Heat sinks are used to maintain the temperature of a component or a system by providing a series of extended surfaces called fins. There are a lot of heat sinks that are produced with skiving available in the market. These types of heat sinks consist of uniformly shaped and closely spaced fins. Thes

· Extruded Heat SinksThe majority of heat sinks 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 SinksThese are normally used for applications that require large-si

Diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits generate considerable amounts of heat during operation. Extreme heat can damage or significantly affect the performance of semiconductor devices, and therefore, supplemental cooling is necessary to maintain the temperature within the limits specified by a

For an air-cooled heat sink product, its effect depends on the air volume of the fan, but also on the design of the skived fins heat sink. A properly designed heat sink can make the computer run stably by relying only on the chassis fan when the computer is not overclocked or continuously fully load

In order to produce a scraped scraped fins heat sink, a solid block of aluminum or copper with a certain thickness is used as a starting material. The block is extruded into a rectangle. Then place it on the workbench. Apply lubricant to the top of the surface so that excessive heat is not generated

The most common heat sink materials are aluminium alloys. Aluminium alloy 1050A has one of the higher thermal conductivity values at 229 W/m•K but is mechanically soft. Aluminium alloys 6060 and 6063 are commonly used, with thermal conductivity values of 166 and 201 W/m•K, respectively. The values depend on the temper of the alloy. Copper has around twice the conductivity of aluminium, but is three times as dense and, depending on the market, around four to six times more expensive than aluminium. Aluminium can be extruded, but copper can not. Copper heat sinks are machined and skived. Copper is still the best material with highest conductivity for high performance applications.
