Vestfold University College has established itself as the main academic centre for microsystem technology in Norway. microBUILDER is a collaboration project offering MEMS foundry services, sponsored by the European Union. The partners are Infineon Technologies SensoNor, SINTEF and Vestfold University College in Norway, thinxxs and HSG-IMIT in Germany, Tronics Microsystems and Coventor in France, BME-ETT in Hungary, and COREP in Italy. microBUILDER offers a full MEMS foundry service from design through prototype manufacturing to high-volume production of mixed technology devices mainly made from a combination of silicon, glass and plastics with functional surface layers. The microBUILDER services are focused on microfluidic devices like: Lab-on-a-chip systems/Valves and pumps/Biomedical devices/Chemical micro-reactors/Sensors for instrumentation/Gas and flow sensors. The microBUILDER consortium represent an outstanding pool of Europe's leading silicon microsystem and high precision plastic system manufacturing and design players. This unique combination of expertise gives easy access to complete solutions for development and production of mixed microtechnology devices. The process technologies of the silicon MEMS foundry services from SensoNor and Tronics will be highlighted. More info at: www.microbuilder.org
