Organization Overview

VPE has established a reputation as both an innovator and a reliable volume producer of mission-critical assemblies for customers in high-tech industries, including aerospace, medical, and semiconductor over 40 years of experience. VPE also designs and manufactures custom Diffusion Bonded Microchannel Heat Exchangers (MCHEs), also know as Printed Circuit Heat Exchangers (PCHEs), for a diverse range of industries. Our proven diffusion bonding process ensures parent material strength throughout the core of the heat exchanger. This allows us to produce compact heat exchangers ideally suited for extreme pressure and temperature service applications. 

Our team services a variety of customer applications ranging from chemical processing, hydrogen refueling infrastructure, power plants (CHP, ORC, sCO2 Brayton), renewable power (solar, geothermal, bioenergy), and extractions systems. The basis of our designs create a highly compact and robust heat exchanger solution with the capability of high effectiveness and low pressure drop.
