Kane Robotics Launches Smart Cobot Solution for Sanding, Grinding, Finishing in Aerospace Manufacturing

Kane Robotics

Kane Robotics today announced the launch of its first collaborative robot (cobot) solution, the GRIT TM cobot. Developed by aeronautics and composite experts, GRIT dramatically improves productivity, reduces health risks, and solves labor shortages for aerospace maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) companies. The first cobot solution innovated for composites sanding, Kane’s GRIT TM cobot works alongside humans to perform labor-intensive sanding, grinding and polishing for materials removal within any size and type of manufacturer. Unlike traditional industrial automation, GRIT solutions are reconfigurable for different tasks. With three sizes, the cobots can accommodate a wide variety of jobs. They are accessible even for smaller manufacturers; a GRIT system requires an average investment of just $100,000, with customers reporting a 100% return on investment after six months. “Aerospace and defense manufacturers require extremely precise sanding, grinding, polishing and finishing work to ensure parts meet regulatory requirements and achieve top performance,” says Kane Robotics COO Alan Hiken, a composites expert with a 30-year career in aerospace engineering. “GRIT cobot solutions provide the highest-quality work and help save teams from injuries and illness by filling repetitive, labor-intensive jobs.” The GRIT helps aerospace manufacturers complete jobs such as: Sanding primer from interior aircraft components Polishing fighter jet canopies after thermoforming to remove orange peel and achieve optical clarity Removing coating and sanding surfaces for paint preparation or repairs on helicopter main rotor blades. GRIT is the second generation of Kane’s collaborative robotic solutions. Manufacturers in aerospace, defense and other industries recognized impressive results from the first generation, including: Exponentially increased productivity. A 12-hour sanding job can turn into 3.5 hours when done by a GRIT cobot. Moreover, cobot sanding is precise and uniform, minimizing the need for further detail work before starting second-phase operations. Reduced health risks. Kane’s GRIT cobot reduces repetitive injuries to wrists, elbows and shoulders and respiratory and ocular illness caused by airborne particles. Companies report significant savings in healthcare costs. Filling job vacancies. U.S. manufacturers have difficulty attracting new workers, especially for taxing work like sanding. GRIT cobots can help fill those roles and lessen the need to replace retiring workers as the manufacturing workforce ages. A GRIT cobot can free veteran workers to do what they do best – operations that require higher-order reasoning and decision-making. GRIT solutions are designed for ease of use and require no specialized expertise to install, operate, or program. The practical system is compact and mobile and plugs into 110V electrical outlets. It can be operated by staff technicians and be up and running in almost any manufacturing facility within hours or days rather than months or years. Because GRIT solutions are quick to set up and operationalize, they realize near-immediate ROI. “With GRIT, manufacturing teams can simultaneously improve their productivity and solve safety and labor shortage challenges,” says Kane CEO John Spruce. See a live demonstration of Kane Robotics’ GRIT cobot at booth #4806 at the MRO Americas Aviation Week exhibition, April 18-20, 2023. Contact Kane for more information at https://kanerobotics.com/contact/. About Kane Robotics Since its founding in 2019, Kane Robotics has collaborated with manufacturers in aerospace, defense and other industries to simplify material removal processes through automation, creating the first collaborative robot (cobot) built specifically for composites sanding. Kane’s reconfigurable and easy-to-operate cobots work alongside humans to perform safe and precise sanding, grinding and finishing. The compact, mobile and affordable cobot solutions are accessible to all sizes and types of manufacturers and offer a pragmatic way to dramatically increase productivity, improve safety and fill job vacancies for dangerous, repetitive and labor-intensive tasks. With extensive experience in aerospace and defense, Kane’s industry experts are considered some of the top minds in the world for automation in sanding and composites.

