A Madera-based company is launching a new line of “Made in USA” products that will maintain and possibly increase manufacturing jobs in the San Joaquin Valley.

Nemat, Inc. is developing and manufacturing products made entirely in the United States, starting with their “Mighty Mount” television mounting system, an anodized aluminum product that allows the mounting of a wide range of television sizes. Owner Mike Nemat said Mighty Mount is available online through Amazon or directly from his company, because retailers were hesitant about stocking the product.

“They want more Chinese products for two dollars that they can mark up,” Nemat said.

Originally designed for flat screen TVs, Mighty Mount can hold up to 2,500 pounds. Prices range from $55 to $90 for mini, small, medium and large sizes.

Nemat, Inc. will offer a removable swimming pool fence that can also be used to enclose a front yard for parties or other events and a device that monitors children within a 10 to 20 foot range.

“It’s good for using at the mall and other places,” Nemat said. “It can be connected to an iPhone or cell phone. It lets you know where your kids are.”

Nemat opened the pricision machining shop on a $2 million investment in 2009, creating 30 news jobs.

For more information, contact Nemat, Inc. at (877) 540-6716 or nemat@nemat.com.

Little Caesars uses Robots Sign Shakers Instead of Humans


.



This may sound like a joke, but Little Caesars is using robots to advertise with signs! Even though the job is not a major one, it still qualifies as a job performed by a human. In the video above, you can see a person freaking out and recording the working robot. Please share to inform everyone that the end is near (joking)!

"Ground Broken for 50-Person Plant"


.

Here is another great article written about Nemat Management Group when we were first breaking ground. This is from the Madera Tribune on July 28, 2008.

By Tami Jo Nix


The goal of building a new manufacturing plant and hiring a 50-person workforce by the end of 2009 brought the Hayward-based Nemat Management Group to break ground for a new manufacturing plant at 19343 Road 24 in Madera.

Owner Mike Nemat and his wife Leila Shahnavaz welcomed dignitaries and civic leaders to the event, which featured gold-headed shovels to turn over the ceremonial dirt.

The plant will provide high-precision production machining services through Computer Numeric Control devices with precision dimensions measured to the specifications of its customers. He said the workforce he intends to hire will be trained for machining, welding and assembly at their Hayward plant or in Detroit. 

Nemat looked at several other sites when deciding where to build his manufacturing plant.

"For awhile it felt like the EDC was becoming a satellite office." Nemat said. 

He complimented Madera and Bobby Kahn, executive director of the Madera County Economic Development Commission, saying that after meeting with a representative of the Fresno EDC office, he canceled all of his other Fresno meetings because he knew he wanted to build in Madera. 


MeCam, the $50 camera-equipped micro quadcopter


.



With all the hype going on regarding micro quadcopters, I thought this post would be relevant pertaining to that topic. AR drone is $300, CrazyFlie is $150, and MeCam is $50. Developed by a new company called Always Innovating, MeCam is supposedly a $50 palm-sized quadcopter with an eclectic range of features. For example, the MeCam quadcopter has a live-streaming camera (iOS and Android compatible), it can follow its master, and it can even obey voice commands. All this seems too good to be true for a measly price of just $50. Aside from that, Always Innovating has stated that any company willing to produce this robot will be able to sell it. MeCam's estimated release date is planned to be early next year. If all this is true, then you can count on me to show you a demo of this highly capable micro quadcopter. Thanks for reading and the photo below is an example of what the MeCam robot looks like when comparing it's size to the size of a hand! Be sure to follow us on Twitter to stay updated!
