‘Taiwan Bicycle Industry Standard’ Incorporates Global Standards
laws & regulations

TAIPEI, Taiwan – “To keep up the competitiveness of our bicycle industry in international markets we have implemented the ‘Taiwan Bicycle Industry Standard’ based on ISO 4210”, said GM Chen Liang of the Cycling & Health Tech Industry R&D Center during the Taipei Cycle Show last week.

‘Taiwan Bicycle Industry Standard’ Incorporates Global Standards

“Although ISO 4210 is not mandatory in various markets, many OEMs still want their bicycle component manufacturers to follow the ISO 4210 safety requirements”, said Liang. “This sometimes causes conflicts in quality levels. The TBIS, based on ISO 4120, incorporates other international standards used in the bicycle industry, especially for those bicycle parts that are excluded from ISO 4120.”

The TBIS consists of the same line-up as the ISO 4210.

TBIS 4210-1 states terms and definitions
TBIS 4210-2 requirements for city and trekking, young adult, mountain and racing bicycles
TBIS 4210-3 common test methods
TBIS 4210-4 braking test methods
TBIS 4210-5 steering test methods
TBIS 4210-6 frame and fork test methods
TBIS 4210-7 wheels and rim test methods
TBIS 4210-8 pedals and drive system test methods
TBIS 4210-9 paddles and seat-post test methods
The other standards included in the TBIS are the North American CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) 16 CFR 1512, the South American ABNT NBT, the JIS (Japanese Industry Standard) and the BS (British Standard). The TBIS includes the BS chapters on the safety requirements and test methods for the BS EN 14766: 2005 mountain bikes, BS EN 14781: 2005 racing bicycles and the BS EN 14765: 2006 bicycles for young children.

Ford to Unveil First Original-Installed Strobe Warning LED Lights to F-150

Ford, America’s truck leader and the only automaker to offer an available factory-installed strobe warning LED light kit, is making strobe lights available to F-150 fleet customers for the first time.

The strobe light kit is designed for use by utility, road construction and municipal crews that need enhanced vehicle visibility while working on-site to warn motorists and others that workers may be present and to proceed with caution.*

Already available on 2016 F-Series Super Duty, the lights now are available for all 2016 F-150 models – making the toughest, smartest, most capable and safest F-150 ever an even better tool for work. The kit uses weather-resistant, durable, low-power LEDs, and is specifically designed to work with the F-150 high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body.

The front- and rear-mounted amber lens strobe lights can be seen from as far away as 1,000 feet during the day and a mile at night. Forward-facing signals are high mounted at the rear edge of the hood for maximum visibility. Rear-facing signals are mounted on either side of the center high-mounted stop lamp, and provide up to 180 degrees of illumination. Customers can program the flash pattern to meet specific fleet requirements.

“Ford designed the first-ever factory-installed LED warning light kit based on fleet customer input,” said Kent Bock, Ford commercial accessory business development manager. “Because it comes directly from Ford, customers can trust that this light kit is Built Ford Tough. Ordering is as easy as checking a box, and the truck is delivered to your dealer with the system installed.”

The no-drill option has a Ford limited warranty of three years or 36,000 miles, and is not susceptible to corrosion issues that can be a result of aftermarket installation. The strobe lights are serviceable at any of the more than 3,000 Ford dealerships nationwide.

Strobe light ordering is available for customers with a fleet identification number.

*Should only be used on or near work site and not during normal road driving

AIXTRON SE, a worldwide leading provider of deposition equipment to the semiconductor industry, today announced that Plessey Semiconductors Ltd. has ordered an AIX G5+ C cluster system for the production capacity expansion of gallium nitride LEDs manufactured on silicon wafers (GaN-on-Si). The tool is scheduled for delivery in the third quarter 2016.

The AIX G5+ C cluster for Plessey consists of two multi-wafer AIX G5+ reactors which are supplemented by AIXTRON’s next generation cassette-to cassette handler for large-scale, fully automated epitaxy production. Plessey purchased the AIXTRON planetary system mainly for the expansion of their 150 mm GaN-on-Si wafer production but also works towards 200 mm production qualification mid-term as AIXTRON’s G5+ system enables the processing of eight 150 mm wafers or five 200 mm wafers at the same time.

Mike Snaith, Operations Director at Plessey, said: “We are now moving from proof of capability for our GaN-on-Si LED products into a capacity expansion phase. In the meantime, we have built significant demand for a range of our LED products. We have decided to purchase AIXTRON’s latest planetary system as the AIX G5+ C combines outstanding on-wafer uniformity and run-to-run performance at lowest cost of ownership – aspects that are crucial for efficient high-volume GaN-on-Si production.”

