ALUMINUM HEAT SINKS
ALUMINUM HEAT SINKS
If we talk of heat sinks, these are basically used to reduce the amount of heat in electrical appliances. Heat sinks have been used to prevent overheating and breakdown of the concerned appliance since long, but aluminum heat sinks are a new advancement. Aluminum is being used to make these sinks because of its high durability and thermal conductivity. Here is a bite on how a heat sink works and how does aluminum enhance the performance of the product.
WORKING AND AN EXTRA PUSH BY ALUMINUM
It is obvious that every electrical appliance has wires for the conduction of the current. But what most people do not know that the flowing of electric current through the wires also produces some amount of heat in the wires. How much of this heat is produced depends on what material is the wire made up of. Every metal or alloy has its characteristic resistance to the electric current flowing through it. More the resistance more will be the number collision of molecules and therefore more heat shall be produced. Heat is bad for the normal functioning of the appliance. So it is ideally required that the material being used low in electrical resistance or high in thermal conductivity.
Production of the heat is inevitable, and that’s why there is need for heat sinks. Now, aluminum is a highly conductive material to heat and electricity both, just what is needed for a perfect heat sink apparatus. As soon as the heat is produced in the appliance machinery, these aluminum heat sinks conduct them out of the whole set up and therefore prevent overheating.
Aluminum is the best material to be used to conduct heat out of the electrical circuit and that too efficiently and without incurring much damage to itself; a valuable investment to say the least.

Ecoline – the new die casting machine series
WEBWIRE – Sunday, July 26, 2009
With Ecoline, the Buhler Die Casting business unit has rolled out a third machine type after the Carat and Evolution. Ecoline has been designed with the medium market in mind and is distinguished by its ruggedness and reliability.
Buhler has been manufacturing top-quality die casting systems since 1927. With its Carat and Evolution machine series, Buhler has up to now offered a range of equipment that catered especially to the manufacturers of cast components meeting elevated requirements in terms of quality, complexity, and flexibility.
All the quality features
With Ecoline, Buhler is launching a machine type of straightforward design which boasts all the quality features of a Buhler machine: rugged, reliable, economical, energy-saving, durable, and easy to operate, or – in two words: Swiss quality. “Our new Ecoline machine has been designed with the medium market in mind,” explains Marcello Fabbroni, head of product management at Bühler Druckguss AG. “In this market segment, far more than 1000 new die casting machines go into service every year. Ecoline is therefore addressed in this environment to foundries which manufacture mainly components of small size and relatively low complexity. NonetheFor less, the quality of the cast components must be right. Ecoline satisfies these requirements. The machine is so to speak the starter model for entering the field of high-quality die casting with Buhler.”
Long service life, easy operation
As a “genuine” Buhler machine, Ecoline has all the capabilities expected of a state-of-the-art die casting machine for aluminum or magnesium. Ecoline is distinguished by its rugged and reliable engineering. “When it came to selecting the engineering materials and the manufacturing process, we were uncompromising,” says development project manager Kurt Rüdisühli. Ecoline is characterized by its high casting capacity with optimized energy consumption. The shot unit is matched precisely to the needs of the medium market and blends smoothly with the existing product portfolio of Buhler.
Much attention was also paid to easy operation. A clearly structured and easy-to-understand operating philosophy allows fast production starts with a low training requirement. A high uptime is achieved through the use of proven components. The optimized design of the hydraulic system and the targeted reduction of the number of components minimizes the maintenance and training requirements for maintenance crews.
Short delivery times, competent service
According to Fabbroni, the initial launch in Asia has already been completed, and the first machines are being manufactured. The Ecoline is available as a standard machine, but can be equipped with additional options. The locking forces range from 340, 530, and 660 to 840 tons. The delivery times for the machines are extremely short. Fast start-up by local technicians minimizes costs and ensures rapid commissioning of the casting cells.
Buhler maintains a global customer service network and local spare parts stores. Locally stationed specialist service technicians ensure fast responses whenever the need should arise. Ecoline, just as Evolution and Carat, stands for renowned Buhler quality, but with a more straightforward scope of functions and performance at an attractive price.

Harper Says Canada’s Automotive Plans Will Track U.S.A.
Harper Says Canada’s Automotive Plans Will Track U.S.A.
March 29 (Bloomberg) — Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said his government’s plans to help General Motors Corp. and Chrysler LLC will track similar efforts by President Barack Obama’s administration.
“Our plans will obviously be very close in nature,” Harper said in an interview today in Washington.
Obama’s auto task force, after assessing proposals from GM and Chrysler, will announce tomorrow whether the government will give the automakers more U.S. assistance. The companies have received $17.4 billion since December and asked for an additional $21.6 billion in aid last month.
Canada’s Finance Minister Jim Flaherty and Industry Minister Tony Clement have scheduled a press conference tomorrow at 12 p.m. Ottawa time to discuss “restructuring” in the auto industry.
Harper said Canadian officials are in close consultation with the U.S. on the automotive industry, though he declined to comment on the specifics of the discussions or the U.S. plan.
“I’m very confident the United States government has its sights firmly on the objective of a restructuring where the tough decisions are made such that the restructuring will be successful,” he said. “They do understand that if one were to pursue a restructuring without making the stakeholders make all the tough decisions, then the restructuring could well fail.”
Chrysler, seeking $2.3 billion in aid from the Canadian government, has been unable to reach an agreement with the country’s auto union to reduce costs ahead of a March 31 deadline, Ken Lewenza, president of the Canadian Auto Workers, said on March 27 on a call with reporters.
Chrysler builds minivans in Windsor, Ontario, and the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Challenger cars in Brampton, Ontario. The company has a metal casting plant in Toronto.
Reviving the U.S. auto industry will require a “set of sacrifices from all parties involved, management, labor, shareholders, creditors, suppliers, dealers,” Obama said in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation” taped March 27. “Everybody’s going to have to come to the table and say it’s important for us — to take serious restructuring steps now in order to preserve a brighter future down the road.”
