Micro-Mechatronics and System Integration are a multidisciplinary field, which offers low cost system solutions based an the principle of homogenising system components and consequent elimination of at least one material, component or packaging level from the system. These system approaches show, compared to the existing solutions, a higher functionality, more intelligence and better reliability performance. The paper presents system solutions and manufacturing technology for mechatronic systems, developed at Fraunhofer IZM MicroMechatronic Center. Special emphasis is given to novel rapid prototyping processes enabling a faster system development as well as a more consequent integration of electronics in mechanics. The mechatronic packages will be discussed in detail. Especially cost, reliability performance and according 'Design for Reliability' show the potential of micro-mechatronic solutions in automotive and industrial applications.
