The Ultimate in: Design Simplicity; and, Power Density (power to weight ratio); and, Versatility; and, Mechanical and Thermal Efficiencies.

About Ultimate Free Piston Engines Free piston engines are unlike conventional engines, having no crankshaft to control the movement of their pistons yet offer the possibility of lighter more powerful engines than have ever been built.

About Ultimate Free Piston Engines Ultimate Free Piston Engine s Founders have over the course of 12 years of R & D with almost $2 million invested in numerous prototypes and have overcome all the problems of engine control, resulting in the filing of a number of important patent applications regarding novel engine actuation methods.

The Goal The goal of Ultimate Free Piston Engines (UFPE) is to create an engine with the highest power to weight ratio of any available production engine being lighter and more powerful with an elongated (due to its long stroke length) small size.

The Goal The efficiency of positive displacement engines is largely determined by the compression ratio. Our UFPE engines with virtually unlimited stroke length can readily reach compression ratios greater than 40 to 1. And, can produce combined efficiency ranging near 70% that will be a new world record.

Investment Opportunity Ultimate Free Piston Engines is offering equity ownership units to accredited investors of one percent (1%) for the sum of $20,000 for up to forty percent (40%) total ownership interest in UFPE for a total of $800,000.

Investment Opportunity The minimum allowable investment is $5,000 for one quarter of one percent (.25%) ownership interest in order to build the next generation of Ultimate Free Piston Engines and to establish U.S. manufacturing.

Estimated Sales and Potential Profits Summary Assumptions: (1) UFPE engine / compressor / pump sales price (ranging from $50,000 to $250,000); more lower cost units being sold for an average per unit sales price of $100,000; and, (2) the average unit costs is 60% of the sale price as a percentage (to build the engine); and, (3) the gross profit margin is 40% of the sales price; and, (4) operating costs being roughly equal to 25% of sales price; and net profit before tax being equal to 15% of the sales price.

Power Output Shaft for Rotation The Free Piston Engine alone is needed for Gas Compression or Liquid Pumping via adding additional pistons to its shafts. The Sprague Gear Transmission is only used when Rotation is Desired, such as Automotive use or in Electrical Power Generation. Sprague Gear Transmission Ultimate Free Piston Engine Schematic Outer Housing Engine Block

Record Ultra-High Efficiency The UFPE is an extremely versatile, ultrahigh efficiency free piston engine that currently holds the record high mechanical efficiency of 94% that was verified by third party dynamometer tests performed at the Kennedy Engine testing facility, which can perform any tasks of an engine.

Versatility The Ultimate engine is so versatile that it can be operated using any heat source, such as; combustive heat; geothermal heat, solar thermal energy; or, alternatively may be powered by any pressurized fluid,

Key Market Focus Gas Compression Industry (Oil and Gas and Refrigeration) Ultimate Free Piston Engine technology is perhaps best suited for the massive gas compression industry because it can accomplish extremely high pressures within a single stage (one long stroke), which takes competing compressors multi-stages of compression (often up to five stages) to accomplish with their shorter compression stokes. And, UFPE can run on Natural Gas.

Income and Growth Potential Looking from the top down, the Ultimate Engine may be used for any purpose that any other engine may be useful, such as electrical power generation; automotive, for oil and gas pumps and compressors that includes CNG and LNG production; refrigeration, etc.

Income and Growth Potential However, looking from the bottom up, the most lucrative market is perhaps oil and gas related for gas compression, liquid pumping, including the rapidly emerging onsite CNG and LNG markets. UFPE s technology reduces the costs of oil and gas production while increasing output and product market value. With the drop in oil prices, our services are even more attractive to oil companies.

Gas Compression Industry Hanover Compressor which became a $3 billion dollar company in only two years from inception is an example of success in the gas compression industry. Ultimate Free Piston Engines hopes to gain market share in the multi-billion dollar gas compression industry being driven by the switch from oil to the use of compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid natural gas (LNG).

