Copper Tube Cold Plate

Copper Tube Cold Plate

Copper tube cold plate embeds seamless copper tubes into aluminum substrate via pressing or casting. Coolant flows inside copper pipes to take away concentrated heat efficiently owing to copper’s superior thermal conductivity. CNC drilling is available for customized mounting holes after molding. With reliable leakproof performance and low production cost, it is commonly applied in new energy batteries, automotive ADAS modules and high-power industrial inverters.

Product Features
 

Press-Fit Embedded Copper Tube Structure

Seamless copper tubes fully pressed and locked inside the aluminum substrate, tight contact eliminates air gaps to minimize thermal resistance between tube and base.

01

Dual-Material High Heat Transfer Design

Aluminum base provides large flat contact surface for heat sources; copper tubing offers outstanding thermal conductivity for fast liquid heat exchange.

02

Custom Post CNC Machining Support

After cold plate forming, we complete drilling, tapping, counterbores, positioning brackets and edge profile processing to match customer PCB and module mounting layouts.

03

Fully Sealed Leak-Proof Construction

Precision tube embedding process avoids coolant leakage; every finished unit undergoes air pressure leak testing before delivery for long-term stable operation.

04

Uniform Flat Heat Contact Surface

Flat milled top plate ensures full close contact with batteries, power chips and inverter modules, preventing local hotspots across the whole cooling area.

Advantages
 
01/

Lower Production Cost

Press-fit embedding process cuts complex welding/brazing procedures, reducing overall manufacturing lead time and cost for mass orders.

02/

Ultra-Low Thermal Interface Resistance

Tight mechanical compression between copper tube and aluminum base maximizes heat transfer efficiency, outperforming loose cast-in tube cold plates.

03/

Excellent Long-Term Leakage Resistance

No welding seams along the cooling loop, eliminating hidden leakage risks common in welded liquid cold plates under continuous thermal cycling.

04/

Flexible Full Customization

Adjust tube flow paths, mounting hole positions and external connectors freely via in-house CNC machining without outsourcing secondary processing.

05/

Lightweight & High Structural Rigidity

Solid aluminum base plate is lighter than full copper cold plates while maintaining enough rigidity for battery pack and inverter heavy load installation.

06/

Wide Compatibility With Coolants

Copper tube design supports water, glycol mixed coolant and low-viscosity industrial cooling fluids without corrosion risk.
