Decisions made at the design and supply stage of a project can have far-reaching consequences down the line. When it comes to cathode design, edge strips are a small but critical consideration that’s often overlooked upfront – but ends up having a major impact on safety, cost, productivity, and the environment.

Located in Peru, Marcobre’s Mina Justa is a new copper mine development producing high purity electrolytic copper cathodes. With production starting in 2021, the cathode stripping machine project is projected to produce 160,000 tons per annum of copper contained in cathodes and concentrates.
