Microextrusions In The Consumer Electronics Sector

Catheryn2024-01-12T04:12:17+00:00December 16th, 2020|

A sleek, modern wooden desk with various consumer electronics neatly organized across the top. Items include a laptop, iPad, two cell phones, small stereo speakers, and headphones.

A SPECIAL NOTE ON VIRUSES AND BACTERIA IN RESPECT TO ALUMINUM SURFACES:

At this time of extreme health concern, specifiers must carefully consider how material choices may impact the spread of viruses, bacteria, and infectious diseases in healthcare facilities and other public spaces.

While much about the coronavirus is still under investigation, research has demonstrated significant differences in the longevity of viruses on various surfaces, and there are a variety of treatments that appear to further reduce the growth and survival of viruses and bacteria, enhancing the surface’s ability to destroy pathogens.

A major research study published in the Journal of Hospital Infection tested human coronavirus strains for longevity on various material surfaces and found that the virus lasted only two to eight hours on aluminum, but days on many other materials.

We encourage you to access the full white paper on this topic which can be found at AEC.org.

Are you familiar with Moore’s Law?

Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel, made a striking observation: the number of transistors on a dense integrated circuit doubles about every two years. In essence, as computer hardware grows more complex, it shrinks in size.

Consider the evolution you’ve witnessed. The first bulky smartphone you bought in 2007 pales in comparison to the sleek, powerful device you carry today. The latest models are slimmer, yet larger and far more powerful in terms of energy-per-gram than their predecessors.

Tech companies are always pushing for smaller, micro-sized innovations, and industrial OEMs must evolve with new technologies to compete.

Microextrusions represent such an innovation, offering features, tolerances, and surface finishes once thought unachievable. This advancement gives design engineers the freedom to explore new component designs that improve functionality and performance over traditional extruded parts.

We’ll now examine several consumer electronics components that utilize precision aluminum extrusions in their designs.

CPU HEAT SINKS

The CPU, or central processing unit, serves as the computer’s brain, executing arithmetic, logic, and I/O operations from other computer components’ instructions. The intense activity can cause CPUs to overheat, necessitating a heat sink for heat dissipation and cooling.

Microextrusion technology enables the creation of even more efficient heat sinks. Maintaining an optimal CPU temperature is crucial for sustained performance.

MOTHERBOARDS

Motherboards utilize microextrusions for ethernet and USB port housings, as well as for DVI, HDMI, and audio in/out ports.

This technology is vital for the CPU socket too, often incorporating a latch to secure the CPU and connect it to the motherboard.

GRAPHICS PROCESSING UNITS

High-end graphics cards, like NVIDIA’s Titan V, feature an aluminum casing that not only protects the GPU’s internals but also adds an aesthetic appeal.

HARD DRIVE BAYS

Modern hard drives come with mounting brackets and fit into an extruded aluminum bay within the computer case. This secures them during operation, which is crucial as hard drives are sensitive to physical shocks.

LED PROFILE BAYS

Microextruded profile bays serve as housings for LED lights, utilizing ultra-fine materials and plastics that not only allow the LEDs to emit light effectively but also offer protection from environmental elements.

EXTRUDED ENCLOSURES

Aluminum, a non-sparking, melt-resistant, and rust-proof metal, is ideal for enclosures, especially for consumer electronics that contain sensitive magnets. Its versatility allows customization to meet any product’s specific requirements.

About Taber Extrusions

Established in 1973, Taber Extrusions has been at the forefront of extruding rectangular billet, allowing for the production of large solid profiles up to 31 inches wide and hollows up to 29 inches. With the acquisition of a Gulfport, MS extrusion facility in 1995, Taber not only broadened its capabilities with a cutting-edge cast house and two additional presses but also enhanced its micro-extrusion and fabrication services.

Today, Taber Extrusions has completed the addition of in-house friction stir-welding capabilities, and carries on their offering of extruded aluminum components, value-added machining services and raw material supply to the North American market – making them a vertically integrated supplier of FSW panels and assemblies never before seen in North America.

