Taiwan’s Machinery Industry – Current State and Development Potential
According to IEK Consulting, in 2018 Taiwan’s machinery industry had an export value of US$27.4 billion. The top three export markets – China, the United States and Japan – accounted for a combined output value of NT$1.18 trillion, an increase of about 7.3% and a continued record high. A number of factors, primarily the stabilization of global oil prices and exchange rates, a recovery of the major industrial economies of Europe at the end of 2016, as well as an industrial upgrade in China leading to an expansion in automation and demand for new equipment, have contributed to remarkable growth in the output values of two industries: high-tech equipment and metal-processing machine tools. While 2017 saw declines from 2016 in a few categories (namely, industrial machinery, other machinery, and metal molds), other secondary machinery industries in Taiwan, including high-tech equipment, metal-processing machine tools, mechanical transmission components, and fluid machinery, all showed increasing output values.
The Machine Tool Industry in Taiwan
Providing Global Equipment Users with the Best Solutions

Approximately 90% of Taiwan’s machine tool and component vendors can be found within a 60km radius in Greater Taichung. All aspects of the machine tool industry, from the manufacture of parts and components to the assembly of whole machine tools, takes place in close proximity here, making central Taiwan the world’s only industry cluster for machine tools and components. Because of the constant quality upgrades and price advantages this creates, Taiwanese components have become the DNA of machine tools in many countries around the world.

Upstream machine tool components include ball screws and linear slides. In particular, Taiwan has become the world’s second largest supplier of ball screws. Meanwhile, Hiwin Technologies Corp. and other companies adequately support Taiwan’s domestic market demand and mainly provide components such as spindles required in machine tool assembly.

Ball screw has been already applied in kinds of position and measurement machines at precise technology and precise machine industries. And the electric grippers have already become big roles in the process of precise machines. The following are main demands for miniature ball screw for the electric gripper. 1. High accuracy: With 3D bridge design, XCKX0402 can get outstanding operation. With the special engineering materials, the circulation system can absorb the noise during the operation. With unique circulation design, it can get higher rigidity and better control on thermal deformation. With these characteristics, XCKX0402 can get stable performance and accuracy in rotating. 2. Longer travel distance and wider range: With XCKX0402, the electric gripper can reach better speed and distance in low RPM. Because of the unique modeling, It can reduce the space to increase the flexibility for machines. Regarding the above demands, this is why XCKX0402 exists.
Y-axis capability is an enhancement to a turn/mill machine tool. The constraint of two axes of linear motion is inacceptable on some applications. While there are techniques, such as polar coordinate programming, which use axis interpolation to get three-axis like cuts, there remain some workpiece features that simply can't be cut using the two linear axes available on a standard turn/mill machine. An example is drilling holes in the corners of a milled flat on a cylinder. You can't get to the corners of the flat without Y-axis. Adding Y-axis increases the linear motion capability of a turn/mill machine tool by 33 percent. It's best to think of a Y-axis equipped turn/mill center as two independent machines tools in one. First there is the turning center. It operates exactly like any other 2-axis lathe. The second machine-tool-in-one is a four-axis machining center.
A) Wisdom automation: The machine itself has an built-in automatic robot arm plus finished conveyor belt, which is matched with the machine's double spindle design. Not only can the machining of the A and B faces of the workpiece be completed, but also two different workpieces can be processed independently of each spindle to meet the various needs of the customer. If combined with an automatic feeder (vibration plate), it will be upgraded to an automated production line with 24 hours of unmanned machining to achieve the maximum production capacity with the lowest space and minimum investment. ?(B) Double spindle: The machine adopts the same specification dual-spindle design. The difference between the previous and the main spindle is that the sub-spindle specifications of the general machine are smaller than the positive spindle. Therefore, the parts can only be processed in a refined manner when machining. Shows machine efficiency.
Product design: TECO Release IE3 high-efficiency flameproof motor, snatch the market of the high-efficiency motors with explosion-proof. Safety: The product has a non-conductive explosion fan, and it does not produce sparks and overheating when the motor is start-up and operation status. Carbon reduction: Can be used with the inverter and exactly control the motor to save energy. Convenient Option: Multiple Application Transformation Package (vibration test, temperature test design, brake, change pole, Encoder ..), increases the convenience of customer. The dual-frequency design is available in 50Hz and 60Hz countries. CSA explosion-proof certification is also suitable for North American mining areas, chemical environment, and the above characteristics make it possible to comply with local regulations regardless of which area is sold.
