IMS and lighting: the perfect match

IMS and lighting: the perfect match

Since the introduction of LED in the indoor and outdoor lighting sector, the need for efficient heat dissipation has become essential. For this reason, the application of the IMS (Insulated Metal Substrate) technology in the lighting field has acquired an exponentially relevant role. In particular, Silga has developed its IMS solution for the lighting sector, offering the possibility to choose between aluminum and copper, according to technical specifications and customers’ requirements.
Let’s take a look at the benefits that come from the application of IMS on the lighting field:

  • More reliability and service life since the devices can operate at lower temperatures;
  • Easy assembly process;
  • Compactness and resistance thanks to the structural support provided by the metal;
  • Lower costs;
  • More thermal and electrical design freedom, thanks to different dielectric layers and thickness available.

Silga offers continuous support during all the phases of project design and production, collaborating with our customers to elaborate special dedicated solution for the realization of IMS printed circuits on lighting applications, including double-sided IMS with plated through holes.