Alana and Ramon Alvarez Grow Minuteman Press Franchise in Colorado Springs

Minuteman Press International Inc

Alana and Ramon Alvarez have owned their Minuteman Press franchise in Colorado Springs since August of 2019. Minuteman Press in Colorado Springs has been operating for 15 years since 2008 and is located at 6870 N. Academy Blvd., Colorado Springs, CO, 80918. After taking over the business nearly 4 years ago, Alana and Ramon have consistently grown their business and increased sales “by nearly 400% since we started,” according to Ramon. Journey to Minuteman Press Alana and Ramon “met at work 31 years ago” and the rest is history, according to Ramon. He shares, “Alana is my forever partner. After leaving the company, we lived throughout the West Coast and South America throughout our time together. I continued to work in the corporate world and Alana managed our household and led the raising of our children.” In 2019, it was time for a change. Ramon says, “Fast forward to August 5, 2019. That is when we began our small business journey, owning our Minuteman Press center in Colorado Springs. Minuteman Press International RVP Jack Panzer was instrumental in helping us acquire this existing location, which has been doing business in Colorado Springs since 2008. Jack helped us throughout the purchasing and on-boarding process, just as he does now in supporting us to grow along with excellent field support talent like Todd Golberg at the time (who is now RVP in New England), and now Sky Hittle.” Operating the Business & Ongoing Support Nearly 4 years after purchasing the business, Ramon remains excited about working with Alana, sharing: “Today, Alana and I continue commuting to our business together, excited to spend quality time with each other while creating outstanding experiences for our clients, just as we did 31 years ago when we first met. We are fortunate to be serving many clients in the Pikes Peak Region, having grown our sales by nearly 400% since we started.” Specifically, Ramon says, “Our small business has evolved into a one-stop shop for our clients, providing design, print, promotional items, direct mail, and more! We are now providing vehicle and window graphics, along with building sign replacements. We won’t stop there, ensuring we continue to listen to our clients, and treating each of them like a VIP. In spite of the digital transformation that marketing has experienced, print is everywhere, and continues to be leveraged by businesses launching or striving for growth. Print simply looks different today, with a critical role in creating an omnichannel experience for clients, like adding QR codes to drive the client’s audience to a website, scheduling form, or otherwise.” As he reflects on what it’s been like to transition from the corporate world to small business owner, Ramon says, “Having led large teams with large budgets in the Americas, I felt that being a small business owner would be relatively easy. It’s actually the hardest role I’ve ever had, yet it’s the most rewarding by far.” Ramon explains how the support he’s received as a Minuteman Press franchise owner has helped him along the way: “Minuteman Press has been supporting us in many ways, setting us up for success. In my career, I was previously an operations executive and so I wanted a proven brand, a proven system, and a proven structure to allow us to succeed as small business owners. Minuteman Press International has given us all of that.” He continues, “The Minuteman Press FLEX software, which allows us to connect with our clients for quoting, invoicing, work orders, marketing, and more, has been invaluable. The support team is also outstanding in urgently reacting to our needs, as they have extensive experience and an aptitude to serve.” Marketing & Being Active in the Community When it comes to marketing the business, Ramon shares, “No silver bullet exists in marketing our small business, and Minuteman Press has supported owners successfully who may not be experts in the industry. We focus on providing outstanding experiences for our clients through our high-performing team, delivering quality, speed, and reliability. Every customer is a VIP. We leverage direct mail, use digital marketing, networking, and other marketing opportunities, just like businesses in all industries do, focusing heavily on our target audiences and key clients.” Being active in the community is also key to Alana and Ramon’s local outreach efforts. Ramon says, “We also engage with our community, advocating for local business growth through various volunteer efforts. I serve as the current Chair of the Board of Directors for the Colorado Springs Chamber and EDC, on the Board of Directors for the Southern Colorado Better Business Bureau, on the Board of Directors of the Colorado Springs Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Consult for the Pikes Peak Region Small Business Development Center, and help drive economic development in our region for our local businesses any way I can.” Ramon concludes, “By helping our community of businesses prosper, opportunities for prosperity are available for all.” Minuteman Press in Colorado Springs is located at 6870 N. Academy Blvd., Colorado Springs, CO, 80918.

