KEY TECHNOLOGIES for VEHICLE HEAT EXCHANGERS
COPPER & BRASS HEAT EXCHANGERS
The classic technology in radiator manufacturing is based on copper and
brass. Flat oval tubes are formed on the Bigwood tube machine, both
folded and welded on generator. The functional elements are assembled
in the classical manner, through tin alloy soldering in specialized lowtemperature furnaces. A protective layer of paint is then applied using
either wet paint or powder paint applied in an electrostatic field.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES for VEHICLE HEAT EXCHANGERS
MECHANICALLY ASSEMBLED ALUMINIUM HEAT EXCHANGERS
Aluminum tubes are flat oval. Fins are manufactured from aluminum on flexible and fast presses, with 300-400
strokes/min. Tubes and fins are then mechanically assembled and the headers are mounted on plastic tanks by
crimping. Tubes and headers are soldered with a special adhesive.
Advantages: 40% decreased weight ; 20% improved performances; superior quality; non-polluting technology

BRAZED ALUMINUM HEAT EXCHANGERS
Starting 2008, ROMRADIATOARE has
implemented a new technology for the
aluminum radiators.
The functional elements are assembled
by brazing (soldering) in controlled
atmosphere furnace, brazing with
oxyacetylene flame and electric arc
welding wire, Al - MIG, TIG)
Advantages:
- non-polluting and simple technology
- reduces the weight and the costs
- superior quality and viability
- high rigidity of radiators
- better thermal performances
