Wakefield Thermal Minute: Conduction Cooled Heat Frames

Wakefield Thermal's Raleigh, North Carolina facility has extensive experience manufacturing milled aluminum heat frames. Heat Frames are used to meet or exceed rugged specification requirements. Heat frames are precisely machined aluminum or copper solid blocks that coincide with a specific style of a printed circuit board for ruggedized applications. When combined with thermal-interface material or “gap pads,” conduction-cooled heat frames increase a board’s operating temperature range, as well as its resistance to shock and vibration. When integrated with wedgelocks and ejectors, heat frames allow industry specific boards to fit within conduction cooled chassis slots with zero insertion force. Wakefield Thermal's heat frames can be designed in compliance with any industry or application specification..
