How DBX technology works

DBX heat exchangers are built using diffusion bonding, a solid-state metal joining process where atomic diffusion under heat and pressure forms a seamless, defect-free structure. The result is unmatched durability, heat transfer performance, and resistance to thermal and mechanical stress.

Key process stages

  • Material preparation - precision layered materials ready for bonding
  • Bonding under heat & pressure – uniform atomic diffusion in a vacuum or inert atmosphere
  • Solid-state structure formation - no welds or fillers, just pure strength
  • Final testing & quality control - ensuring thermal, mechanical, and structural integritys.
