Quotes for Liquid Cooling Solutions »
Developing a turnkey liquid cooling solution requires a manufacturer like Jamcor Corp. to combine individual components into larger assemblies that efficiently move heat away from high-power computing hardware. A turnkey solution is more than a cold plate. It combines engineering, thermal design, manufacturing, testing, assembly, supplier coordination, and final logistics into a cohesive production-ready program.
A turnkey liquid cooling solution combines the custom cooling hardware, engineering, sourcing, testing, manufacturing, assembly, and logistics required to move a data center cooling design from the prototyping stage to repeatable production. Individual components that become part of a larger assembly may include cold plates, manifolds, tubing, fittings, heat exchangers, reservoirs, liquid cooling loops, and other fluid-distribution components dictated by customer specifications.
Jamcor/SJS Products has the necessary experience, equipment, and manufacturing capacity to support turnkey liquid cooling solutions for data centers. As an ISO 9001-certified manufacturer, all custom cold plates, manifolds, tubing, and other related liquid-cooling sub-assemblies are produced following rigid quality control standards and documentation practices. Additionally, Jamcor/SJS Products can also assist with:
The goal is not to just manufacture an individual cooling component, but help customers transition efficiently from concept and prototype through validation and eventually repeatable production of turnkey cooling systems.
As rack densities and processor heat loads increase, cooling becomes a system-level challenge rather than an individual component challenge. Cold plates are effective at removing heat directly from CPUs, GPUs, and other high-power components, but they represent only one portion of the larger liquid cooling infrastructure found in data centers or hyperscale facilities. A complete direct-to-chip system may also require tubing, quick disconnects, rack or row manifolds, coolant distribution equipment, and other accessory components that circulate coolant and help manage thermal loads.
At the component level, a cold plate mounts directly to a high-heat device such as a GPU, CPU, power electronic component, or other processor. Coolant passes directly through internal channels in the cold plate, absorbing heat from the source and redirecting it away from sensitive components. While multiple cold plates can be connected with tubing and fittings to cool several components within a server, this still falls short of the total thermal displacement needs of these facilities. However, liquid cooling does not have to be limited to a single component. A cooling loop can connect CPUs, GPUs, power electronics, storage devices, and other heat-generating computing devices through manifolds, tubing, and fluid-distribution systems.
Modern liquid-cooled data center systems follow this same basic idea of connecting individual systems into a larger, more efficient assembly. This broader cooling solution requires a variety of different components and assemblies that work in unison to deliver superior cooling results to high-heat and non-stop computing applications. Multiple cold plates can work in unison as part of a larger thermal management network that distributes coolant throughout servers, racks or other equipment. This makes liquid cooling a system-level solution rather than simply addressing cooling requirements at a component level.
The exact systems or sub-assemblies involved in a data center liquid cooling solution will be dictated by each customer’s system or facility designs. However, our turnkey liquid cooling solution manufacturing programs typically integrate several of the services or components mentioned below:
Jamcor’s existing liquid-cooling manufacturing capabilities include cold plates as well as broader closed-loop systems that can integrate pumps, flow controls, heat exchangers, radiators, reservoirs, tubing, and quick-connect fittings depending on the customer specifications. Additionally, in-house engineering services allow for detailed analysis of heat flux, material conductivity, channel geometry, coolant flow, pressure drop, sealing, and system interfaces.
For cold plates specifically, nearly all major design characteristics can be custom-tailored to the end application, including material selection, internal coolant channels, flow-path configuration, plate geometry, mounting interfaces, surface finishes, fittings, port locations, pressure-drop requirements, and thermal-performance targets.
At the end of the day, Jamcor/SJS Products provides a customized liquid cooling development program that revolves around the customer’s thermal and mechanical requirements rather than an off-the-shelf cooling solution that may lack necessary features or performance characteristics.
A prototype demonstrates to clients that the liquid cooling design is functional. Our production process proves that it is repeatable and delivers consistent results.
There is a vast manufacturing difference between developing a cooling assembly that performs correctly once and manufacturing hundreds or thousands of liquid cooling solutions that work in unison to deliver consistent cooling. For that reason, Jamcor/SJS Products evaluates data center liquid cooling opportunities according to the requirements of the individual program rather than making generalized claims about what the maximum rack or facility heat loads may be. When starting a turnkey liquid cooling solution development program, it’s critical to note the following engineering considerations:
Once these variables have been established, Jamcor’s engineering and manufacturing teams can develop a comprehensive liquid cooling solution that not only delivers expected performance but can be efficiently manufactured at scale. Implementation of controlled drawings, qualified suppliers, documented processes, inspection requirements, testing, traceability, and production validation all come together to support long-term production runs.
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) helps identify potential production risks before they become expensive and progress-halting problems. Jamcor will help evaluate proper material selection, component geometries, manufacturing methods, assembly requirements, tolerances, production feasibility, thermal requirements, and other major cost drivers that may arise during development.
Cooling system programs for data centers and hyperscale facilities typically require more than one supplier, which in turn bogs down production, adds costs, and extends turnaround times. A production program may otherwise require separate cold plate, machining, tubing, manifold, assembly, testing, and logistics suppliers. For mission-critical projects with tight go-live dates, any delays in production must be avoided, and working with a turnkey manufacturer like Jamcor helps circumvent these challenges.
Complex cooling assemblies can require multiple materials, manufacturing processes, suppliers, OEM components, fittings, tubing assemblies, testing procedures, and additional logistics requirements. Managing these individually places additional responsibility on the customer’s engineering and procurement teams, delaying production and placing too much trust in outside suppliers.
Jamcor mitigates these risks by coordinating the manufacturing, supplier qualification, assembly, quality control, production scaling, and logistics requirements through a consolidated program. The end result is fewer supplier relationships for the customer to manage and a clearer path from concept through production.
For a data center hardware manufacturer, this production process becomes:
Cooling Solution Concept → Engineered Design → Prototype → Validated Assembly – Full-Scale Production Runs → Delivery of Finished Systems
No confusing back-and-forth, no prolonged response times, no shipping delays moving from one vendor to another, minimal risk of lost or damaged parts, and less supplier coordination required from the customer’s engineering teams. Our manufacturing capabilities allow for drastic supply-chain consolidation that becomes increasingly valuable when cooling program designs contain custom components that must work in unison rather than as unrelated parts.
The strongest liquid cooling RFQs provide detailed engineering requirements, not simply component drawings or CAD files. Providing detailed operating and production information allows Jamcor/SJS Products to more efficiently evaluate thermal performance, manufacturability, potential risks, and major costs.