Gas Compression Industry Atlas Copco s sales being the leading compressor company are near $10 billion per year alone. Export of LNG is now allowed, spurring investment in the industry. There is a limited ability to produce LNG onsite which provides an excellent market niche for UFPE, as its technology is especially well suited for this market because of its long stroke that produces high pressures in a single stage, along with its small size, weight and cost as compared to the existing technology.

Atlas Copco leads the market in sales followed by Ingersoll Rand Currently the compression market is dominated by low efficiency existing technology units of extremely large size and weight due to their need of multiple stage compression to reach high pressure output. Some models operate at near 15% efficiency, while the best of the class is generally less than 25% efficient. By comparison the Ultimate Free Piston Engine with completed engineering predicting efficiencies approaching 70%, can be as little as one- fourth of the size and of the weight of conventional gas compressors on the market today, for the same power and volume and pressure of compressed gases output! A prime Example of Existing Technology

Physicist and Inventor Robert D. Hunt Robert started his career as an employee of Tenneco Oil Company s Newport News Shipbuilding division being a Nuclear Engineer within its elite New Nuclear Design Department that was responsible for the creation of the nuclear reactors for the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier, which has become the Nimitz class that includes nine carriers due to its enormously successful design. Robert is the Founder and inspirational genius behind Ultimate Free Piston Engine s technology having spent the past 12 years on its development and is the holder of the patents related to the technology that include his novel exhaust engine actuation method and his hydraulic synchronization and breaking method in order to absolutely control the timing and the movement of the engine s pistons; and other important innovations.

The Free Piston Engine Challenge The Engineering Challenge for Free Piston Engines Has Been How to Control Pistons that have been Accelerated to very High Velocity Over the Course of their Long Distance Strokes, which basically Slam Back-and- Forth with Enormous Power being into the Thousands of Pounds of Force; As there is no Crank Shaft to Limit their Stroke?

No Transmission is Needed for Gas Compression or Liquid Pumping In most of the videos and graphics for the Ultimate Free Piston Engine there is a Sprague gear transmission shown that is no required for liquid pumping and / or for gas compression, providing additional efficiency with substantial cost savings. Additional pistons are merely added to the existing shafts of the engine s power pistons.

High Temp. and (- Negative) -380 deg. F. Low Temp. using Liquid Oxygen as Coolant for his Solid State Thermoelectric Cryogenic Vaporizer (Air Liquide Grant)

Exhaust Actuation (Patents Pending) All Mechanical Linkage was Eliminated by Hunt s Counter- Intuitive creation of a novel method to Run and to Time a Free Piston Engine using its residual exhaust pressure as the driving force to set Real Time timing that automatically decreases or increases engine speed, based on pressure and volume inputs alone that could be one of the all-time most important discoveries in Free Piston Engine Development.

Hydraulic Breaking and Synchronization (Patents Pending) Hydraulic Breaking smoothly controls the back and forth movement of the engine s power shafts and pistons; as well as the reciprocating actuator assembly with applied controlled deceleration. Hydraulic Synchronization locks all of the engines movable shafts and pistons into coordinated movement so that their alignment never varies and they always remain in the proper relationship to the rest of the engine s moving parts.

World Record in Combined Mechanical and Thermal Total Efficiency Ultimate Free Piston Engine Technology is Shooting for the world s record in total combined efficiency currently held by a Caterpillar free piston engine prototype at 59% Completed Engineering gives us assurance that the Ultimate in free piston engine technology that we are developing can approach 70% combined mechanical and thermal total efficiency, which when accomplished will give Mr. Hunt his fourth world record.

Key Points Toward the Record in Total Efficiency Use by Ultimate Free Piston Engine Technology of the more efficient Brayton cycle as in gas fired turbine engines and jet engines (40%) with combustion in a combustor separate of the power pistons (typical internal combustion engines that use the Otto cycle being 25% efficient on average by comparison). Ultra-high compression ratio of 40 to 1 to be used as the ratio is directly related to efficiency and fuel usage (typical Brayton compression ratio of less than 6 to 1 by comparison).
