What it does

Application-relevant TIM characterization from material screening to accelerated reliability testing.

The manufacturers we represent solve technically narrow—but commercially critical—problems. Nanotest provides thermal material characterization, thermal test vehicles and failure-analysis technologies. budatec provides vacuum soldering, sintering and application-specific manufacturing equipment.

Engineering problem solved

Move from assumption to controlled, repeatable evidence.

A datasheet conductivity value rarely predicts real package performance. TIMA 6 reveals how pressure, temperature, bond-line thickness, cycling and material aging change the complete thermal path.

Typical applications

Where TIMA 6 creates value.

Thermal grease, gel, phase-change material and liquid-metal screening

Gap pad, gap filler, adhesive, underfill and mold compound characterization

TIM burn-in, pump-out and thermo-mechanical aging studies

Pressure- and bond-line-thickness optimization

TIM1 and TIM2 material qualification for high-performance packages

Key technical information

Configuration overview.

Final performance and configuration depend on the selected system options, control hardware, accessories and application. The manufacturer datasheet remains the controlling technical source.

Steady-state thermal resistance measurement in accordance with ASTM D5470-17

Measured outputs

Effective thermal resistance and conductivity, bulk thermal conductivity, interface resistance, bond-line thickness

Sample diameter

Up to 38.1 mm

Force capability

Up to 900 N continuous; 1,000 N short-term

Temperature range

10–200 °C

Resolution

0.4 mm²K/W

Precision

±3% under specified conditions

Extended workflows

Pressure, temperature and BLT sweeps; automated cycling; TTV10-based application testing and package warpage investigation
