Edmonton, Alberta, March 10, 2004 - Micralyne Inc., a developer and OEM manufacturer of MEMS components, reports great progress in its development of polymer MEMS manufacturing methods. Until recently, polymer MEMS devices have been relatively simple microfluidic chips. Micralyne Inc. has recently been taking these simple devices and transforming them into more complex tools that include such elements as heaters, sensors and electrodes. These integrated thin film components change a static device into an active component that can interface with the macroscopic world. If you are interested in having Micralyne provide thin film metallization on polymer MEMS or microfluidic devices, please contact us.
About Micralyne
Micralyne develops and manufactures microfabricated and MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems)-based products. Micralyne is one of the largest independent companies in the world that manufactures MEMS in high volumes. MEMS technology is built on the premise of making industrial components smaller, faster and less expensive and facilitates radical improvements in the miniaturization of electronic and mechanical devices. These types of devices are used in many industries including communications, automotive, aerospace, and life sciences. More specifically, Micralyne’s micron-scale solutions (i.e. 1000 microns = 1 millimetre) are found in automotive emission sensors, optical switching technology in telecommunication networks, lab-on-a-chip devices for drug discovery, and commercial press equipment for printing today’s most popular magazines. Micralyne is a profitable and growing company headquartered in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
