Aluwave AB

Aluwave AB is an innovative Swedish company specialising in electronics cooling technology and we have developed a unique and versatile substrate system called Alunat™. Alunat™ is a ceramic based metal core printed circuit board, MCPCB, and is used for effective cooling of electronic assemblies.

As a complement to the material system we offer unique competence in thermal management and after numerous customer projects involving conversion from incandescent and halogen light sources to LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology we also have built an extensive knowledge in optical design. Advisory services based on our competence is a substantial part of our business.

Most of our customers are producers of LED-light or power modules.

Alunat™

Alunat™ is a substrate system designed for use as base material for printed circuit boards and it is built up by three layers. An outer copper layer for forming electrical connections, a dielectric layer with high thermal conductivity yet electrically isolating and finally an aluminum plate for cooling and heat transport. The dielectric layer is developed by Aluwave and can due to its high performence reduce the need for heat sinks and cooling fans in the design. Alunat™ has been developed and adapted in close cooperation with customers.

The main demonstrated benefits of Alunat™ are enhanced technical performance, increased reliability and service life and simplified design with reductions in assembly and component cost.

Certified solution partner

Aluwave was the first Swedish company that was certified as a solution partner in the LUXEON Lighting Network™. This network is built up by solution providers that deliver required optics, thermal management, power and integration solutions. For more info see http://www.futurelightingsolutions.com.
