Los Angeles, California--(Newsfile Corp. - March 5, 2024) - California Nanotechnologies Corp. (TSXV: CNO) (OTC Pink: CANOF) ("Cal Nano" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a US$300,000 down payment for a cutting-edge MSP-5 Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) machine by Germany-based Dr. Fritsch. Cal Nano will be the first organization in North America to receive this model and once operational, it is expected to be the largest SPS machine commercially available for production and R&D manufacturing services on the continent. This purchase solidifies Cal Nano's SPS leadership, enabling larger part sizes and expanding processing capacity for new customer opportunities.

加利福尼亞州洛杉磯--(Newsfile Corp.,2024年3月5日)——加州納米技術公司(TSXV:CNO)(場外交易代碼:CANOF)(“Cal Nano” 或 “公司”)欣然宣佈,總部位於德國的弗裏奇博士爲尖端的 MSP-5 火花等離子燒結(SPS)機器支付30萬美元的首付。Cal Nano將成爲北美第一個採用該機型的組織,一旦投入運營,預計它將成爲該大陸市面上可用於生產和研發製造服務的最大SPS機器。此次收購鞏固了Cal Nano在SPS領域的領導地位,實現了更大的零件尺寸並擴大了加工能力,從而爲新的客戶機會提供了更多機會。

"We are ecstatic to announce this down payment as we build on a thesis developed over five years ago that SPS would become a more prevalent technology," stated CEO Eric Eyerman. "This machine is expected to open new customer applications in key growth areas, such as aerospace, cleantech, renewable energy, and industrials. These opportunities were previously beyond our reach due to the part size and throughput limitations of our current machines. Overall, Cal Nano has assembled a unique offering of advanced materials manufacturing capabilities that can scale with customers from R&D projects to commercial production."

首席執行官埃裏克·艾爾曼表示:“我們欣喜地宣佈這筆首付款,因爲我們在五年前提出的論點的基礎上再接再厲,即SPS將成爲一種更普遍的技術。”“預計這臺機器將在航空航天、清潔技術、可再生能源和工業等關鍵增長領域開啓新的客戶應用。由於我們當前機器的零件尺寸和吞吐量限制,這些機會以前是我們無法企及的。總體而言,Cal Nano已經組裝了一種獨特的先進材料製造能力,可以根據客戶的需求進行擴展,從研發項目到商業生產。”

The new SPS equipment, which is expected to be delivered in late calendar year 2024, will exert a maximum force of 500 tons and run on an electric current of 85,000 amps. This is around five times the power of Cal Nano's current largest SPS machine in terms of force and approximately nine times in terms of electric current.

新的SPS設備預計將於2024年下半年交付,其最大輸出力爲500噸,並使用85,000安培的電流運行。就力而言,這大約是Cal Nano目前最大的SPS機器的五倍,就電流而言,大約是九倍。

Although the full funding structure is yet to be formalized, Cal Nano expects to potentially finance the purchase using a blend of current cash reserves, operational cash flows, vendor financing, and support from customers.

儘管完整的融資結構尚未正式確定,但Cal Nano預計有可能利用當前的現金儲備、運營現金流、供應商融資和客戶支持爲收購融資。

In the last twelve months, Cal Nano has undertaken various initiatives to strengthen its manufacturing capabilities and capacity, such as:

在過去的十二個月中,Cal Nano採取了各種舉措來加強其製造能力和產能,例如:

  • July 2023: Procured a used cryomill, the third and largest to date, increasing cryomilling capacity multifold in anticipation of heightened customer demand
  • October 2023: Acquired a piece of equipment that performs additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, in conjunction with SPS technology
  • December 2023: Purchased a third, smaller SPS system for installation at the Cerritos headquarters
  • February 2024: Procured another used cryomill, the fourth and largest to date, increasing cryomilling capacity further along with signing new manufacturing facility lease in Santa Ana
  • March 2024: Announced a down payment for an MSP-5 SPS system to increase scale, capable of accommodating higher production volumes and larger part sizes
  • 2023 年 7 月:採購了一臺二手低溫研磨機,這是迄今爲止第三臺,也是最大的低溫研磨機,由於預計客戶需求將增加,低溫研磨產能成倍增加
  • 2023 年 10 月:收購了一臺與 SPS 技術結合使用進行增材製造(也稱爲 3D 打印)的設備
  • 2023 年 12 月:購買了第三套較小的 SPS 系統,安裝在 Cerritos 總部
  • 2024 年 2 月:購買了另一臺二手低溫研磨機,這是迄今爲止第四臺,也是最大的低溫研磨機,進一步提高了低溫研磨能力,同時簽署了位於聖安娜的新制造設施租約
  • 2024 年 3 月:宣佈爲 MSP-5 SPS 系統支付首付款,以擴大規模,能夠適應更高的產量和更大的零件尺寸

Cal Nano is developing products with a variety of customers that have the potential to utilize the new SPS capacity once it becomes operational at the new facility. In the fiscal quarter ending February 29, 2024, Cal Nano secured approximately US$1 million in purchase orders from customers utilizing its SPS and cryomilling manufacturing capabilities.

Cal Nano正在與各種客戶一起開發產品,這些產品一旦在新工廠投入運營,就有可能利用新的SPS產能。在截至2024年2月29日的財政季度中,加州納米利用其SPS和低溫研磨製造能力從客戶那裏獲得了約100萬美元的採購訂單。
