Packaging improves flat-panel performance

Fremont, Calif.— A proprietary, high-strength, finned aluminum extrusion frames the Shark-View series of flat-panel displays and computer systems. The finned aluminum not only gives physical support, but also increases surface area for improved system cooling. The display is mounted using Dolch designed constant pressure IsoKlips. Each clip is unambiguously captured in the extrusion providing a tightly controlled amount of pressure. As clips are added, the pressure goes up. In this manner, the appropriate pressure for a given specification can be achieved, that is, a set number of clips delivers NEMA 12/IP65 rating with another number delivering NEMA 4/IP66.
