Dispensing For Beginners: Thermal Interface Materials
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and device miniaturization have significantly increased the demand for computational power, leading to devices operating at higher temperatures than ever before. Since air is a very poor conductor of heat, it is essential to use thermal interface materials (TIMs) to create an efficient thermal pathway between heat-generating components and heat-dissipating components.
However, dispensing TIMs can often produce a bottleneck in high-volume manufacturing assembly processes. New manufacturers may find it challenging to optimize dispensing for both high thermal performance and reduced cycle times.
In this virtual event, you will learn about:
• The benefits of dispensable Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs), specifically single-component thermal gels
• Types of equipment & factors to consider when selecting equipment
• The steps involved in the dispensing process
• Typical challenges encountered when dispensing single-component thermal gels
