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.

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.
Our solution product integrates measure, storage and analysis. All in one design, you only need to use your smart phone and or set up the LoRa gateway server for TiMS sensors then you could monitor the status(including temperature, 3 axis vibration and power frequency) of motors through Tatung Cloud(Microsoft Azure database system) on both website and smart phone App. Hybrid wireless communication structure combines kilometer-level "Long Range Low Power" (LoRa) communication tech (covers more than 2 km) and "Bluetooth Low Energy" (BLE) transmission for TiMS. 1-st Contactless power frequency sensing tech (in Taiwan) and spectrum analysis help user monitor the status of all motors more effectively.

“The biggest challenge the shoe industry has is how do you create a robot that puts the lace into the shoe...<br /> That’s a complete manual process today. There is no technology for that.” said Kasper Rorsted, CEO of Adidas, when interviewed by Financial Times in April 2017. <br /> <br /> Unbeknownst to Mr. Rorsted, the world’s first automated lacing machine has been developed and patented recently. Using 3D stereo vision to guide robot lacing through eyelets imprecisely punched by labors, Auto Lacer is capable of lacing at speed approaching that of factory worker. The algorithm also detects deviations in how shoes are placed onto the machine and adjust robot’s lacing path accordingly. <br /> <br /> Several major shoe brands, both sports and casual shoes, are evaluating Smart Lacer as part of their efforts to automate shoe production processes. The machine also demonstrates that by deploying advanced vision technologies robots can carry out tasks previously considered only possible by humans.

Spectral Irradiance Meter with Dual Modes Ai111 is made for the lux and optical inspection market, especially fit the need of plant growing lighting inspection application. Ai111, which not just support high illuminance measurement, but exclusively Self-defined Wavelength Range, to measure PPFD more precisely, is the best solution for the plant and general lighting measurement. FWHM 12~15nm is adopted by the most portable devices in the market. However, FWHM at this range is hard to produce precise measuring results because narrow wavelength is a characteristic of LED. Apacer Spectral Irradiance Meter Ai111 can provide better measuring solution in terms of FWHM 5.5nm. For different properties of crops and plants, using self-defined wavelength range function can easily observe measuring results without PC. If connected with PC, ASP software also can provide diverse measuring comparison under multiple wavelength definition.
