Components using thermal interface materials, such as die-cut thermal gap pads, provide a path for heat transfer between a heat-generating device and a heat sink or cooling plate. As our world becomes more connected, we are using more electronic devices that use and store energy. Where there is electric current, there is heat, and heat generated must be transferred away to keep the device running within safe operational temperatures. Too much heat can cause poor device efficiency and even device failure, making thermal management a key requirement for many components.
Thermal Gap Pads, Gap Fillers, Thermal Bonding Tapes, Foil Heat Spreaders, Thermally Conductive Foams
Thermal interface materials are lightweight and easy to handle. Die-cut thermal gap pads, conductive tapes, and foils are often utilized over greases and liquid adhesives due to easy application and consistent performance. Marian can help design and manufacture thermal management components to meet the specifications of your application.
