Henkel BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP HC3000 Optimizes Thermal Performance, Reduces Cost for an Industrial Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV) ECU Customer Challenges A new electronic control unit (ECU) design incorporates a large processor IC that requires excellent heat dissipation for optimized function. The system is sensitive and outgassing minimization is necessary to avoid interference with other components. Read More
BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 2200SF Delivers Silicone-free Thermal Management for Sensitive Environments Customer Challenges A new Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) design required a robust thermal management solution with no outgassing risk. As the system can be used in a variety of machines and production environments, the thermal materials must be conducive to many conditions. The customer requested the use of a silicone-free thermal solution to avoid silicone contamination, but wanted to maintain the stress control and heat benefits generally consistent with silicone-based thermal interface materials (TIMs) based thermal interface materials (TIMs).

Automation-Friendly Liquid Gap Filler Delivers on Thermal Control, High UPH Requirements for DC-DC Power Converter Customer Challenge The customer’s new design for a DC-DC power converter required a more efficient, high-volume solution for the application of thermal management materials. For previous-generation designs, silicone pads were applied in several locations between the DC-DC converter’s printed circuit board and metal housing. Use of the pads presented several inventory and production-related issues, including: - Operator handling difficulty of the thin sheets - Manual and time-consuming application process - Sourcing of silicone pads in many different sizes and thicknesses Any new material solution had to provide similar or better thermal performance as that achieved with the silicone pads.
