Price of carriage from the UK

Hi Stephano,

I checked the price to send a small package from the UK to Italy and it is 20 UK Pounds so about 23 Euros. Not cheap and this is the slow service based on a package less than 1Kg,

On top of this is the actual machining cost. I can provide the contact details for a machine shop if none of the other ideas work out.

Let me know if you want any more help.

Thanks a lot.
 
Looks like I might be the only one with the right manufacturing method for the size and quantities. Let's see whether Jeff can CNC the profile for TO92. ;)

Someone asked about the pic in post'15.
That was NOT the heatsink, but a heat spreader to provide a large flat surface to connect to a large heatsink, which sits on top and covers the entire PCB. I have over 8W to dissipate in that design.

hey Stefanoo,
I would be happy to take a look at the autocad file and see if I can make these parts for you. I would love to help a fellow DIY! I have CNC capabilities so it might not be such a big deal. email me.

Hi mrkahn,

I have sent you the file few days ago.
I was wondering if you received it and If you had,by chance, a chance to take a look at it.

Many, many thanks.
 
Hi
There are many companies here in the UK can can provide this service.

Hi BarryBlue, everyone...

I am looking for companies that could make custom heatsinks but I cannot find the right one.

Could you suggest a couple of those?

My heatsink is not for an audio system but computer, I need a custom heatsink for my graphics card and cannot find a place where I could get this done.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Hi bcmbob but that site seems to be specialised on water cooling only, I cannot find anything interesting to what I need.

And this is what I need...

I have a fanless system where all sources of heat are cooled by taking the heat through cooper pipes from the heat source (CPU for instance) to the computer box. The computer box is made of solid steel.

I changed the graphics card, which came with proper pipes, for a different card, the Nvidia Quadro NVS 450.

The problem is that I cannot attach the pipes to the heatsink that comes with this graphics card for which I would need a custom made heatsink where |I could attach those pipes.

So that's the question... Do you guys know where could I get my design of a heatsink to be made of aluminium.

Thank you everybody.
 
Hi folks,

I would like to know if anybody can suggest me a store or whoever can offer a small volume production CNC tooling service.
I need to manufacture a simple heatsink which is small cube with a "pocket" for 8 jfets (TO-92 pack) in line inside.
The cube a little wider, of course, than the jfets and and inside is a juggled task for the 8 jfets which are placed in line same orientation, one by another.
I can supply the drawing in autocad 2004's format.
I only need 4-10 parts for now.
I am googling to see if there is any business who does this small production but I was unable to find any up till now.

Thank you all for your attention.

Any suggestion is very welcomed.

Best.
