Heavy copper PCBs improve performance by increasing the thickness of the copper layer and are primarily used in high-power applications. When space is limited and widening traces cannot handle high currents, Heavy copper PCBs are necessary. The thicker copper layer allows them to carry large currents (tens to hundreds of amperes) while efficiently conducting current and dissipating heat to prevent overheating.
Their structure can be divided into “overall thick copper” (the entire copper layer is thicker) and “partial thick copper” (only specific traces are thickened) to balance performance and cost.
This design is particularly suitable for applications requiring high current-carrying capacity, efficient heat dissipation, or high mechanical strength, such as charging piles and motor controllers for new energy vehicles, as well as high-power electronic systems, including industrial power supplies and automotive equipment.
To support this important sector, we have established long-term partnerships with several rigorously selected factories to provide you with thick copper PCB solutions that offer high current-carrying capacity, efficient heat dissipation, and strong long-term stability.