Ultrack Enters Acquisition Agreement with Successful Medical and Wellness Company

Ultrack Systems, Inc.

McapMediaWire --Ultrack Systems Inc. (OTC: MJLB ), a total fleet-management GPS tracking and monitoring solution provider, is pleased to announce that Ultrack has entered into a formal contractual agreement with Supreme Products to both acquire and market their "Pet Tracker" product which is a wearable GPS device for pets. Notably, Carl Lamonte from Supreme Products will join Ultrack as an Officer of Brand Development Officer Earlier this year Ultrack noted in a release that the Company is actively seeking joint-venture relationships and/or acquisitions within recession proof sectors. Today's announcement is the initial fulfillment of that goal with more planned to come. With years of experience, resources, and relationships within the GPS industry, it makes sense for Ultrack to expand to the developing vertical market of pet tracking hardware and software. Currently, the global pet market is worth roughly $261 billion with the sub "pet care" market coming in at around $79 billion as of 2021. Current forecasters project that the U.S. pet market alone is projected to grow to $325 billion by 2028 with a projected sustained growth of pet ownership up to 14% by 2030. (Source: https://www.hepper.com/pet-industry-statistics-us / ) Ultrack CEO Michael Marsbergen commented: “Pets are big business and Millennials and Gen Z are leading the way for the foreseeable future. We believe that pet ownership and pet care is a recession-proof industry because people are simply not going to give up the things that they truly love, no matter how hard the economy gets hit. I'm delighted that Mr. Carl Lamonte will be joining Ultrack and helping the Company to establish sure footing as a new face and voice for our “Pet Tracker” product." Some of the ways the Company intends to provide a superior device include potential features like: 1. Health monitoring: Monitor a pet's health by tracking their activity levels, heart rate, and other biometric data. This information could be shared with veterinarians or pet owners to identify potential health problems early on. 2. Behavior modification: Modify a pet's behavior by providing real-time feedback on their location and activity level. For example, a device could be set up to alert a pet owner if their dog has strayed too far from home, or if their cat is spending too much time in a certain area. 3. Predictive analytics: Collect data on a pet's behavior and use machine learning algorithms to predict future behavior. This could help pet owners anticipate potential problems and take preventive action. 4. Social media integration: Integration with social media platforms, allowing pet owners to share their pet's location and activity level with friends and family. This could create a community of pet owners who share information and support each other. 5. Virtual fences: Create virtual fences around a pet's home or yard, alerting the pet owner if their pet strays beyond a certain boundary. This could be especially useful for pet owners who live in areas with high levels of traffic or other hazards. Ultrack and Supreme Products are planning a full-orbed marketing plan through multiple strategies including: As technology and AI evolves, the Company will seek for new ways to add more benefits to its line of pet care products. Investors can anticipate updates moving forward regarding details of the development and deployment of the new "Pet Tracker" product. Furthermore, the details of the contract with Supreme Products involves a marketing partnership to bring appropriate exposure to the new Pet Tracker product. These initiatives include but are not limited to: 1. Social media advertising: Social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram offer targeted advertising options that allow businesses to reach pet owners directly, especially young pet owners. 2. Influencer marketing: Partnering with influencers in the pet industry can be an effective way to reach a wider audience. 3. Pet store partnerships: Starting with pet stores in Canada and established relationship, the Company believes this strategy will be well-received and well-rewarded. 4. Trade shows and events: The Company is looking ahead to three of the largest North American pet-focused trade shows in which to have a meaningful presence. The Company invites current and future shareholders to check back regularly at our website http://ultrack.ca, Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/UltrackSolutions and Twitter page: https://twitter.com/ultracki About MJLB: Located in Concord, Ontario, Ultrack Systems Inc., ( www.ultrack.ca ) is a publicly traded company listed on the OTCMARKETS under the MJLB trading symbol. Ultrack Systems Inc., is a provider of GPS tracking solutions. We develop, implement, and distribute electronic monitoring and tracking systems for companies in leasing, transportation, construction, disposal, and many other services driven industries.
