Custom Engineered Thermal Management Solutions
Last year we shipped over 600 different custom part numbers to OEMs worldwide! With the widest range of cold plate, cooling system, and heat exchanger technologies, and the engineering expertise to customize them to your requirements, Lytron is your one-stop source for all the thermal management components in your liquid cooling loop. We can also build cooling sub-assemblies, making it easier for you to integrate the cooling system into your product.
Innovative Thermal Management Product Development
Innovation is key at Lytron. Our responsiveness to challenging customer thermal management requirements means that we are always developing new products and pushing the limits of liquid cooling.
Engineering expertise for custom liquid cooling and thermal management solutions
Lytron’s thermal management and liquid cooling expertise is unrivaled. Our design engineers utilize an extensive toolbox of specialized software including thermal modeling software, analytical tools, solid modeling, and Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) to design high performance and cost-effective solutions to your heat transfer challenges.
We combine these software tools with an empirical database containing 45 years of data and a design philosophy that fully integrates engineering and manufacturing. This multi-faceted approach enables us to customize performance, physical envelope, material selection, inlet/outlet configuration, and additional options for any liquid cooling application.
We can also review and re-design your existing cooling loop to improve performance and reduce its size and cost. This frequently saves OEMs substantial money and valuable system real estate.
Our engineering laboratory can test any part that we make, to validate designs or test finished product. Our well-equipped, in-house test facility includes wind tunnels (up to 21k cfm), flow stations, data acquisition stations, refrigeration test equipment, particle counters, microstructure analysis system, and various flow, temperature and pressure instruments. Complete shock and vibration testing and agency approvals are available on most of our components.
Flexible Manufacturing
Our 115,000 square foot facility is designed to be flexible and agile for maximum throughput of a large number of customized parts for liquid cooling. Our lean manufacturing principles, vertical integration, and cellular organizational structure make this possible.
All performance-critical processes, such as fin-forming, machining, vacuum brazing, tube bending, etc. are carried out in-house—this way we can guarantee that our product will perform as predicted. Equally important, our production facility and QC department are housed in the same facility as our designers and our engineering test laboratory. This ensures that we maintain control from initial concept to completion, so you can be sure that all products are built exactly as the engineer intended.
Our manufacturing strategy focuses on optimizing manufacturing processes and continuous improvement through employee involvement. Our heavy investment in capital equipment for our production lines has enabled us to increase production capacity, reduce costs and lead times, and make better products, faster. Our self-managed work cells take full responsibility for product quality, on-time delivery, and cost reduction efforts.
Our in-house manufacturing capabilities include:
- CNC machining, EDM, CNC tube bending, and high-speed fin making presses.
- Advanced metal joining techniques, such as torch brazing, TIG, MIG and orbital welding.
- For our vacuum-brazed products, our equipment includes an environmentally-controlled room, two vacuum furnaces, and a heat treat furnace.
- Systems assembly lines, including several dedicated to custom liquid cooling products.
- A well-equipped QC lab includes coordinate measuring equipment, hardness testing, an optical comparator and photo-micrograph capabilities.
Quality
We have been ISO 9001 certified since 1996 and utilize lean manufacturing principles, continuous improvement, Six Sigma, and zero-defect manufacturing to ensure the highest quality and fastest delivery.
In addition to ISO 9001 accreditation, Lytron’s quality program conforms to military inspection standard MIL-I-45208A. Lytron maintains a welding program with operators certified in accordance with Navsea S9074-AQ-GIB-010/248, SAE-AMS-STD-1595 and AWS D17.1. Vacuum furnace and torch brazing processes are performed in full compliance with ANSI/AWS C3.7.