Dr. Frank Schulte, Vice President AIXTRON Europe, comments: “We have a longstanding and trustful relationship with Plessey and therefore, we are delighted by the renewed order. Our AIX G5+ C planetary system resolves the common challenges of high-yield, high-quality and high-throughput production of GaN-based materials on large-area silicon wafers through its fully automated cassette-to-cassette loader and a thermally activated gas etch of the MOCVD chamber.”

Osram Sylvania Shortens Bulb Lifetime to Gain Traction in LED Lighting Market
News Source:
Forbes
Osram Sylvania is introducing a novel strategy to reduce LED bulb manufacturing costs, and keep it competitive on the market, according to a report from Forbes.

Instead of making LED bulbs that last 20 years or more and can stay on from 20,000 to 25,000 hours long, Osram’s U.S. branch has halved the bulb lifetime to around 11,000 hours.

The benefits of cutting short the bulbs life expectancy has enabled the company to lower 60W equivalent A19 LED bulb prices to US $3, compared to competitors, said Alfred LaSpina, LED product group manager at Osram.

“When LEDs get more efficient (and emit more lumens per watt), you don’t need as many LEDs,” he said.

There are other comparable type of savings in 10-year LED bulbs, which can generate the same amount of light as 75W incandescent bulbs and others.

Osram has also especially redesigned the “10-year” bulbs, so they would resemble incandescent bulbs in color temperature performance and fit in lamp sockets better, said LaSpina.

McKinsey & Co. estimates worldwide revenue for LEDs in general lighting will balloon from US $6.5 billion in 2011 to more than US $75 billion by 2020, and LED market share in the lighting sector would grow from 45% in 2016 to reach 70% by 2020.

Taiwanese Boxing Center Aglow with LED Lighting from Soraa

Soraa, the world leader in GaN on GaNTM LED technology, announced that its LED lamps have been installed at a new, high-end boxing facility, Boxing Plus Wellness Center, in Taipei, Taiwan. The interior design supports the goal of Boxing Plus to be a comfortable space that suits both male and female guests of all ages who wish to learn and enjoy boxing. Through interior and lighting design elements, Boxing Plus stands out from other fitness centers; it’s an elegant, clean and comfortable space where guests of any age can learn and enjoy boxing.

Chubic Lighting Consultant chose 74 PAR30 and 121 MR16 Soraa LED lamps to create an unusually elegant atmosphere for a boxing center and to spotlight the beautiful high-end gym equipment. Soraa’s lamps illuminate the large space and separate the three regions of the gym, including the boxing ring, weights, and the punching bag. Additionally, the lamps’ high-intensity beams bring an elevated level of control, illuminating each piece of the gym’s Italian exercise equipment. Given the short ceiling, the PAR30 and Soraa SNAP system is able to diffuse and refocus the LED light, making it much softer with less glare for people who use the gym.

“Boxing Plus Wellness Center is in class of its own in Taipei. The lighting creates a sophisticated ambiance – creating both a sense of drama and place and even exclusivity with spotlight in the equipment area and locker rooms,” said Jimmy Chu, Chubic Lighting Consultant.

The gym is so unique and perfectly illuminated that multiple commercial and editorial fashion photo shoots have been conducted in the space for renowned magazines, such as GQ, Vogue and Elle.

Soraa’s unique GaN on GaN™ LED technology allows its LEDs to operate at currents that are more than five times higher than LEDs built on other materials. This means a lot of light comes from a very small source, resulting in a narrow beam that can be controlled to crisply illuminate any area with a single shadow.

"Jimmy Chu, the head designer of Chubic Lighting Consultant, has surpassed our expectation and aim of redefining the ambiance of a boxing center to an haute-couture-like boutique. Lights are orchestrated to simultaneously exude theatrical tension on boxing stage with spot lights, playfully rhythmic energy in workout space, and tranquility in shower area as a perfect ending. Lights are deflected by linear curtains to avoid the discomfort of shining directly into customers’ eyes when they stretch. While the lighting escalated the centers aesthetic level, it is also practical to the actual needs,” said Boxing Plus owner, Portia Chi.

