SINGAPORE, 15 January 2019 - The Blockchain Robotics Engineering Consortium (BREC) has today announced they will utilize Enjin's blockchain platform and ERC-1155 token standard for their upcoming robotic engineering system Makerverse.
 
In addition to a virtual 3D engineering and simulation space, Makerverse will provide engineers, enthusiasts, and gamers of all levels the ability to participate in the robotics revolution within an incubated environment, with access to market as soon as a viable digital prototype is created.
 
Makerverse's engineering marketplace will permit inventors to monetize their work while using transparent, immutable blockchain technology to protect their intellectual property rights. Users will have the ability to integrate new designs and innovations by purchasing the IP from an integrated peer-to-peer marketplace and dropping it straight into any project they are developing in the Makerverse workshop.
 
The Makerverse ecosystem will showcase a virtual, collaborative engineering workshop, an expansive multi-player game experience similar to Star Citizen where players can liberally use and collaborate with their simulated robots, and a marketplace for engineers to buy, sell, and trade their parts and engineering designs. As users build, assemble, and buy their robot IP, they will be able to store these tokenized assets securely in their Enjin Wallet app.
 
This will open up the world of automated robotics to a whole new audience and provide any new robotic engineering concept with a frictionless route to market and user testing with significantly reduced risk and costs, as well as wider access to a global marketplace and community of supporters, investors, and customers outside of the Silicon Valley ‘closed-shop.'
 
 
With its possibilities to reinvent the economic incentives and organizational models of how engineering solutions are produced and sold, the long-term implications of Makerverse are significant. As the founder of BREC, Mockridge will draw upon BREC's mission as the Makerverse aims to bridge the economic incentive gap between robotics engineering within the incumbent industry verticals of major corporations and the military, and the open source robotics and software engineering community, providing everyone worldwide with a digital incubator and direct route to market.
 
World famous robotics and AI pioneer John Sokol is also excited about the prospects for Makerverse. 'I know better than anyone how challenging it can be creating new commercial robotics ventures. Even living in Silicon Valley with over 30 years of knowledge and experience, I am still limited by the few venture capital firms and viable commercial routes, which have not changed significantly since the 1980s,' explained Sokol.
 
'Likewise in education, children desperately need access to tools that will prepare them for the technological realities of the future,' Sokol continued. 'A thought like Makerverse would not only help me to unleash my dreams, but also level the playing field globally, generating a digital robotics education and incubation space for experts, non-experts, adults, and children alike—and giving them the power to learn and go out and create great products that solve real problems in their lives, communities, and industries.'
 
Makerverse will also put into action a transparent and auditable training and competency proof service for engineers, as well as a cryptocurrency accounting system, which will make the real-time spending and details of Makerverse's accounts available to the public in real time.
 
Makerverse will be built with Unity, the world's largest game development platform. As a Unity partner, Enjin's blockchain development tools will be listed on the front page of the Unity Asset Store, enabling 4.5 million Unity developers to mint ERC-1155 crypto items and manage advanced gameplay mechanics through transactions on the Ethereum blockchain.

MERLIC 4 will be released on February 15, 2019. With this release, we are approaching the strongest demands of the machine vision market:
parallelization, PLC integration, and 3D vision.
 
Parallelization
 
One highlight of the new version is the parallel processing and execution of different tools. This simplifies the implementation of multi-camera setups and allows for a more efficient use of the system's computing power. Different machine vision tasks can now be executed in one single instance.
 
3D vision tools
 
The software also offers 3D vision tools based on height images. This enables users, for example, to read embossed text, check heights, and perform other 3D machine vision tasks. For this, four new tools are included that make it possible to prepare images from 3D sensors or 3D cameras so that inspections can be subsequently carried out using MERLIC’s existing 2D tools.
 
Process integration with real-time Ethernet and fieldbus systems and recipes
Moreover, MERLIC 4 provides optimized process integration via Hilscher cifX cards of all current form factors. The software can thus communicate with common fieldbus and real-time Ethernet industrial protocols, such as EtherCAT, PROFINET, and many others, via Hilscher PC cards. This makes it possible to seamlessly include machine vision systems running MERLIC with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
 
Besides, MERLIC now supports “recipes” which allow for the rapid reconfiguration of different machine vision tasks.
 
Improved usability with optimized tool flow
MERLIC 4 provides users with an even sharper and more spontaneous user interface with a completely redesigned tool flow. Thanks to the tool flow it is possible to easily arrange and connect tools and logic elements utilizing known principles like drag&drop, copy&paste, and multi-selection. Automatisms to connect tools have been optimized. Branches between the strands (Branch on Condition) are now displayed more clearly. Using 'Triggers', the user has an additional possibility to control the program flow logically.
 
