• Using MEMS to Control Blending at AstraZeneca
  blending in a rotating bin blender. MEMS is an acronym for Micro Electro Mechanical Systems and are tiny, micro-fabricated devices that can be found in a variety of industries including defense (munition guidance, surveillance), automotive (tire pressure, air bag sensors), electronics (projection...
• Micro Fluidic Flow and Pressure
  The footprint of mass flow and pressure sensors can be substantially. reduced using MST/MEMS. Equipment manufacturers are looking for compact. solutions to monitor or control the gas flow or pressure. within their systems. As these systems are getting smaller. and smaller, the incorporated flow...
• INDUSTRY NEWS MEMS industry gearing up for multibillion-dollar future
  , Intellisense, and Tanner Research have developed CAD/CAM systems for micromachine manufacturing. The problem with MEMS packaging, says Grace, is that "it's not very sexy." He notes, for example, that pressure sensors for measuring sulfuric acid cannot withstand the harsh chemical on their own. Decent...
