Common questions about skived heat sink technology, manufacturing processes, and applications.
Skived heat sinks offer 12-22% better thermal conductivity than extruded alternatives due to their one-piece construction that eliminates thermal interface resistance. The skiving process enables ultra-thin fins (down to 0.5mm) and higher fin density, resulting in significantly larger surface area for heat dissipation. Additionally, the continuous material path from base to fin tips ensures optimal heat conduction efficiency.
Choose copper skived heat sinks for high-power applications requiring maximum thermal conductivity (388 W/mK), such as power electronics, RF amplifiers, and high-performance CPUs. Aluminum is ideal for cost-sensitive applications, weight-constrained designs, and moderate thermal loads. Aluminum offers 67% weight reduction compared to copper while still providing good thermal performance (167 W/mK) and excellent corrosion resistance.
Our advanced skiving technology can achieve fin thicknesses as low as 0.5mm for copper and 0.8mm for aluminum, with fin spacing starting from 1.0mm. These ultra-thin dimensions enable exceptional fin density and surface area maximization. The precise dimensional control (±0.02mm tolerance) ensures consistent performance and optimal airflow characteristics across the entire heat sink.
Skived heat sinks excel in high-power density applications including server CPUs/GPUs, telecommunications equipment (RF amplifiers, base stations), automotive electronics (EV inverters, LED headlights), power electronics (motor drives, solar inverters), and medical equipment (laser systems, imaging devices). They’re particularly valuable where space constraints require maximum thermal performance per unit volume.
Yes, our CNC-controlled skiving machines can produce complex geometries including variable fin heights, curved profiles, non-uniform spacing, and custom mounting features. We offer design assistance to optimize fin geometry for your specific thermal requirements and airflow conditions. Custom tooling can be developed for unique applications requiring specialized fin patterns or base configurations.
Standard skived heat sinks typically require 2-3 weeks for production, while custom designs need 3-5 weeks including engineering review and tooling preparation. Prototype quantities (1-10 pieces) can often be expedited to 1-2 weeks. Large volume orders may require longer lead times but benefit from economies of scale. We maintain inventory of common sizes for faster delivery of standard configurations.
We offer various surface treatments including natural finish, anodizing (clear, black, colored), nickel plating, tin plating, and chemical passivation. Surface treatments can enhance corrosion resistance, improve thermal emissivity, or provide electrical insulation. The choice depends on your environmental requirements, thermal performance needs, and aesthetic preferences. All treatments maintain the dimensional precision of the skived fins.
Our quality control process includes incoming material inspection, in-process monitoring with real-time dimensional checking, and final inspection using coordinate measuring machines (CMM). We maintain ±0.02mm dimensional tolerance and ±0.01mm fin uniformity through temperature-controlled manufacturing environment and calibrated tooling. Each batch includes thermal performance validation and documentation per ISO 9001:2015 standards.
We offer comprehensive design support including thermal modeling, CFD analysis, fin geometry optimization, and thermal resistance calculations. Our engineering team can recommend optimal materials, dimensions, and configurations based on your thermal requirements, space constraints, and airflow conditions. We provide detailed thermal performance reports and can assist with heat sink integration into your overall thermal management strategy.
While skived heat sinks have higher per-unit manufacturing costs than extruded alternatives, they often provide better overall value through superior thermal performance, enabling smaller sizes or lower system costs. The break-even point typically occurs when thermal requirements exceed what extruded heat sinks can achieve efficiently. For high-volume applications, the precision and consistency of skiving can reduce overall system costs through improved reliability and performance.
Yes, we specialize in hybrid thermal solutions combining skived fin technology with heat pipes or vapor chambers. These configurations maximize heat spreading while maintaining the superior fin performance of skived technology. Common applications include high-power electronics requiring both heat spreading and efficient heat rejection. We can design integrated solutions with optimized contact interfaces and thermal paths for maximum performance.
We use specialized packaging designed to protect delicate skived fins during shipping, including custom foam inserts, protective caps, and anti-static materials for sensitive electronics applications. Individual parts are carefully positioned to prevent fin damage, and larger orders use custom crating. We offer various shipping options including expedited delivery for urgent projects and international shipping with proper export documentation and compliance.