A quick search for tools has been installed, allowing for better usability. For camera parameters a quick search is available now, simplifying the setup of camera settings greatly.
 
Customized translations
Moreover, MERLIC 4 allows customized translations of standard texts in the front end for all languages.

Making two types of PCS to reduce facility cost and minimize power loss
 
  In common solar generation systems with storage batteries, both the solar panels and the storage batteries require PCS for electric power alteration.
  This model has structured component inverter circuits and controllers to combine the functions of the two PCS into one. This has reduced the number of the PCS and coupled transformers needed as well as the man-hours needed to setup them, noticing an approximately 20% reduction of cost examined to conventional systems.*3
  It also saves the solar power in the batteries without the need for AC conversion, lowering the power loss by four to five percent compared to previous models.
 
High-precision output control aids stabilizing the power grid and generation capacity
 
  Fuji Electric is a forerunner in storage battery control for wind generation facilities, with expert expertise gained by undertaking experiments and practical applications ahead of the industry. In this way, FE has developed a control model that achieves a power generation capacity variance (the measurement of power generation capacity fluctuation within a unit time period) within one percent per minute, the highest level in the world. The new product can be equipped with this control model*4, which provides support for the stabilization of power grid systems and generation capacity.

                Amidst the trees at the foot of Japan's sacred Mount Fuji, many yellow spots shine. The work suits are as yellow as the vehicles and the processing halls. The robots that develop new yellow robots around the clock are also yellow. Buzzing, her arms grip new individual parts, insert them into each other, and tighten screws. The limited supervisors can hardly tell which robot is building and which robot is being built. Therefore, the parent machines are labeled with a green band on the gripper.
 
Many of the 7000 industrial robots that leave FANUC's factories in Oshino every month will weld and paint vehicle bodies. And not only in Japan. The company exports its machines to China, North America - and increasingly also to Germany. 'A few years ago our robots were only used at Opel, but that has changed drastically,' says CEO Yoshiharu Inaba, who happens for a talk in the yellow blazer. Meanwhile, many German car manufacturers are operating the Japanese machines.
 
So far, another manufacturer has clearly dominated their factories. However, the position of Augsburg robot manufacturer Kuka is no longer accepted. 'Market shares have shifted,' says Munich automation expert Professor Horst Wildemann. One possible reason for this in the industry is the change of ownership at Kuka. Two years ago, the Chinese electronics group Midea acquired a majority stake in the company. Since then, car manufacturers have been afraid that strategically important production data could flow off to China and come to be the property of competitors.
 
In principle, expert Wildemann believes that these concerns are reasonable. However, since Midea had presented itself to strict rules when buying, there would be no concrete reason for these fears. 'The contract excludes any access to our customers' data', confirmed Kuka boss Till Reuter recently in an interview with WirtschaftsWoche.
 
But a bit of mistrust remnants. 'We take care not to become too dependent on a company that is in Chinese hands,' says a major car manufacturer. Ralf Winkelmann also acknowledges the reservations. 'I can't look into the minds of the car manufacturers,' says the managing director of Fanuc in Germany. 'But the fact is that we have been able to acquire many projects.'
 
With sales of around 226 million euros in Germany, the Japanese manufacturer set a new record last year, selling more than 5,000 robots for the first time. Its market share is thus more than 25 percent. Fanuc is already number two in Volkswagen's factories. According to an insider, the Wolfsburg-based company recently ordered just as many machines from the Japanese as from Kuka for parts of the production.
 
The reach of the Chinese for the Augsburg robot manufacturer had fix the German automotive industry on fire in 2016. The machines, which are networked via the Internet, allow the deepest insights into production. Thousands of robots constantly transmitting data about products, quantities and quality to Kuka are a perfect seismograph for the entire industry.
 
For Chinese manufacturers, who are now known by the industry as quite serious competitors of tomorrow, this info would be of hardly estimable benefits. In order to articulate their fears, a number of German car managers made representations to the Berlin Ministry of Economics in 2016. However, no car boss publicly opposed the takeover. The fact that the government in Berlin has now made Chinese company acquisitions in Germany more difficult and has just prohibited a takeover for the first time is also a consequence of the discussion at the time.
 
Never stop
 
Fanuc boss Inaba does not see himself as a profiteer of widespread Chinese scepticism. He rather consult to the high reliability of his machines. The company promises customers lifelong service, no matter how old the robots get: 'Our top priority is that factories never have to stop with our machines,' says Inaba. New Fanuc robots run at full speed throughout the night before delivery to test their functions under full load.
 
