| REGI U.S., Inc. / Reg Technologies Inc. Announce RadMax® Diesel Engine Design Review Successfully Completed |
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 30, 2008) - REGI U.S., Inc. ("REGI" or "RGUS") (OTCBB:RGUS)(FRANKFURT:RGJ) and Reg Technologies Inc. ("Reg" or "RRE.V" or "REGRF") (TSX VENTURE:RRE)(OTCBB:REGRF) are pleased to announce that Paul L. Porter, Engineering Chief, and Robert Grisar, Vice President of Engineering, have completed the detailed design review of RadMax(R) diesel engine models and drawings developed using the Solid Works CAD/CAM/CAE package. The improved design integrates features to simplify mechanical interfaces, reduce friction, and improve sealing.
The next step immediately following the detailed design review is the fabrication of prototype RadMax(R) diesel engine hardware, and start of testing to prove the RadMax(R) technology to several interested potential partners.
The initial test program will validate all seals functions, friction, and mechanical interfaces. The second phase will include fueled tests at a subcontracted facility to verify RPM, torque, and related values for fuel, air, and exhaust.
Robert Grisar, Vice President of Engineering, states, "By using Solid Works as a design and analysis tool, many complex RadMax(R) diesel engine design challenges were solved. I am extremely confident that REGI and Reg Technologies now have the RadMax(R) design that will prove to be a great success."
ABOUT REGI U.S., INC. AND REG TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Reg Technologies Inc. and REGI U.S., Inc. are developing for commercialization an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam(TM)/RadMax(R) rotary technology used in the revolutionary design of lightweight and high efficiency engines, compressors and pumps. The RadMax(R) engine has only two unique moving parts, the vanes (up to 12) and the rotor, compared to the 40 moving parts in a simple four-cylinder piston engine. This innovative design makes it possible to produce up to 24 continuous power impulses per one rotation that is vibration-free and extremely quiet. The RadMax(R) engine also has multi-fuel capabilities allowing it to operate on fuels including gasoline, natural gas, hydrogen, propane and diesel. REGI U.S., Inc. and its parent company, Reg Technologies Inc., are currently designing and testing prototype RadMax(R) diesel engines, compressors and pumps intended for aviation, automotive, industrial processes and military applications.
