Significant Benefits of 3D Screen Printing for Manufacturing Micro-Channel Heat Exchangers

Abstract:

Micro-channel heat exchangers (MCHXs) manufactured by Zess & Lin Industries provide highly effective heat transfer and are used in a growing number of critical applications. MCHXs consist of stainless steel or high temperature Nickel-based alloy plates with micro channels that are chemically etched or machined into each plate. These traditional extractive manufacturing methods of chemical etching and machining used in manufacturing MCHX plates are difficult and costly as a large percentage of expensive alloy is lost during manufacturing.
