Any Way You Like It
The concept of increasing fin efficiency by sharing fins
between two baseplates originated in the one piece hollow
extrusion many years
ago but as heat flux densities increased
design engineers moved to adhesive solutions to attach a
multitude of fins to dual baseplates. Typically, Fabfin was
used on one side and glue on the other. While
this
fabrication method continues to satisfy many applications,
the
need for a truly robust, thermal barrier free solution
was required.
Such a solution exists in, the patent pending,
swaging process where
a multitude of aluminum and/or copper
fins are mechanically attached to dual aluminum baseplates at
the same time without the use of any adhesives.
The swaging process has essentially unlimited possibilities
as to length, width, height, fin thickness and fin spacing of
a heatsink. However, given that fin heights and fin spacings
require unique tooling. Optimized solutions have been
determine, and tooling provided, for assemblies using the
industry standard 125 x 125mm axial fan. Other options are
solely in the hands of the design engineer.