The company is little known in Germany to date. Globally, however, it has long been a power. With 400,000 machines installed worldwide, Fanuc leads in industrial robots ahead of Yaskawa (360,000 units) and ABB (300,000 units). Fanuc is also the world's largest manufacturer of milling and drilling machines used in the production of smartphone housings, for example. In 2017, sales jumped 35 percent to a record EUR 5.7 billion, with a net margin of 25 percent, well above the industry average. Kuka achieved a turnover of 3.5 billion euros last year.
 
The company name Fanuc stands for Fuji Automatic Numerical Control and refers to the origin of the company that manufactured controls for machine tools. In 1956 the engineer Seiuemon Inaba founded the company as a department of Fujitsu, since 1972 it has been independent. A little later, the Japanese also manufactured engines for machines, followed by industrial robots and small machine tools. Together with its Japanese customers, Fanuc finally expanded into China and North America.
 
'We don't want to be too dependent on a Chinese company'
A GERMAN AUTOMOTIVE MANAGER
 
The yellow robots soon encountered their way into General Motors' car factories and eventually appeared in the factories of German vehicle manufacturers in the USA and Mexico. Fanuc used the contacts to the German car manufacturers and adapted its machines to German and European standards. In the summer of 2017, the company opened a distribution centre in Luxembourg, and in the autumn Fanuc inaugurated a German development site in Neuhausen near Stuttgart.
 
Founder Inaba once attributed the global success to the extreme isolation. Robot sales are like war, he stated, and therefore had information about businesses, customers and machines guarded like military secrets. For a long time, for example, employees were only allowed to send e-mails from special terminals. Since 2015, however, his son and successor has opened up the company to some extent. 'We are not a yellow cult behind a mysterious veil,' stresses the 69-year-old Fanuc boss. Such an image would only frighten off foreign customers.
 
The signs orient to further enlargement: a new plant in Chikusei, Japan, will start trial operation in August and increase capacity to 4000 units by the end of 2019. Fanuc plans to use it to produce up to 11,000 robots per month.
 
And the Japanese offensive goes even further. In 2019 Fanuc wants to show the software platform FIELD for the complete networking of machines, robots, controllers and sensors in a factory in Germany. This should extend the concept of zero downtime, with which Fanuc has been scoring in the USA for two years. The robots then provide real-time data on their operation. This enables preventive maintenance through timely replacement of worn parts. 'We have the most advanced technology and are therefore part of the transformation to Industry 4.0,' explains CEO Inaba confidently. Fanuc does not store the data collected close to the machine in the data center of a so-called cloud provider, but processes it directly itself. This is intended to increase safety. Fanuc cooperates closely with Preferred Networks, Japan's most important start-up for artificial intelligence.
 
Inaba sees no growth limits, the market for industrial robots will be much larger in the forthcoming. For example, robots could be used in the final assembly of vehicles and could replace every second worker there in the medium term. How to do this can be viewed in a demonstration room in Oshino. There, a so-called collaborative robot places a spare wheel in the boot, a worker only has to tighten it. The 'Cobot' stops automatically if the human being comes too close. Man and machine are already working together in the Fanuc factories for testing purposes. A gripper arm lifts a heavy wire harness, guides it to a half-finished robot frame and gives the command 'Please start work' orally. Then the worker may fasten the rope. 'The machines still have difficulties with all soft materials, but technological development is currently exponential,' says Inaba. To mark the Cobots, Fanuc wraps them in green foam. Competitor Kuka cannot expect such a protective cushion.

NEWBURYPORT, MA (JANUARY, 2019) - Global Electrical Power and Advanced Materials leader Mersen is thrilled to announce the launching of the first-to-market Class RK1 Reducer Fuse product series. This advanced product is the present member of the Class J Reducer Fuse and Class J and R Fuse Reducer product offerings, extending Mersen’s solutions to help the rapidly growing North American manufacturing and process industries.
 
 
 
Certified as a Special Purpose UL/CSA Listed Class RK1 fuse, these reduced current rating fuses are manufactured to fit into the next larger size fuse holders, supplying the same high reliability performance, durability, and arc flash mitigation as standard Class RK1 fuses.
 
 
 
Reducer Fuses are ideally appropriate for start-up or newly expanded manufacturing facilities that are ramping up production and electrical power demand. Upon approaching full capacity, the reduced rating Reducer Fuses can be readily replaced by higher standard rating fuses of the same body size, thus eliminating the need to replace the fuse panel.
 
 
 
Another key benefit of the Class J and RK1 Reducer Fuses is that they are set to install and replace directly out-of-the-box, lowering production down time.
 
 
 
The Class RK1 Reducer Fuse series is available instantly, along with the Class J Reducer Fuse and Class R and Class J Fuse Reducer extras.
