Extrusion Heat Sinks

After the aluminum rod is heated to the plastic temperature (400℃~500℃), the extruder uses oil pressure to extrude the aluminum rod through the extrusion die to become the required profile. The aluminum extrusion profile is processed into a radiator through cutting, machining, surface treatment, etc.

Application status:

Aluminum extruded heat sink is the most common heat sink. Aluminum extrusion molding through molds can achieve complex heat dissipation tooth structure, and the processing cost is relatively low when mass-produced. Due to the influence of the aluminum extrusion process mold multiples, the number and height of heat dissipation teeth are limited to a certain extent, and the heat dissipation capacity is insufficient when facing high-power devices; the mold opening cost of large molds is high, the mold opening cycle is long, and the stability is poor.

Application status

Why use extruded radiators?

(1) It is more efficient than the heat sink formed by stamping;

(2) more cost saving than mechanical processing;

(3) A variety of standard shapes and sizes are available;

(4) Easy customization is lighter than copper, with obvious advantages;

(5) The MAX CLIP coupler system does not need to install hardware and tools.

The friction welding radiator uses small-size mold extrusion splicing to achieve ultra-large width aluminum profile radiator, which increases the extrusion ratio. At the same time, the small mold also greatly reduces the mold cost, shortens the development cycle and increases the stability of the mold.

Two or more aluminum extrusion semi-finished products are spliced ​​into a larger aluminum extrusion semi-finished product by stir friction welding. The splicing seam is welded by friction welding at high temperature without medium to form an integrated structure. Its heat dissipation effect and structural strength can reach that of aluminum extrusion material. It is then processed into a radiator through subsequent machining, surface treatment and other methods.
