Hi, Alums. 

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with or leads for micro-machining and MEMS molding. We are exploring molding something in relatively high volumes that has features on the order of 5~50 microns (.005~.05mm) in size. Thanks for any input and I will compile and post responses to the wiki.

I've not had them do any work for me, but my x-business partner was good friends with the CEO, Eric Miller and he always seemed like a good guy.

I actually did a bunch of mems research in undergrad. Kris Pister at Berkeley would be a great contact to reach out to - his lab works on MEMS and his company, SmartDust is/was a mems company.

Accumold in Iowa.

Not cheap, but this their sweet spot.

Bill Evans over at Bridge Design knew a lot about this technology at one point. Not sure if he is current or not, but might be worth pinging him.
