Why Now? Thermal Evolution: Solutions Engineered Around Challenges
Heat is becoming more concentrated, more difficult to manage, and more critical to tomorrow’s electronics. Power density is increasing across computing, defense, industrial, and electrification markets. Tighter packaging concentrates heat in smaller spaces with less margin for error. Higher reliability requirements raise the stakes for every thermal decision.
What We're Building
Wakefield's Thermal Technology Center
We're impacting the industry with the addition of our Thermal Technology Center located in Nashua, New Hampshire. With this growth, we’re introducing more manufacturing capacity and more thermal technologies with a focus on engineering collaboration, rapid prototyping, new product development, and process validation while offering direct customer access to manufacturing and engineering teams.
Four New Core Capabilities:
Friction Stir Welding: High-integrity aluminum thermal assemblies and cold plate structures.
Skived-Fin Manufacturing: One-piece thermal structures with very thin, densely packed fans for heatsinks.
Tube-Based Cold Plates: Practical pathway from air to liquid cooling.
Advanced Thermal Assembly: Complete subsystem delivery.
One Integrated Thermal Partner: More, Together
We Design the Right Solution
We don’t rely on a single manufacturing method
We Develop It Faster
All engineering, prototyping, and manufacturing done within one coordinated organization.
We Produce It Domestically
Our Nashua Thermal Technology Center and existing U.S. operations are available for programs requiring supply-chain control.
We Scale It Globally
We have our wholly owned factory in China for competitive production on global applications.
We Reduce Supply-Chain Complexity
We offer consolidated technologies, engineering, qualification, and program management through one partner.
We Transition with the Technology
We support customers as cooling requirements evolve from air cooling toward liquid-assisted architectures.
