This is a heat sink made of AlSi10Mg.
A customer approached us with the request, "Can we utilize the high degree of design freedom of metal 3D printers to improve the heat dissipation of heat sinks?" In response, we began discussions with the customer from the design stage and achieved high functionality by integrating heat dissipation fins and cooling pipes. Due to the complex structure, the difficulty of fabrication is very high, and normally, successful fabrication would require effective use of supports. However, we were able to realize this through our know-how and technical capabilities. Togane Metal Industry Co., Ltd. actively proposes the transition from existing manufacturing methods to metal 3D printing, providing various benefits to customers, including the realization of complex shapes and high functionality, as well as reduced lead times, weight reduction, and process consolidation, as seen in this case. We have numerous achievements not only with AlSi10Mg, SUS316L, and maraging steel but also with special materials such as Invar and iron-based and copper-based alloys. If you are struggling with shape constraints of existing manufacturing methods or considering a transition to metal 3D printing, please feel free to consult with us.

Applications/Examples of results
Overseas, the practical application of metal 3D printers has advanced, and they are widely used in industrial product manufacturing. However, it is said that their utilization in mass production is still not progressing domestically. On the other hand, in our case, we have targeted the market where metal 3D printers can be most effectively utilized and have engaged in proposal activities, resulting in numerous adoptions as industrial product components. When combining prototypes and mass production, we have achieved over 5,000 instances. Various companies in Japan also own metal 3D printers, but our strength lies in being a foundry manufacturer, as well as our expertise in machining, welding, and heat treatment, allowing us to propose a comprehensive approach to manufacturing. Leveraging the technologies and networks cultivated through our existing business, we can accommodate various post-processing needs. Without being tied to specific methods, we propose the most optimal manufacturing processes for complex-shaped components in terms of cost and lead time.
