Aluminium Graphite is a metal matrix composite (MMC) that exhibits a unique set of properties. These closely mirror the sharp rise in interest in the design of thermal management materials exhibiting specific properties that must accommodate the ever-increasing requirements on reliability in a wide range of industries.

You benefit from these advantages:

• Rapid Heat Transport
• Customized expansion behaviour
• Lightweight Solutions
• Customer-specific designs
• Functional Surfaces
• Increased reliability and lifetime

Parts made of Aluminium Graphite effectively remove heat from hot-spots and reduce mechanical tension within the assemblies. This leads to an improvement in the overall reliability of the electronic system.

Schunk Aluminium Graphite products find applications in various markets, including transportation, industry, and communications technology:

• Soldering jigs and fixtures
• Microelectronic carrier plates and housings
• Flanges for RF power amplifiers
• Heat sinks and heat spreaders
• Base plates and coolers for power modules
• Spacers, shims and interposers
