Ceramic heat spreaders replace heatsinks
Designed for EMI-sensitive applications, the latest low-profile heat spreaders from Chomerics provide a simple and effective method of cooling semiconductors.
Cho-Form materials can be applied to either plastic or metal components using an accurate automated dispenser system.
The Spanga, facility will be able to handle both thermal and moisture cure versions of the material.
Typical applications for Cho-form include cellular basestations, shielded PCB covers and indoor equipment enclosures.
Further deployment of the application equipment will be modular, so that future expansion can be achieved quickly and without disruption.
In addition to working on projects using the equipment situated in Spanga, Chomerics engineers will also be able to provide support for customers wishing to install Cho-Form application equipment in their own sites.
Commenting on the new setup, Alan Goswell, European Cho-Form Business Unit Manager said: "Cho-Form gives customers the opportunity to achieve an effective solution to their EMI shielding applications, whilst at the same time giving significant assembly and supply chain improvements over previous designs using loose gaskets.
The new facility in Sweden will allow Chomerics to work closely with its customers in Northern Europe to achieve the optimum results in their shielding applications".
