Copper AM wavy-ridge thermal sample
Single copper square sample with a wavy ridge thermal top — for discussing as-built copper surface textures, powder removal in ridge valleys, and which faces stay as-built versus milled.
Texture-sample framing
Wavy ridges change powder retention and contact area even when the outer envelope is a simple square.
- Call whether ridges face the fluid, the TIM, or air
- Separate as-built ridge tops from gasket faces that must be flat
What we will not invent
No chip thermal-resistance numbers, no OEM chip brands, and no invented flow rates on this page. Bring those expectations on the RFQ if you have them.
