The rise of GPU-heavy AI workload is pushing the limits of air cooling, leading data centers to adopt direct liquid cooling (DLC) systems as a necessity. Yet, conventional manufacturing methods limit thermal performance, increase system complexity, and constrain design flexibility. Alloy Enterprises is redefining the future of DLC with our proprietary Stack Forging™ process, enabling customizable, scalable thermal solutions that deliver superior cooling performance and lower pressure drop over conventional cold plates. This white paper explores how Alloy’s advanced approach unlocks new possibilities for high-performance, sustainable data center infrastructure.
