Cooling solutions such as heat sinks, electronic housings, high-density liquid heat sink plates and similar must have specific properties for heat dissipation. This also includes a high level of thermal conductivity, low porosity, leak tightness and the ability to be able to construct thin walls and high fins. The CTX partner company, Aavid Thermalloy, developed the high density die casting (HDDC) process in collaboration with university partners. The technology allows the manufacturing of near-net shaped parts with better mechanical and thermal properties compared to traditional die-cast elements.
