Copper Tube Liquid Cold Plate Parts

KingKa specializes in producing high-quality copper tube liquid-cooled cold plate components, designed to meet the needs of various industries. Our cold plates are widely used in thermal management and liquid cooling solutions, ensuring efficient heat dissipation for sensitive equipment and devices.

Copper tube liquid-cooled cold plates are key components in many thermal management systems. These cold plates have copper tubes embedded in an aluminum or copper plate structure. The main function is to absorb heat from electronic equipment or machines and dissipate the heat through a coolant (usually water or special coolants). Copper is the material of choice for manufacturing these cold plates due to its excellent thermal conductivity, which enables efficient heat transfer.

At KingKa, the custom copper tube liquid-cooled cold plates we manufacture are designed according to the specific needs of our customers and are suitable for a variety of applications such as large-scale industrial equipment, medical equipment, and electronic systems, optimizing performance, durability, and efficiency.

Manufacturing process of copper tube liquid-cooled cold plates

The process of manufacturing copper tube liquid-cooled cold plates is precise and rigorous. Here is our production process:

Design phase: Our engineering team will communicate in depth with customers to understand the specific needs, including cooling capacity, size, shape, etc. Through design tools such as CAD, we provide precise design solutions, and perform 3D modeling and analysis to ensure that the cold plate can achieve the best thermal management effect in actual use.

Material selection: We use high-quality copper materials to ensure that the cold plate has excellent thermal conductivity. The selection of copper tubes is particularly important. We provide copper tubes with different diameters, thicknesses and surface treatments to meet different application requirements.

Manufacturing process: During the manufacturing process, we use advanced CNC processing equipment to ensure the accuracy of each component. The copper tube of the cold plate is fixed to the base plate by cold welding or high-frequency welding technology to ensure good heat transfer.

Surface treatment: In order to improve the corrosion resistance and durability of the cold plate, the surface is usually anodized, nickel-plated or other anti-corrosion treatments. In addition, the surface smoothness and coating meet high standards to ensure that the cold plate can work stably for a long time under high temperature or harsh environment.

Precision and testing As an excellent precision processing manufacturer in China, KingKa is well aware of the importance of precision to the performance of the cold plate. Every copper tube liquid cooling cold plate component undergoes strict quality control and testing procedures. We use advanced CNC equipment and precision testing instruments to ensure that each cold plate meets international standards in terms of size, shape and welding quality. Our testing process includes:

Dimension measurement: Use a three-coordinate measuring machine (CMM) for precise dimension inspection.

Thermal performance test: Comprehensively test the thermal conductivity and cooling effect of the cold plate to ensure that it meets the design requirements.

Corrosion resistance test: Verify the corrosion resistance of the cold plate through salt spray test and other environmental tests.

Pressure test: Perform high-pressure test on the cold plate to ensure that there is no leakage at the pipe connection.

Material and surface treatment

The material selection of copper tube liquid cooling cold plate is crucial. The copper we use has the following characteristics:

High thermal conductivity: Copper has a thermal conductivity of up to 398 W/m·K, which allows it to quickly conduct heat away from the equipment.

Corrosion resistance: After proper surface treatment, copper tubes can be used for a long time in harsh working environments, especially in places with high humidity or chemical contact.

Surface treatment methods include:

Anodizing: Improve surface hardness and wear resistance, and increase corrosion resistance. 

Nickel plating: Enhances the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength of the copper tube and extends the service life of the cold plate.

Field of use

Copper tube liquid cooling cold plates are widely used in many industries, especially in the medical industry. The following are the main application areas:

Medical equipment: In modern medical equipment, such as MRI machines, CT scanners, laser therapy equipment, etc., efficient thermal management systems are required. Copper tube liquid cooling cold plates can effectively control the temperature of the equipment to ensure its long-term stable operation.

Electronic equipment: Including computers, servers and high-power LED systems, etc., liquid cooling systems are required to control the temperature to prevent overheating.

New energy vehicles: Thermal management issues in batteries and electric drive systems are receiving increasing attention, and copper tube liquid cooling cold plates play a vital role in battery cooling systems.
