Copper heat sink features
A copper heatsink is sometimes used as a heat sink as it has high thermal conductivity. This can be observed if you heat one end of a piece of copper, the other end will quickly reach the same temperature, Because copper’s high thermal conductivity allows heat to pass through it quickly. So the heat dissipation capacity of copper heat sink is excellent, often heat absorption is fast, heat dissipation is also fast, heat dissipation capacity is stronger than aluminum material
The main features of copper being chosen as the material for the heat sink include:
Copper has good heat conductively
Thermal conductivity is 401 W/mk
Desity is 8.9kg/m3 (0.321 lb/in³)
Copper heatsink main manufacturing process:
1.Copper bonded fin heatsink
Copper bonded fin heatsink is composed of a heat sink base and fins, and fins are disposed on the heat sink base. The base and fins are made of copper. Machining several grooves on the base , and the width of the groove is slightly wider than the thickness of the fin, and inserted the processed fins into the grooves, and the fins are positioned by a special tool, and then inserted thin knife type tool between the two fins to apply pressure to base, the roots of the fins are fixed , and finally flatten the surface of the base. It can also be processed by a welding process. The advantages are high heat dissipation efficiency, small device size and low cost.
2. Copper skived heatsink
Copper skived heatsink by using a copper profile to make the copper base and copper fin. To skiving the full copper material into a thin or straight or spiral or wave fin high-conductivity product, and without any connection point, heat conduction efficiency can reach 100% of the material. The skived fin can make the heat sink thinner and improve the heat dissipation efficiency. The skving process can achieve several times of the thermal conductivity of the common extruded material in a specific size, and the processing process is simple.
3. Copper stamping heatsink
The copper fin can be stamped into the desired shape. Usually used in traditional air-cooled electronic devices, it is often used to provide an inexpensive way to dissipate heat for devices with low heat. Due to the use of advanced molds and high-speed stamping technology, stamped fin heat sinks are ideal for mass production.
Copper vs aluminum heatsink:
Materials Used to Manufacture heat sink are usually copper and aluminum, Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Copper has good heat conductively, but it is expensive, difficult to process and too heavy. ( some full copper heat sink exceed the CPU’s weight limit), heat capacity is small, and it is easy to oxidize. Pure aluminum is too soft to be used directly. The aluminum alloy used can provide sufficient hardness. The advantages of aluminum alloy are cheap and light, but heat-conducting of the aluminum heat sink profile is much worse than copper. Some heat sink take their own strength and embed a piece of copper plate on the base plate of the aluminum alloy heat sink .
