Thermal Management
THERMAL MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS FOR INDUSTRIAL, PHOTONICS, AND OEM APPLICATIONS
As electronic and photonic systems push power densities higher, effective thermal control becomes a critical engineering requirement. Excess heat can reduce efficiency, drift performance, or even damage sensitive components. AMS Technologies delivers precision thermal management solutions — including air-to-air and liquid-to-air assemblies, thermoelectric modules, vapor compression systems, and advanced heat pipes — designed to maintain stable operating temperatures and optimize heat transfer. By controlling thermal gradients, minimizing hotspots, and enabling precise temperature stabilization, our solutions allow engineers to achieve reliable system performance, extend component lifetimes, and unlock higher operational power in compact and demanding designs.

CUSTOM SOLUTIONS AND EXPERT SUPPORT
AMS Technologies is a leading European provider of customized thermal management systems for applications where standard products cannot meet performance, regulatory, or integration requirements. We can either source a custom solution from our wide manufacturer network or develop and produce your tailored thermal management system in-house. Our engineering teams work with you from initial requirement definition through concept development, CFD simulation, CAD design, prototyping, production testing, and series transition — ensuring each solution is precisely engineered for your needs.
At our technology center in Kraków, Poland, mechanical design, electronics, software, and thermal engineering are integrated under one roof. This setup shortens development cycles and maintains tight revision and quality control across all stages of custom projects. Our in-house production capabilities include brazing, assembly, climate chamber testing, helium leak detection, and functional validation to ensure reliability before delivery.
We support the full spectrum of thermal technologies — including compressor-based cooling, liquid cooling, thermoelectric systems, and hybrid concepts — and help you balance performance, compliance, and long-term stability in demanding medical, analytics, semiconductor, and industrial applications. With end-to-end documentation, quality management, and deep application knowledge, AMS Technologies delivers thermal solutions that perform reliably in real-world environments. Also, when production subcontracting is required, our experienced team is ready to support.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS – THERMAL MANAGEMENT
Q1: What is thermal management and why is it important?
A: Thermal management refers to technologies and methods used to control heat in electronic, photonic, and industrial systems to ensure stable performance, avoid overheating, and extend component life. It is critical for power electronics, laser systems, battery systems, and enclosure cooling.
Q2: How do I choose the right cooling solution?
A: The correct choice depends on heat load, environmental conditions, space constraints, and performance requirements. Our experts can guide you on whether air, liquid, thermoelectric, or vapor compression technologies are best for your application.
Q3: What are thermoelectric (Peltier) modules used for?
A: Thermoelectric modules provide active temperature control and can both cool and heat small to moderate heat loads with high precision. They are commonly used for temperature stabilization in analytical instruments and precision devices.
Q4: What is the difference between air and liquid cooling?
A: Air cooling uses convective heat transfer to ambient air via fans and heat sinks and is suitable for lower to moderate heat loads. Liquid cooling uses fluid circulation through cold plates and heat exchangers to dissipate higher heat loads more efficiently.
Q5: Can AMS Technologies design custom thermal management assemblies?
A: Yes. We offer custom thermal system design, simulation support, prototype development, and integration services to address unique project specifications.
Q6: How do I request technical documentation or support?
A: Technical datasheets, integration guides, and application notes are available through our site. You can also contact our thermal specialists directly for personalized support.
Q7: What industries benefit most from these solutions?
A: Key industries include photonics and lasers, power electronics and energy, medical and laboratory equipment, telecommunications, automotive and industrial automation.
