Wakefield Thermal is known for high-quality, performance-driven thermal solutions. Their extensive product lineup includes vacuum-brazed liquid cold plates created by machining two metal plates with interior channels and fin structures (zipper fin), which are then carefully sealed together inside a vacuum chamber.
Liquid Cold Plate Heat Sink - Wakefield Thermal
The vacuum-brazed cold plate has unparalleled flexibility in its design, with a filler metal with a lower melting point is melted into the joints of the cold plate via capillary action. The vacuum created in the chamber removes the atmosphere, thus preventing the forming of oxides that would normally form during the brazing process.
