Fin skiving machines Heat Sink Types By Manufacturing Process

· Extruded Heat Sinks

The majority of fin skiving machines are made from extruded aluminum. The process is useful for most applications. Extruded heat sinks come at a low cost and custom specifications can be easily manufactured.

· Bonded Heat Sinks

These are normally used for applications that require large-sized heat sinks. One benefit of these is that the base material and fin material can be different. Also, a combination of aluminum and copper fins can be used instead of just one fin material.

· Skived Heat Sinks

Heat sinks produced through this method are normally made from copper. They are produced from a solid block of metal. These heat sinks offer high design flexibility and you can achieve high fin-density.

· Stamped Heat Sinks

In this process, metal fins are stamped and then soldered onto the base. These are generally used for low-power applications.

·  Forged Heat Sinks

Forged heat sinks are made by compressing aluminum or copper and have many applications. Heat sinks can be cold forged or hot forged.

· CNC Machined Heat Sinks

These offer high thermal conductivity, and you can achieve the most complex geometries with this process. This means you have plenty of flexibility in your design.
