Ever wondered how a solid block of aluminum becomes a high-performance heatsink? <br /><br />In this video, we take you inside the factory to reveal the skiving process —a precision machining technique that forms ultra-thin cooling fins directly from a single piece of metal.<br /><br />Skived heatsinks are made from one continuous block of aluminum. Sharp blades “shave” out evenly spaced fins with high thermal contact efficiency, maximizing heat dissipation for power electronics.<br /><br />Skiving Process Highlights:<br />- Material: 6063/6061 aluminum billet <br />- Fins formed without welding or soldering <br />- Blade-controlled cutting ensures fine pitch (down to 0.2mm) <br />- High thermal conductivity and mechanical strength <br />- Ideal for medium-to-high power thermal management<br /><br />Common Applications:<br />- Electric vehicle motor controllers <br />- Power inverters / DC-DC converters <br />- Industrial automation equipment <br />- LED drivers, power supply enclosures<br /><br /> Filmed at an OEM aluminum processing factory in China, where we manufacture custom heatsinks for global clients.<br /><br />📩 For sourcing inquiries, technical drawings, or OEM/ODM support, please contact sophia@glarysh.com.<br /><br />📌 Subscribe for more factory process insights: <br />Every week, we post real manufacturing content covering CNC, SMT, metal casting, and thermal solutions.<br /><br />👉 Don't forget to like, share, and comment what you'd like to see next!<br /><br />Shanghai Glary<br />www.glarysh.com
