June 15, 2007 – The Bennington Microtechnology Center (BMC), provider of manufacturing, packaging, and test services for MEMS sensor commercialization, has formed a process development partnership with Apogee Technology for manufacturing process design of Apogee’s Sensilica pressure sensor line. The order includes design, development, and implementation of an assembly, packaging, and test process; plus an initial pilot production run for process qualification and customer sampling.
“During our evaluation phase, BMC was extremely supportive, providing a variety of options for assembly, packaging and test. In addition, BMC is providing a comprehensive Supply Chain Management approach to manufacturing. They are taking care of all of the procurement, assembly, packaging and test activities which will free us up for what we do best: design and develop sensors,” said Apogee COO Dave Meyers.
