Texas (December 22, 2003)
Zyvex Corporation today announced
the A100 Assembly
System, a manipulation and assembly tool which can be
used with either a scanning electron or optical microscope
to assemble microscale components.
“The A100 Assembly System
represents a significant product line extension for Zyvex,”
said Robert Folaron, Director of Product Development at Zyvex.
“Customers will not only benefit from Zyvex’s
industry leading nanomanipulation capabilities for assembling
complex MEMS structures, but will also benefit from the microassembly
techniques we’ve developed through our NIST-ATP program.”
The system was developed for MEMS/Microcomponent
assembly for the Zyvex NIST-ATP project, “Assemblers
for Nanotechnology Applications and Manufacturing: Enabling
the Nanotechnology Era.” The A100 features two positioners
that grasp, move, test, and optimally position microscale
components. One positioner has four degrees of freedom; the
other has three. Zyvex will demonstrate the system at IEEE
MEMS 2004 in the Netherlands on January 27, 2004.
“Zyvex’s commercialization
capabilities continue to demonstrate our leadership position
in developing real-world, practical nanotechnology solutions,”
said Zyvex President Thomas A. Cellucci, Ph.D., MBA. “We’re
moving into 2004 with a prestigious list of satisfied global
customers in academia, government, and industry and will be
making even more product announcements in January.”
The A100 Assembly System is an
integral part of Zyvex’s mission of providing flexible,
automated manufacturing at ever decreasing size scales.