Boxing Plus and its high-end equipment are illuminated for perfect rendering of colors and whiteness because of Soraa’s Violet-Emission 3-Phosphor (VP₃) LED technology. Utilizing every color in the rainbow, especially deep red emission, Soraa’s lamps render warm tones beautifully and accurately, and achieve a color-rendering index (CRI) of 95 and deep red (R9) rendering of 95. And unlike blue-based white LEDs without any violet emission, the company’s lamps have violet emissions to properly excite fluorescing brightening agents, including paper and natural objects like human eyes and teeth.

Osram: Carve-out of General Lighting Business and Share Buyback Both on Track

At this year’s Annual General Meeting (AGM), OSRAM Licht AG Chief Executive Olaf Berlien gave details of the innovation and growth initiative to the lighting company’s shareholders. “Everyone’s talking about digitalization – but we’re investing in it,” Berlien said in Munich on Tuesday. “Only those who navigate through the dramatically changing lighting industry decisively and with courage and speed can be successful.” Through this initiative, Osram is putting the focus on sustainable growth and wants to take even greater advantage of the potential offered by semiconductor-based lighting technologies. Prior to that, another important strategic step, the carve-out process of the general lighting lamps business, got under way. “The operational carve-out is planned as of April 1, while the legal carve-out is planned as of July 1,” said Berlien, confirming the timeline announced earlier.

Following the carve-out of the lamps business, Osram will be based on three strategic pillars: Specialty Lighting (SP); luminaires, solutions, and electronic components (Lighting Solutions & Systems, LSS); LED components (Opto Semiconductors, OS); “With our three-pillar strategy, we have a solid foundation upon which to position ourselves even more strongly as a technology company,” said Olaf Berlien.

Given Osram’s strong financial standing, the company is proposing a dividend of €0.90 per share at Tuesday’s AGM. In parallel, Osram has in the meantime also started a share buyback program of up to €500 million. “Osram is financially strong and lets its shareholders benefit from its success,” Chief Financial Officer Klaus Patzak said at the AGM. “At the same time, we retain the capacity to invest for the future.”

This year’s Osram AGM is taking place at the International Congress Center in Munich. With still more than half a million shareholders at the end of fiscal 2015, the company’s ownership structure remained broadly based. As of September 30, about 68 percent of the shares were held by institutional investors. Retail investors held about 14 percent of the company’s shares.

II-VI Buys Anadigics for US $61M

ANADIGICS announced that, on January 15, 2016, it entered into a definitive agreement and plan of merger pursuant to which II-VI Incorporated ("II-VI") has offered to acquire all of the outstanding shares of ANADIGICS common stock on a fully diluted basis for $0.66 per share net in cash, pursuant to an all-cash tender offer and second-step merger (the "II-VI Merger Agreement"). The offer price in the II-VI Merger Agreement constitutes an increase of $0.31 per share over the November 11, 2015 agreement and plan of merger pursuant to which affiliates of GaAs Labs, LLC offered to acquire all of the outstanding shares of ANADIGICS common stock on a fully diluted basis for $0.35 per share net in cash, pursuant to an all-cash tender offer and second-step merger (the "GaAs Labs Merger Agreement"). On January 12, 2016, the Company announced that the $0.66 per-share offer from II-VI (an "Excluded Party," as defined in the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement, and referred to in the Company's January 12, 2016 announcement as "Party A") had been determined by the Company's Board of Directors to constitute a "Superior Offer," as that term is defined in the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement.

After the Company announced on January 12, 2016 that the $0.66 per-share offer from II-VI (referred to therein as "Party A") had been determined by the Company's Board of Directors to constitute a "Superior Offer," as that term is defined in the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement, GaAs Labs declined to submit to the Company a further amended acquisition proposal.

On January 14, 2016, another Excluded Party ("Party B"), whose proposed merger agreements were referenced in certain of the Company's previous announcements, delivered to the Company a further revised proposed merger agreement pursuant to which it offered, subject to the terms thereof, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock on a fully diluted basis for $0.75 per-share net in cash pursuant to an all-cash tender offer and second-step merger ("Party B's January 14, 2016 Proposed Amended Merger Agreement"). However, despite the increased per-share offer price, Party B's January 14, 2016 Proposed Amended Merger Agreement, in the business judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, fails to incorporate certain key terms and conditions demanded by the Board of Directors for the protection of the Company and its stockholders. Because Party B is a Chinese company, the closing of Party B's proposed acquisition of the Company would potentially be subject to delay caused by, among other things, the review and clearance process to be undertaken by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States ("CFIUS"). Based upon its consultation with the Company's management and its legal advisors, the Company's Board of Directors estimates that it could take 100 days or so from the date of the Company's ex*****on of a merger agreement with Party B for the parties to confer with CFIUS, to assemble and prepare the materials required to make the CFIUS filing, to make the actual CFIUS filing and for CFIUS to complete what could then be a 75-day review period. To protect the Company's business and financial condition in the event the closing of the proposed transaction with Party B were in fact delayed as a result of the time-consuming CFIUS review process, the Company's Board of Directors demanded, among other things, that Party B (a) agree to pay to the Company on the terms proposed by the Company a cash reverse termination fee in the event that the proposed transaction does not close in a timely manner or at all and (b) provide a loan, as needed, to the Company on terms acceptable to the Company and its bank, in the event that the proposed transaction does not close in a timely manner or at all.

