Advanced materials enable high-performance cooling, thermal management, and electrically insulating structures in power electronics, mobility, and energy systems — yet manufacturing fine internal channels, high-aspect-ratio features, and dense multilayer structures at industrial scale remains a major challenge for conventional forming technologies.
This session demonstrates how additive manufacturing based on screen printing enables the production of fine-featured cooling structures with high dimensional accuracy, dense microstructures, and industrial throughput. Exentis will present production data on channel resolution, layer-to-layer alignment, and performance, including case studies of compact heat exchangers, cooling substrates, and multilayer material components, as well as transferability from Exentis’ lab to industrialised inline solutions, for scalable manufacturing of functional ceramic cooling components.
Attendees will gain practical insights into design rules for fine structures, scalable process windows, and benchmark studies versus conventional technologies. The presentation bridges laboratory innovation with industrial manufacturing and shows how additive manufacturing processes can move beyond prototyping toward true series production of functional thermal management components.
