Mold components having a conformal thermal management system and methods for manufacturing same

摘要

A method for manufacturing a mold component having a conformal thermal management system comprises forming a first mold segment and a second mold segment, each comprising a surface having a profile defined by the surface. A channel pattern is disposed beneath the profile defined by the surface in at least one of the first mold segment and second mold segment. The first mold segment and second mold segment are aligned to form a network of channels. The first mold segment and second mold segment are joined together to form the mold component.
