Licensing and Business Opportunities

 

Our company developed and patented the MCC™ engine.  The majority of our development efforts have been for the RC hobby market and specialized military applications, however the MCC™ engine has tremendous potential for the commercial market.  This new technology engine has been developed to the point where it is ready to be optimized for numerous commercial applications.

The MCC™ engine does not have any known size limitations, so it can be developed for applications ranging from small lawn and garden tools to large automotive hybrid vehicles.   The engine also lends itself to lost cost manufacturing since it only has three moving parts.  Previous MCC™ engine prototypes have operated as spark ignited diesel fuel engines and have operated on low cost zero octane fuel without knock or autoignition problems.  This shows that the MCC™ engine has the capability to be operated as a multifuel engine. 

Our next area of commercialization will be the lawn and garden market.  A major benefit of the MCC™ engine is that it can be configured to meet the stringent emission and noise requirements that are being mandated by California and EPA.  We are developing a low emission MCC™ engine that will cost less to produce than four-stroke engines.  Other benefits of our low emission MCC™ engine include:

  • Quieter and cooler exhaust than competing engines.  This is being achieved without the added weight and cost of a muffler or spark arrestor.
  • High torque at low RPM levels which improves its ability to operate under heavy loads without stalling.
  • Fuel efficiency equal to or better than four-strokes.
  • Less vibration than four-stroke and two-stroke engines.
  • Lighter weight than four-stroke engines.
  • Very tolerant to exhaust back pressure.
  • Less costly to manufacture than four-stroke engines.

We are currently looking for companies that are interested in licensing our technology or partnering to develop our MCC™ engine technology for specific commercial areas.   If you would like to discuss potential business opportunities with us, please call Jeff Erickson at 260-338-1010 or e-mail us:
