Backend > Aluminum Graphite
Schunk has developed future-oriented composites made of Aluminum Graphite (ALG) for a variety of applications.
The composites are created through the pressurized infiltration of porous graphite with liquid aluminum. These metal matrix composites (MMCs) impress with their high thermal conductivity, suitable heat-expansion coefficients and very low densities.
Thanks to outstanding mechanical workability, components can simply be produced from it according to customer specifications.
Below are some examples of products that have been produced.

Products
Soldering Fixtures
In order to keep dies, substrates or pins in the correct position during soldering. The excellent mechanical strength and stability of Aluminum Graphite facilitates the production of jigs and fixtures with highly sophisticated features, such as thin-walled designs. The additional benefit of an adapted thermal expansion behavior makes Aluminum Graphite the first choice for fixtures in backend processing.
