High Power, Harsh Conditions

From welding machines to battery charging systems, motor drivers to power converters, industrial electronics require high-performance packaging solutions, both thermally and mechanically.

Björn Tech brings Pada Engineering's cold plates and heat sinks, Sheen's thermal interface materials, YCC Fan's AC fans, POLYRACK enclosures and panel PCs, and Innodisk's industrial storage, memory, I/O and APEX AI systems together as one system. From the power stage of a welding machine to the operator panel and quality inspection beside the line, every component is chosen for the same machine.

Industrial Requirements at a Glance

Areas of use Welding machines, battery charging systems, motor drives, power converters and laser systems
Operation Continuous duty at high power, often around the clock
Environment Heat, dust and electrical noise on the shop floor and in control cabinets
Power stage IGBT and SiC power semiconductors with high heat density
Cooling Liquid cold plates, extruded aluminium heat sinks, thermal interface materials and AC fans
Mechanics Die-cast enclosures up to IP65, DIN rail modules, embedded enclosures and panel PCs with an IP65 front
Connectivity Isolated 1 GbE and 2.5 GbE; keyboard, screen and USB over Ethernet
Scope of supply Cooling, enclosures, industrial PC components, connectivity and AI systems from one supplier, with custom design support

What Industrial Electronics Faces

  • Heat in power electronics

    IGBT and SiC power semiconductors in welding machines, motor drives, power converters and laser systems generate intense heat, which has to reach the cooler through an electrically insulating interface.

  • Heat build-up in cabinets

    Drives, chargers and controllers run for whole shifts in closed cabinets; without planned airflow, the heat stays inside with the electronics.

  • Mechanical protection

    Field and factory electronics need robust enclosures with a suitable protection class.

  • Electrical noise and surges

    Welding arcs, motor drives and converters create interference, ground loops and surges right next to the control electronics.

  • Operation at the machine

    The computer sits in the cabinet, but the operator works at the machine: screens and input devices have to withstand dust and water, or reach the operator from a distance.

  • Reliable process data

    Industrial PCs log process and quality data around the clock; storage and memory have to withstand continuous writes and sulfur in the factory air.

  • Quality control and AI on site

    Defects and wrong labels have to be caught beside the line, and production knowledge should be usable on site without sending data to the cloud.

Packaging and Cooling for Power Electronics

In industrial power electronics, reliability is decided where heat and electrical stress are highest. That is why we plan the system layer by layer: Pada Engineering's liquid cold plates and extruded aluminium heat sinks take the losses of IGBT and SiC power semiconductors, with engineering services and custom design support; Sheen's thermal films carry that heat across an electrically insulating interface; and YCC's AC fans move it out of the device and the cabinet.

POLYRACK's die-cast enclosures, DIN rail modules and EmbedTech platform protect the control electronics, and PanelPC 2 brings operation to the machine. Innodisk SSDs, DDR5 memory and isolated network modules keep industrial PCs running, and APEX systems add defect detection beside the line and generative AI in the control room.

The result: industrial electronics manufacturers and system integrators get thermal management and mechanical packaging from one engineering partner, with one bill of materials.
