosion protection.
We offer two silver coating methods:
Both processes enhance conductivity and provide exceptional resistance to tarnishing and degradation, essential for high-performance electrical components.
Our cleaning lines remove all surface impurities, ensuring high-quality results and reliable performance in demanding applications. With our latest investment on a Heavy Gauge Cleaning Line, we can treat materials with thicknesses up to 8 mm, supporting a wider range of products and applications.
All surface treatment processes can be adapted to meet specific customer requirements.
Our commitment to customization extends beyond just manufacturing; it encompasses every stage of the process, from initial design to final delivery. We offer tailor-made solutions for our customers that fit seamlessly into their systems but also enhance their overall performance and efficiency. With a focus on quality and reliability, we aim to exceed expectations and provide exceptional value.
Leveraging our advanced machining capabilities – which include CNC machining, programmable punching, bending cutting and deburring operations – we deliver solutions that are precisely engineered to meet specific applications. Our team collaborates closely with customers to understand their requirements, ensuring that each product is crafted with meticulous attention to detail.
At Sofia Med, we construct and maintain our own tools, supporting our full range of processes – casting, rolling, slitting, extrusion, and more. We pride ourselves on our state-of-the-art CNC machines and tooling workshop.
This facility enables us to achieve unparalleled precision in machining and tooling, ensuring that every product meets our rigorous standards as well as international ones. Our advanced equipment provides the flexibility to customize tools and instruments to meet the specific requirements of our clients, ensuring tailored solutions for every need.
