In this tour, we look at the manufacturing of water blocks, fittings, reservoir tubes, acrylic housing, POM components, terminals, and CPU/GPU blocks. Bitspower manufactures thousands of fittings per day in Changhua, Taiwan, and allowed us to visit to film the process. This process will be roughly the same for factories that make other water cooling components, as they all use similar CNC machines. We've toured factories in China before that have similar setups, just for closed-loop liquid cooling. Watch our video on how AIO coolers are made here: • How PC Liquid Coolers ...

I worked in a plastic recycling factory with similar looking bags filled with granulated plastic. So I can confirm that those big bags can contain 1000 kg of material. Tho it wasn't rare to see bags with 1200 kg of plastic in them. Open bag that you can see in the middle @07:02 by it look's to me like it could have about 400-550 kg. The rest of the bags that you can see stacked on left side look inefficiently packed and there is wasted space left in them. Then again their supplier might have asked them to fill the bags to a certain point for what ever reason. Keep in mind that I worked with granulated plastic and what I say might not 100% apply to their work.

Those metal rods look a lot like brass, instead of copper. Brass is easily the most common material for water handling fittings in pc cooling and other consumer products. Brass is the common material because it's much cheaper and waaay easier to machine than copper. The blocks ofc need to be copper for thermal properties.

thank you for the great content. few terms for future usage: cnc chamber = cnc milling machine, also cnc chamber = cnc lathe (latter is the one where the stock spins, former the one where the stock is stationary). oil = coolant. Intresting to see how seemingly unoptimal part of the process is. It might be that the amount of parts run on the milling machines is so low that it doesn't require pallets and fixturing to make it economically viable. The lathes with the bar feeders seem to be much more optimized.

As a former CNC mill operator and programmer (at one of the biggest screw/bolt maker for the car industry, Bulten AB) I found this quite interesting. I’d love to see more about the actual CNC machines and their software. I used GibbsCAM 12, which was a hot mess filled with bugs and crashes. The workstation was pretty dope thou. Handled games pretty well during the 2+ hour jobs xD EDIT: I operated a Mazak Variaxis 500-5X II.

I now better understand the price of their fittings, but I still hate how expensive they are compared to smething like alphacool.

Don't forget that the more expensive CNC machines can also turn the 'subject' instead of relying on the operator to do so. They automatically infer the 0,0 point instead of using templates. However labor costs is low in Asia, so it's way cheaper to let a operator flip the subject than buying a machine that costs twice as much (and it also bigger).. In the late 90s the IT company I worked for had a CNC factory customer that produces specialized items for various German car manufacturers. These items had very low tolerances. Parts that were allowed some larger tolerances were produced in Asia. The German luxery car manufacturers have more made in Europe than Asia than factories that produce for the common people. It's very simple, a car that costs 60.000 euro is easier to produce in Europe than a car that costs 20.000 euro.. However most of our customers were active in the offshore business..

doesnt look like they have 5 axis machines. Those would cut down machining times dramatically because you dont have to do multipass milling on an qngled surface but you can tilt/rotate the 4th/5th axis and just use a facemill ps. if you think you can only machine one piece at a time on a 5 axis, there are pyramid clamping things or Tombstones where you can machine more pieces at a time
@machinist7230
@machinist7230 4 года назад
Tombstones are generally used for high density workholding in 4 axis horizontal machining centers, HOWEVER, there are "pyramids" for mounting multiple centering vises in a 5 axis machine(both trunnion machines and swivel heads). See 5thaxis.com for examples - you'll note that they're in the "decent used car" spectrum in terms of price.

Are you sure the fittings are copper and not brass? What is the benefit to using copper over brass or even stainless?

While there is inevitably a markup in all parts, this really puts the often expensive seeming price of custom loop components in light and shows that time really is money. I never thought about it taking a half hour to machine a single cold plate.

explains why I've never had a Bitspower fitting fail. they seem to have QA nailed down well 20+ fittings from 10 years ago still work without issue.

In my country Bykski & Barrow is the way to go for custom watercooling, the part relative cheaper than EKWB or Bitspower 1:because most EKWB or Bitspower part reseller put alot of markup price & 2:part is just hard to find in general.. for Bykski & Barrow alot part sell in aliexpress and free shipping as well, and the price is good for custom watercooling part like one of my favorite Bykski XPR A-MC Cpu block it cost around 40-41 dollar and now discount around 30 dollar

Another advantage of Bykski is that they do full cover GPU waterblocks (GPU die, VRM, VRAM) for many more models than EK that offers a universal waterblock but not full coverage.

Nice, can’t wait for your U14s review to confirm my bias. Gpus seem to benefit a lot from aios or open loops. Hope NZXT brings back the kraken bracket for ampere.
@qiyuxuan9437
@qiyuxuan9437 4 года назад
Gpu definitely benefit more from water cooling, due to direct die contact with water block, while also having a much larger contact area. I change a FE GTX1080 to a AIO cooler, and it can easily maintain a sub 60 degree temp while maintain a higher clock, the stock blower cooler was so bad, the GPU thermal throttling while running over 80 degree...For CPUs, unless you delid and use liquid metal, you wont see nearly as much improvement using watercooling.

Great vid and super interesting. Would of liked if ya'll locked down the auto focus when showing certain parts like the fitting being machined. Was very interested in the fitting part but kinda defeated the point of them turning off the oil when half of the recording was outta focus.
@flikflak24
@flikflak24 4 года назад
Sorry to correct you/the information you where given by them but the Oil is not to cool Anything ( mostly because the optimal cutting temps/reformation "zone" As it's called is 810 degree C°) The Oil is to Lubricate the tool's and remove "chips" So you don't recut the material that you already Cut I work as a Industrial technician witch setup. Program and run's mashines like them P. S. Would love to go to there factory and show / teach them how to make the parts faster and and with more parts in the mashines at the same time
