90. Cold Forged Heat Sink for Automotive Industry

Cold forging is adopted increasingly in the automotive industry for its exceptional heat dissipation capabilities. Common cold-forged parts in the automotive sector include gears, shafts, bearings, suspension parts, inverters, brake component fasteners, etc. Why cold forging manufacturing process?

Cold Forging is a process that metal is shaped and formed into desired shapes under great pressure and at room temperature, with one single punch, the 3-dimensional heat sink emerges. It generates no heat or energy loss, reduces the need for secondary processes, and lessens material loss. Cold-Forging heat sinks offer accurate dimensions, strong surfaces and reliable structure, making it an attractive choice for many automotive applications.

Cold Forging Advantages

1. Material Strength: Cold forging typically works with materials like AL1050,1060,1070,6063,6061 and CU1100; these materials can be effectively shaped and deformed at room temperature without compromising their structural integrity and offering cold forged heat sinks with high strength and durability.

2. Precision dimension: The controlled deformation and lower temperatures help maintain the shape and size of the part

3. Cost-Effective: This manufacturing process minimizes material waste and has higher production rate.

4. Enhanced Surface Finish: The metal is shaped and formed into desired shapes under high pressure; this compression results in a denser and smoother surface.

5. Environmentally Friendly : Minimum material waste and reduced energy consumption of this process are aligned with eco-friendly practice in automotive industry.
