Frequently Asked Questions

How does the calculator determine the cost savings for bimetallic wires?
Our calculator fetches live London Metal Exchange (LME) market rates for Copper, Aluminum, and Nickel. It automatically compares the real-time material cost of a pure copper baseline against the customized volume ratio of your chosen bimetallic wire (CCS, CCA, or NCC).
How are the environmental (ESG) savings calculated?
The ESG metrics are based on our manufacturing processes. FISSOT’s proprietary Cold Cladding Technology uses zero water and significantly less energy compared to traditional electroplating. The calculator estimates the prevented toxic wastewater (in liters), electrolysis energy saved, and overall CO₂ footprint reduction.
Can I customize the cladding volume ratio for my specific project?
Absolutely. While we provide standard industry presets (such as CCS 21% IACS or CCA 15% Vol), the calculator features a slider that allows you to manually adjust the cladding volume ratio from 1% to 99% to match your exact mechanical and electrical requirements.
Does the tool account for stranded or enameled wire structures?
Yes. You can toggle between solid and stranded structures (7 or 19 strands), as well as specify bare or enameled insulation. The calculator automatically adjusts the cost multipliers, exact cross-sectional area, and effective strand specifications accordingly.
What information is included in the generated PDF report?
The downloadable PDF report includes your full input configuration, estimated conductivity (% IACS), single strand and core diameter specifications, precise weight reduction metrics, total cost savings, and a detailed breakdown of the environmental (ESG) impact.
Are the values provided by this calculator guaranteed for production?
The values generated are theoretical estimates based on current market rates and standard mathematical models. While highly accurate for initial ROI and ESG assessments, we recommend submitting your report to our engineering team for precise manufacturing tolerances and formal production quotes.
