Aismalibar Increases Production Capacity for FASTHERM Laminates
May 2, 2017 | AismalibarEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Aismalibar has significantly increased their production capacity for their line of FASTHERM® laminates. In 2016 Aismalibar saw a significant increase in demand for FASTHERM primarily driven by the automotive lighting sector.
FASTHERM was developed by Aismalibar to achieve a faster thermal transition from the LED thermal pad to the heat sink. This superior thermal transition can be achieved by using the entire COBRITHERM HTC product range with either a copper or copper-aluminium base. By using Aismalibar COBRITHERM HTC range together with Fastherm technology, LEDs operate at a temperature 30ºC to 50ºC lower due to the direct thermal transition from the thermal pad to the heat sink.
Jeff Brandman, president at Aismalibar North America, said, “As the demand for thermal management products increases Aismalibar continues to increase our product offerings and production capacity. FASTHERM compliments our COBRITHERM HTC line of products and allows manufacturers to significantly lower the operating temperatures of cutting edge products.”
About Aismalibar
Aismalibar was one of the first IMS laminate manufacturers in the world and was the first in Europe. Aismalibar is proud to have introduced their material to the North American market in 2012. Their product IMS COBRITHERM is a qualified and recognized Insulated Metal Substrate which gives the best thermal management solutions with high thermal conductivity, low thermal impedance and high dielectric capacity. Aismalibar has implemented a 100% proof test with 1-3KV (High Pot Test) to all IMS laminates coming out of their plant. This is the only way to insure the dialectical strength is perfect and that production challenges are detected before PCBs arrive to the end user. The AISMALIBAR production plants, as well as COBRITHERM, COBRISOL and IGAV are trade registered trademarks and factories held by GABRIEL BENMAYORS.A.

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Etch System Water Usage, Part 2
05/02/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my last column, I reviewed some relatively simple ways to reduce water usage in existing etch systems: cutting down cooling coil water flow, adding chillers to replace plant water for cooling, lowering flow rate nozzles for rinses, etc. This month, I’ll continue with more ways to control water usage in your etcher. Most of these are not easily retrofittable to existing equipment but should be given serious consideration when new equipment is contemplated. With the right combination of add-ons, it is possible to bring the amount of water used in an etch system to almost zero.
Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.
