Air Cooled Heatsinks - Fabricated Heatsink Assembly - Brazed

 

brazed assembly heatsink

Overview

Brazing of a multitude of fins to a baseplate is more costly than “swaging”, “adhesive”, or “soldering” processes but provides a robust, high performance thermal solution when:

  • "swaging” is unable to provide the high ratios required
  • "adhesive” is thermally limiting and/or mechanically unsound
  • “soldering” is unreliable between aluminum components.

Swaging of aluminum to aluminum and Soldering copper to copper provide equal thermal and mechanical performance to Brazing under the same conditions.

Brazing of mixed metals is not possible in aluminum/copper finned heatsink applications.
