You might have wondered why a robotics company was based way out in the sticks of Gunma. Well that’s because Sakakibara is actually a farm machinery company creating equipment such as feeding machines and automatic soil aeration.

However, the agriculture business as we know it has been on the decline for quite some time, so Sakakibara decided to diversify into amusement machines, utilizing their know-how of safety and ease of use that goes into their farming equipment.

https://advanxis.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Advanxistech4.jpg

Sakakibara Kikai has developed other robots and amusement machines alongside its main agriculture equipment business and rents them out for about ¥100,000 ($930) an hour, for kids’ birthday parties and other entertainment.
The company has created robots as varied as the 3.4-meter tall Landwalker, the smaller Kid’s Walker Cyclops and the MechBoxer boxing machine — but the mighty Mononofu towers over them all and executes more complex movements.

MONONOFU is designed to resemble robots from various Japanese animation such as GUNDAM, and features a cockpit from which you can control all movements. It even has a lift that takes the pilot up to the cockpit from the ground! According to Masaaki, the company’s initial plan was for something slightly shorter.
“We were thinking of around five to six metres. But because we wanted a cockpit, that height will not be enough,” he explained.

Science/TechnologyMeet MONONOFU The World's Largest Humanoid Robot by techmatas(op):
Standing at 8.46 m (27 ft 9 in) tall, 4.27 m (14 ft) long and 4 m (13 ft 1 in) wide, two-legged robot weighing in at more than 7 tons, Sakakibara Kikai's beast named MONONOFU (meaning "samurai warrior" in Japanese) holds a Guinness World Records title for the largest humanoid robot vehicle.

https://advanxis.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Advanxistech.jpg

Mononofu became larger than the door to the warehouse. This means that it can’t go outside without them either dismantling it or the building itself

https://advanxis.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Advanxistech1.jpg

Developed by engineer Masaaki Nagumo from Sakakibara Kikai, a maker of farming machinery based in Gunma Prefecture, Japan This humanoid looking beast can move its fingers and turn its upper body, and walk forward and backward, thus setting the new world record for being the Largest humanoid robot (largest humanoid vehicle), according to the WORLD RECORD ACADEMY.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8pLSU4gbks

It’s movement was eerily smooth, as if it had wheels on the bottom. However, its knees appeared to be moving as if it were walking. Nagumo later explained that Mononofu does have wheels but isn’t driven by them. Rather it uses its pelvis and knees to move forward and backward along the wheels.

It will also be practical and application based as we are going to carry out typical PLC based application in the oil and gas, packaging, food and beverage/bottling, petrochemical, power, etc industries

About the Automation Training
In recent times automation is increasingly taking over the industrial production systems and processes prompting a high demand for skilled automation engineers and technicians. Many industrial production systems and processes that were once manually run are now mostly automated. There is hardly any well established industry that does not employ automation in one form or the other. For instance, in the oil and gas industry automation is employed to control the flow, level, etc of petroleum product in a process control system. In the bottling industry automation is employed in the filling, cocking and packaging processes. In the power industry automation is normally deployed and utilized in the monitoring and control of power system parameters. The list goes on to include petrochemical, pharmaceutical, Food & beverage, packaging, automobile, chemical, Robotics, Marine, Agricultural, utility, Telecommunication, etc. in fact, it is projected in the business circle that a time will come when industrial production system and processes will be completely automated thus making automation personnel kings in the industry. This trend no doubt is catching up with the times faster than expected.

PLC an acronym which stands for programmable logic controller is the most widely used microprocessor based control system in the industry. It is a special computer specifically designed and fortified to handle control problems in the industry. It works in conjunction with sensors which serves as feedback to the process or machine and can be likened as the eyes of the PLC. The signals from the sensors are analyzed and controlling actions taking by the PLC on the process/machine according to the stored program of instruction in the memory of the PLC. The PLC ensures consistency, efficiency, economy and safety in the industrial production system and processes.

