Machine tool is known as the
"mother of all machines", "mother machine", "mother of
all industries", etc. Therefore, the trend of digital transformation in
the machine tool industry is driving the upgrading of the entire manufacturing
industry. This time, the exhibitors will showcase the outstanding achievements
in each field.
Smart
Manufacturing
Automation and digitalisation of the
production process through intelligent technology can improve production
efficiency and quality. Exhibitors such as KEYENCE Taiwan’s dimensional
measurement series, "Image Dimension Measuring Instrument IM-8000"
and "Handheld Three-dimensional Measuring Instrument XM-5000", have
built-in data report output function, which enables data analysis directly
after measurement and improves the problem of manual measurement and
transcription errors in the past.
ACCUTEX TECHNOLOGIES' "Apoller"
control system adopts the EtherCAT protocol, which has higher control
efficiency and scalability, and can integrate various peripheral devices and
more sensors. With Windows human-machine interface, it can not only achieve
automatic scrap removal, equipment self-diagnosis and automatic fault
notification, but is also the first in the industry to integrate multiple
devices. It is also the first machine in the industry to integrate multiple
devices. With the software, it can be used for BOM import, automatic process
design, automatic wire-cutting programming, and processing task (machine)
assignment with automatic scheduling, urgent parts insertion, etc., to upgrade
the production line towards automation.
BRIGHT JING CHIN MACHINERY's spindle
gripper products are introduced into the automated production line during the
production process. At present, some of the components are processed by Fanuc's
automatic robotic arm to assist in automatic loading and unloading, which
improves the large amount of manpower demand and increases the effect of the
same unit of manpower in the same unit of time by 2 times and enables quick and
flexible switching between mass production lines and small quantity and
multi-species production lines. All manufacturers will be exhibiting related
inspection and control systems to help factories move towards intelligent
production lines.
Data
Analytics and Cloud Computing
Through the application of big data, AI and
other technologies, data analysis of the production process and product
quality, or through cloud computing technology to achieve production data
management and application, optimization of the production process. YINSH
PRECISION has actively introduced the "Virtual-Realistic Integration Core
System for Integrating Information Convergence of Heterogeneous Systems"
and "Enhancing Decision Making Quality through Data Analysis" to meet
the needs of high-end customers at different stages of operation, such as small
quantity, multiple samples, and mass production of customized precision parts.
KAO FONG MACHINERY presents the machine
status in real time through intelligent Internet and performs data analysis and
calculation in local/private cloud database to provide ENDUSER abnormal state
troubleshooting suggestions to achieve the effectiveness of machine maintenance
and stabilize 5-axis spatial accuracy and machining quality to optimize the
machining efficiency of the machine. BRIGHT JING CHIN MACHINERY produces
precision nuts and spindle jaws, also through a variety of equipment and data
integration, the production line towards automation to upgrade and improve
production efficiency.
AIoT
Integrate AI and IoT technologies to
transform the factors of production, such as man, machine, material, method,
and environments, into data resources. The Intelligent 4.0 ballscrew from HIWIN
and the cooling machine system APP from TAIWAN SPINFLO can both utilize smart
IoT technology to monitor machine conditions in real-time, optimizing the
maintenance cycles and effectiveness of machine repairs.
CAMPRO PRECISION already has a good
foundation and application in the original visualization field, monitoring
system, intelligent machine, IIoT, AIOT and other technology platforms;
including the central control system that can control the automated production
line, and the tactical situation system that provides managers with a view of
the operating status of the equipment.
WEXTEN PRECISE's cooler products are paired
with AIOT, which collects a large amount of data such as temperature, flow rate
and pressure, and then uploads the data to the cloud via communication
technologies such as Wi-Fi and LAN (Local Area Network), allowing equipment
owners to understand the operating status of the cooler and further integrating
the data between the equipment and the cooler, enabling predictive maintenance
in advance and visualisation of the data.
Digital
Twin/Human-Machine Collaboration
DA SHIANG AUTOMATION INDUSTRIAL will
showcase tool management solutions in collaboration with ABB robots, and SHE
HONG INDUSTRIAL's products cover automation and intelligent technology,
realising human-free operation of the production process through the
introduction of robotic arms and intelligent control systems; the products are
equipped with key features such as i-Factory, machining estimation and 3D
interference checking, which together drive the modernization of the
manufacturing industry and improve production efficiency, quality and safety.
TOPSDISK is also constantly pursuing technological innovation through digital
technology for simulating and optimizing production processes and intelligent
technology for human-machine collaboration in electronic control.
Blockchain
Technology
The application of blockchain technology to
realize product traceability and quality control enhances product reliability
and trust, and MONGTEC PRECISION uses smart chip technology on the tool holder,
allowing users to use mobile phones to control the use and performance of the
tool holder. The high-speed presses of FAIR OAKS PRECISION can also support the
data extraction function of the network port to realize the digital management
and equipment monitoring function of Industry 4.0.
