Light-Gauge Metal Foil Converting: Embossing
Service Detail from JBC Technologies, Inc.

Embossing and heat shields – it just makes sense. For even their most challenging thermal management projects, more and more designers and engineers are turning to alternative lightweight materials like light-gauge foils and foil-faced adhesive tapes.
And embossing has become a standard part of the heat shielding package.

Light Gauge Metal Foil Embossing for Heat Shields
Why Embossing for Metal Foils?
Embossing is when a metal roller imparts a textured surface to the foil. Embossing adds a third dimension or Z-axis (pattern of bumps) to the foil.
Embossing the metal foil of a heat shield provides four main benefits:
Better Formability • Increased Stiffness/Reduced Weight • Stronger Acoustic Insulation Properties • Improved Aesthetics