CareerRe: Most Demanded Skilled Personnel In Offshore/onshore Oil &gas Production Platform by techmatas(op): 8:08am On Jan 31, 2021
^^ yeah, some of the trade posted up there don't even require you to be a graduate before you can fit in
CareerMost Demanded Skilled Personnel In Offshore/onshore Oil &gas Production Platform by techmatas(op): 11:56pm On Jan 26, 2021
https://advanxis.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/advanxis28-1024x683.png

The oil and gas offshore/onshore production platforms often demand technically inclined professionals with outstanding skills, training and experience to man its facility. In an offshore/onshore production setting, various professionals ranging from painters, welders, operators, technicians, document controllers and engineers work together to see that production goals are achieved. In a typical oil and gas production platform there is often very high demand for hands on skilled personnel like the technicians, operators, artisans, etc, far more than any other trade. In fact, these group of workers make up over 80% of workers in the shore hence the list will be dominated by these set of workers.

The following list shows in order the most likely dominant trade you can find in any offshore /onshore production platform

Maintenance Personnel
Maintenance personnel tops the list. Maintenance personnel are responsible for the repairs as well as routine and preventive maintenance of the oil and gas production facilities as well as the living quarters utilities of the accommodation areas. The maintenance team is made up of different unit ranging from instrumentation/controls, mechanical, electrical, HVAC, etc. Each maintenance unit is made up of mainly technician with supervisors heading each unit and onshore support Engineers providing necessary maintenance support from onshore. A minimum of ND or it equivalent is what qualifies one to work as maintenance technician in most offshore/onshore companies.

Instrument/controls personnel
Instrumentation and control professionals are currently the most demanded profession in a typical modern oil and gas production platform maintenance team hence they are often the largest personnel you can find on site within the team. As modern production facilities get increasingly automated so also the demand for automation professionals (Instrumentation, controls, safety controls, etc) increases.

Who’s qualified
Although personnel with Electrical/Electronic background dominate this field. Other engineering professionals or science personnel with appropriate training/certification and or experience can also fit in.

Mechanical system personnel


mechanical system professionals are the second largest group of personnel you can find in the maintenance team. production systems are mechanical in nature so frequent breakdown is always envisaged hence the high demand for mechanical technicians and their allied professionals. Besides, for efficient operation of those equipment the need for routine and preventive maintenance is inevitable. Compressors, Turbines, blowers, hydraulic systems, among others fall within the purview of mechanical professionals. In

Who’s qualified
Although personnel with Mechanical background dominate this field. Other engineering professionals or science personnel with appropriate training/certification and or experience can also fit in.

Electrical System Personnel

This is often the second most sort after professionals in the oil and gas production facility. The fact that the production system utilizes electricity to power it machinery it becomes imperative that adequate personnel be available to ensure that power system is adequately maintained. pumps, compressors, blowers, HVAC, utilities, etc among others are parts of the equipment that is powered by electricity offshore. in fact, a typical offshore location may have an electrical power demand in excess of 20MW! (Can easily power a town). In a typical production site, they can have up to seven to eleven electrical personnel onboard.

Who is qualified
Although personnel with Electrical/Electronic background dominate this field. Other engineering professionals or science personnel with appropriate training/certification and or experience can also fit in.

Construction/fabrication personnel
These are usually the second most likely dominant group of personnel you can find on site in the shores. There job is usually physically challenging and they usually complement the maintenance team. In this group we have the Scaffolders, painters/blaster, riggers, rope access, welders, crane operators, forklift operators, etc.

Who is qualified
In most cases, minimum of O level certificate with relevant experience, training/certification can qualify one to work as any of the above stated trades.

Production Personnel
production personnel used to be the most dominant professionals in a typical oil and gas production facilities, after all they operate the production facilities. However, due to increasingly modernization and automation of the production system fewer and fewer operators are currently on demand. over 85% of the oil and gas production machinery runs autonomously with production operators merely monitoring the performance of the system hence you keep having less and less operators as production get even more automated.

Who is qualified
A minimum of ND (ND, HND, BSC, etc) in any of the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering) courses is what is required to be considered.

Marine Personnel
These are personnel who are involved in all marine operations and logistics. They are usually in charge of the various vessels around the shore, the chemical supplies, the food supplies, the equipment supplies, boat landing and helicopter operations.

Who is qualified
In most cases minimum of O level certificate with relevant experience qualifies you.