In the business judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, in light of the Company's current business and financial condition, including the challenges to the Company's business and financial condition caused by the uncertainty surrounding the bidding process in which the Company has been engaged since November 2015, Party B's January 14, 2016 Proposed Amended Merger Agreement does not provide the Company and its stockholders with adequate protection against the potentially irreparable harm to the Company's business and financial condition that could result in the event that the proposed transaction with Party B does not close in a timely manner or at all. The Company's Board of Directors considered, among other things, that, if Party B were unable to consummate the proposed merger transaction with the Company in a timely manner or at all as a result of the CFIUS review process or otherwise, the Company could, by that time, have suffered irreparable declines in its financial and business condition and lost the opportunity to obtain $0.66 per-share for the Company's stockholders through the II-VI Merger Agreement, which, if not accepted by the Company, was to expire, by its terms, on January 15, 2016.

The Company's Board of Directors therefore weighed the comparative likelihood of completing the proposed transactions with II-VI and Party B, respectively, in assessing the overall value to the Company's stockholders of said transactions. Based upon its consultation with its financial and legal advisors, as well as upon discussions that its financial advisors and management have had with II-VI, the Company's Board of Directors believes that, subject to the satisfaction of the terms of the proposed II-VI tender offer for the Company's shares, II-VI may be able to close its proposed merger transaction with the Company in approximately 45 to 60 days.

The Company's Board of Directors also considered the fact that the Company's ex*****on of the II-VI Merger Agreement does not preclude Party B (or any other bidder), prior to the closing of the Company's proposed merger with II-VI, from submitting, or the Company's Board of Directors from considering, a further amended offer to acquire the Company.

Accordingly, the Company's Board of Directors, in consultation with its financial and legal advisors, unanimously determined in the good-faith exercise of its business judgment that, because there remain significant regulatory and other risks that render uncertain Party B's ability to close a merger transaction with the Company in a timely manner or at all, and because Party B's January 14, 2016 Proposed Amended Merger Agreement does not adequately protect the Company and its stockholders against the potentially irreparable harm to the Company's financial and business condition that could result from such a delay or failure to close, it would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders for the Company to enter into Party B's January 14, 2016 Proposed Amended Merger Agreement.

Instead, after consulting with its financial and legal advisors concerning the respective amended acquisition proposals that have been delivered to the Company by GaAs Labs, II-VI and Party B since November 2015, the Company's Board of Directors has unanimously determined in the good-faith exercise of its business judgment that the Company's ex*****on of the II-VI Merger Agreement on January 15, 2016, the date on which the offer set forth therein was to expire if not accepted by the Company, is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

In accordance with the terms of the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement, ANADIGICS notified GaAs Labs on January 15, 2016 of the Company's ex*****on of the II-VI Merger Agreement and intention to terminate the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement. Also on January 15, 2016, in accordance with the terms of the II-VI Merger Agreement, the termination fee that was owed by the Company to GaAs Labs under the GaAs Labs Merger Agreement was paid to GaAs Labs by II-VI.

Cree Moves Back Wolfspeed IPO

Leading U.S. LED company Cree will be setting back the spinout of its radio frequency and power product businesses, the company CEO Chuck Swoboda told analysts Tuesday.

The spin-off of Wolfspeed will probably be delayed to second half of 2016, a Triangle Business Journal cited Swoboda saying.

The company announced in September 2015, it would be separating its power and radio frequency product business into a new public entity called Wolfspeed, which will be led by board member Frank Plastina.

According to the company’s Chief Financial Officer Mike MicDevitt about US $2 million in IPO costs were included in the quarter results because of “a delay in the anticipated timing of the Wolfspeed IPO.”

The business sector makes up 6% of the company’s overall revenue in the quarter amounting to $27.5 million.
