Metal Core PCB Design

Nowadays the biggest application for metal core PCB design is LED lighting products, the LED lighting products are everywhere in our daily life, such as Street Light, car lights, back light and so on, if you have chances open the LED lights bulbs, you will see most of them have aluminum PCBs inside.

So is that mean aluminum is our only choice for your metal core PCB design?

The answer is no. Metal core PCB design can also use copper(Cu core, copper core ), steel alloy and stainless steel to be the base material.

In metal Core PCB design( Metal core printed circuit board design), the reason why engineer chooses metal material instead of traditional FR4 or CEM3 PCBs is that of metal has more strong ability to dissipate components’ heat.

General speaking, aluminum is absolutely the most economic option considering thermal conductivity, rigidness, and cost, compared to copper, steel alloy, and stainless steel.

Venture metal core PCB design team has worked on thousands of LED lighting design projects by using aluminum, copper base for heat dissipation, we are trusted by thousands of electronic engineers all around the world through our100% quality guaranteed policy.

Below are the aluminum materials from well-known brands that we are familiar with:
