Production technologies for micro systems

Ziel

Production4µ aims at enabling high precision manufacturing process chains to respond flexibly, cost-effectively and lot size adjusted to the need of micro system suppliers for the production of complex shaped and functional µ-parts; here: of µ-glass part s and for the use in optical and micro-fluidic systems. Objective of the Production4µ project is the investigation and application/verification of radical new production concepts, utilising new methodologies and standards as well as radical new manufacturing processes and automation technologies to transfer lab-scale prototype production into industrial scale production of µ-glass-components. Breakthroughs will be created in the developing of - reliable high volume µ-manufacturing technologies based on precision glass moulding, - radical new systems for automated handling and alignment of µ-components - new standards for µ-production planning, cost estimation and 'design for manufacturing'.

High potential applications for µ-systems related products are to be found in the diverse automotive, biotech, medical and consumer applications and are current drivers of future economic growth for European industry. Increasing people's desire in mobility, communication and health forces the addressed sectors to realize product functionalities and performance. Main enablers are µ-optic as well as µ-fluidic components based on advanced glass material, due to its superior properties. If these components can be produced in high volumes to acceptable costs Europe faces an enormous economic potential, for example in optical systems integration for cars or mobile phones. However, despite of the economic potential the condition for industrial scale µ-production of such systems does not yet exist.
