It’s 1947, the first transistor had just been created and an imaginable change was about to take place.  In that same year, Ferrari would book its first grand prix victory. 1947 also marks the year ENSER was formed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as an ENgineering SERvices company designing jigs, fixtures, gauges, dies, and special machines. In 70 years, Ferrari has become the winningest grand prix team of all time, and the transistor paved the electronic way for the advancement of computers, forever changing the way business is conducted. How much has your industry, and your own organization, changed in the last 70 years?  Can you imagine your organization without CAD/CAM tools, product lifecycle management systems, e-mail and virtual private networks? ENSER has evolved from drafting tables and manual delivery of blueprints, to employing cutting edge CAD/CAM tools, product lifecycle management systems, tying to our customers’ projects resources and CAD libraries with secure virtual private networks to prototyping using 3D printers.  Through engineering, design and staffing services, ENSER and its customers create the synergy needed to stay competitive in today’s economy. In seven decades, we have adapted not only to emerging technologies but also to business and economic trends such as downsizing, rightsizing, offshoring, reshoring, diversity and generational changes and the effects they have on human resources, deliverables and profitability. Last year, we rebranded our staffing division into EngineeringTemp.com, the first specialized engineering staffing service for engineering, controls and system professionals.  We take pride in understanding an organization’s unique needs and specifications, fulfilling those requirements with skilled temporary engineering professionals. While both Bell Labs and Ferrari have changed ownership in 70 years, ENSER has remained a privately held company. ENSER moved to its current Cinnaminson, New Jersey, headquarters in 1972 and later that decade ENSER opened its Florida and North Carolina offices. Our reputation has been built on the quality of service we provide and the ability to deliver superior cutting-edge solutions. ENSER was featured in Business News New Jersey as a Top 40 New Jersey Finest companies. We firmly believe that long-term customer satisfaction is the cornerstone of our success, and we are committed to superior quality and service. That philosophy will always be the standard basis for our success. A testament to this long term vision is our support of Siemens (Westinghouse) for 50 years and DuPont for 35 years respectively. Whether you are looking to stay competitive in today’s changing business environment, are looking ahead for the next year, or the next 10, know that you can count on the expertise of a company that has been helping companies, like yours, with engineering and staffing services since 1947.

A message from Marco Arnone, President of ENSER.

As 2017 gets underway, US economic indicators show our economy poised for growth. As a proud sponsor of the American Made Matters organization for many years, the tide continues to turn for manufacturing job growth in the US. Five Key Topics For Manufacturing Job Growth in 2017:

• 1)    Trade – renegotiating NAFTA and TPP
• 2)    Regulation – reduction of regulations
• 3)    Taxes – tax reduction of corporate tax rate
• 4)    Infrastructure – significant infrastructure investments over the next 10 years
• 5)    Military Spending – proposed increase in military spending

There is still a lot of uncertainty but we at Enser remain hopeful that 2017 and beyond will be prosperous for all US based companies. What are your company’s plans for 2017, what growth and capital programs are on your horizon?  As your need arises, please don’t hesitate to contact a representative to develop an engineering solution to address your workforce challenge either by out sourcing to our engineering division or with contract engineers on site at your facility through EngineeringTemp.com (an ENSER company). Our mission is to develop truly innovative and revolutionary solutions within our industry. We firmly believe that long-term customer satisfaction is the cornerstone of our success, and we are committed to superior quality and service. That commitment will always be the standard basis for our success. Wishing you a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!

Drone 100 was a crazy idea that came out of a hallway conversation inside Intel, and now it has become a reality. Working with Ars Electronica Futurelab, we were able to create a formation of 100 UAVs in the sky, creating amazing images and ending with the Intel logo.

Renewable Energy’s Secret Weapon Charles Murray, Senior Technical Editor, Electronics & Test Indeed, the breadth of potential solutions is emerging, not only in the form of varying chemistries, but also in the format of the storage source. In May, Tesla Motors made its play for the storage market by rolling out a product that can be mounted on a garage wall near a home’s electrical panel. The company said that the unit, known as the Powerwall, is part of Tesla’s effort to wean the world off fossil fuels. “This is within the power of humanity to do,” said Tesla CEO Elon Musk. “We have done things like this before. It’s not impossible.” Tesla’s product, which employs lithium-ion battery technology, measures 34 x 51 x 7 inches and costs $3,500 for a 10-kWh of storage. Tesla said it also plans to sell bigger battery blocks for use in commercial and utility applications. Blocks containing 100-kWh of storage could be grouped to create larger systems offering as much as 10 MWh, Musk said. Experts say that either format — home storage or utility-sized systems — can serve as viable grid solutions. “You can think of solar on an individual’s roof as a distributed power plant on the grid,” said Chamberlain of the Joint Center for Energy Storage Research. “That’s where we are headed in the future.” Pronouncements such as those have created a sense of optimism in the storage community, which is why the Energy Storage Association now counts such names as GE Energy Storage, LG Chem, Parker Hannifin, Johnson Controls, Hitachi Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin Advanced Energy Storage, Mitsubishi Electric Power, Samsung, Sharp, and many others among its members. That’s not to say all is rosy for battery makers. Grid storage is still a nascent market, still struggling to find its way. In 2014, A123 Systems divested itself of its grid storage division. And in 2015, Ambri announced that it had cut a quarter of its staff and had backed off its plans to ship its first commercial grid storage products in 2016. News reports indicated that the company’s engineers were experiencing problems with the battery’s high-temperature seals. Ambri isn’t saying when its first products will finally reach the market. Still, experts are steadfast in their belief that battery storage will eventually be needed for the electrical grid. “When there’s high demand, there can be a mismatch between the production of electricity and the use of electricity,” Chamberlain said. “During those milliseconds, batteries can act as a buffer.” Grid storage proponents see it more optimistically. The batteries are more than a buffer, they say. They’re a key to a new way of life. “Once we’re able to rely on renewable energy sources for our power consumption, the top 50% of the dirtiest power generation resources could retire early,” Tesla Motors said in a prepared statement. “We could have a cleaner, smaller, and more resilient energy grid.”