Medical Microextrusions: Process, Benefits, and Examples

Advancements in medical microextrusions technology in recent years have allowed manufacturers to create high quality products for the world of medical OEMs. With a range of dimensions that can reach as small as 0.024 in., OD with up to 6 lumens, and an ID range that can reach 0.003, it’s no surprise that many OEMs are turning to companies like Taber Extrusions that can provide products within these parameters. (Source: medicaldesignbriefs.com)

In fact, micro-sized medical components are quickly becoming crucial to modern hospital safety and cost-efficiency. Whether it be for micro-tubing or micro sized components, the microextrusion process provides a number of benefits to engineers, OEMs, and patients.

In the quest to create higher quality medical devices, companies are looking to enhance existing products (including catheters and precise flow restrictors) through miniaturization, while ultimately reducing the costs of production.

Medical products that utilize microextrusion technology overwhelmingly support cardio-and-neurovascular procedures, drug delivery, IV procedures, and other procedures that require work on a micro level.

By minimizing the impact of invasive procedures, the medical industry can reduce complications, make procedures faster and more efficient, and ultimately reduce patient in-time and overall healthcare costs.

WHAT’S THE MICROEXTRUSION PROCESS LIKE?

Manufacturing the miniature components used in a medical microextrusion device poses a unique challenge for microextrusion providers. These components cannot be created using conventional extrusion machinery. Instead, they require precise, state-of-the-art equipment that allows for a high degree of precision and control over the process, as well as Engineers and technicians that possess deep knowledge of both the material and the process itself.

However, at its core, the process is similar to that of regular extrusion.

The material is either pushed forward (direct) or pulled through (indirect) a die orifice to create the shape required. Unlike macro-level extrusions, microextrusions are extruded at a very slow rate to maintain the physical properties of materials that are often delicate.

Done properly, microextrusions can create end products that have complex cross sections and preserved chemical properties.

BENEFITS TO OEMs

Lower Time-to-Market

In years previous, OEM’s requests for medical products would require them to re-outfit their existing extrusion machines, which would take more time and far less efficient. With many manufacturers outfitting themselves with microextrusion machinery, the time required to create the product is drastically reduced.

Lower Costs

As stated above, microextrusions can achieve their desired performance at fractions of the cost, due to the lower cost in materials that are used. As the development of the technology continues to improve, so to do the devices that are used in tandem with them. (i.e fibre optic cable, sensors, stints, etc.)

Psychological benefit to patients

A patient’s positive mental state can be a great asset to their recovery. Waning are the days of large, invasive medical devices that can cause patients discomfort. Smaller, less intrusive devices can go a long way. (source: Medical Plastic News)

Taber Aluminum Alloys: Straight to You!

Patton Quinn2020-05-12T17:58:44+00:00March 11th, 2020|

Aluminum billets being casted at Taber Extrusions’ upgraded aluminum casthouse in Gulfport, Mississippi.

Here at Taber, we’ve listened to market demands by updating our Gulfport, MS. casthouse, and we are now proud to offer top quality aluminum alloys made in the U.S.A. delivered to you within a short lead time.

From Aluminum Alloy to End Use

Aluminum billets (also referred to as “logs” or “ingots”) are not of practical use until they have been formed into more functional shapes and sizes. While they have already been put in the furnace, they still require a series of shaping and molding procedures such as hot and cold working, milling, and cutting.

Aluminum billets are considered fresh and raw, and they must undergo a series of manufacturing processes before they can be used for various purposes. Billets are made by means of freezing molten liquid and are later exposed to extremely low temperatures in order to allow the metal to take shape and solidify in chemical structure. The temperature manipulates the metal’s physical properties and tones its strength and durability. The subsequent processes provide the metal’s curved mold design, so it can fit inside the allotted spaces provided by other machines, which complete finishing procedures.

Taber cast house favoring a freshly casted stack of 16 billets.

Proper casting is important, as it determines the quality of the product upon going through the final processing stages. These stages influence the billet’s strength and flexibility. The billets undergo a number of tests before they are sold.
