2018-12-12 – Thermal Design – Why Bother? – Highlight

The material presented in this video are some highlights from NADCA’s online webinar – Engineering Dies: Thermal Design – Why Bother. This covers WHY the thermal design is important. It introduces the simple, but important variables such as surface area and the amount of heat that needs to be controlled. It has been clearly shown that using excess die spray to control die temperature usually results in lower die life, higher variation in quality day-to-day and increases gas porosity. Thermal design is important but can be simple.
