A Disruptive Innovation of Thermal Management
Free Whitepaper
The goal of this study was to break the
miniaturization limit and innovate a CPU
cooler that matches the best-in-class
products while requiring much less space
and material. By designing for additive
manufacturing from the start, the typical
restraints of conventional production
methods were overcome.
Download the whitepaper "A Disruptive Innovation of Thermal Management" and get deep insight about reinventing a high-performance CPU cooler with 3D printing.
High heat loads limit the miniaturization of portable computers, power electronic devices and high-power LED lighting. Most ambitious technological solutions from the lab are not ready for mass production and deployment in consumer products. But industrial 3D printing, or so-called additive manufacturing,
can bridge the gap for thermal management components and keep lossy electronics cool even when the available space is severely limited. The freedom of design provided by 3D
printed thermal management components offers the same or
superior effectiveness as conventionally manufactured components, but requires much less space.
This whitepaper gives information about:
- How to achieve excellent thermal management with restricted space
- What becomes possible by applying additive manufacturing to CPU cooling
- Why additive manufacturing is key for the further miniaturization of electronic devices
- How new design freedom paves the way for radical innovations
