After a significant 20% increase in production value in 2004 compared to the previous year, Taiwan's rubber and plastics machinery industry faced a slight decline last year due to a sharp drop in the output of injection molding machines. Confronted with economic downturns and growing competition from mainland China, the industry has been actively investing in research and development to enhance product technology and quality.
At the 2006 Taipei International Rubber & Plastics Industry Exhibition, Hu Yongjin, chairman of the Plastics and Rubber Machinery Committee of the Taiwan District Machinery Association and president of Bioplastics, emphasized that under challenging market conditions, Taiwan’s injection molding machine manufacturers have introduced high-performance models through continuous R&D efforts.
Taichung Seiki showcased its Vα-150-Hybrid electric hybrid injection molding machine, featuring advanced servo control. Unlike traditional hybrid models, this machine combines energy efficiency with the stability of all-electric injection, while an accumulator stores oil pressure energy to achieve an impressive injection speed of up to 1200 mm/s. Lin Fuquan, the company's marketing manager, noted that this model is ideal for producing high-viscosity or thin-walled components such as memory cards, IC cards, and battery cases, particularly in the computer, telecommunications, and electronics sectors.
Bioplastics unveiled a high-speed injection molding machine with an injection speed of 1500 mm/s, delivering excellent product quality. Hu Yongjin demonstrated a PC-made card shell at the exhibition, which remained intact even when bent forcefully. This was attributed to the machine’s advanced pressure-keeping system.
The CLF-180TX pressure multi-circuit machine, developed by another manufacturer, significantly reduces processing time and lowers production costs. For instance, it can produce PET preforms (32 mm diameter, 75 grams) in just 28 seconds per cycle with 48 cavities.
Nanxun introduced a BMC injection molding machine, priced at half the cost of foreign models. It also launched a double-template pin-die injection molding machine, using a new clamping mechanism that cuts the machine table length by 30%, reducing both weight and investment costs.
In the two-color and multi-color molding segment, companies like Quan Lifa, Baisu, Nanxun, and Zhenxiong presented various models. The Nanxun TNRX-230 dual-color machine uses a fixed Mold base and replaceable molds, allowing for lower mold costs—reducing them to one-third of traditional methods. Zhenxiong’s direct-pressure two-color machine features a rotating turntable on the second board, enabling efficient two-material or two-color injection.
All-electric injection molding machines from Taichung Seiki, Zhenxiong, and Qunji were also on display. According to Wang Zhengqing of the Taiwan Machinery Industry Association, an all-electric R&D alliance has been established, predicting widespread adoption in high-value industries such as computers, telecommunications, medical devices, and precision machinery due to their high speed, energy efficiency, and low noise.
In the blow molding sector, Fengji Iron Works highlighted its HBS series high-speed hollow molding machines, capable of producing square and round barrels ranging from 10 to 20 liters. A 20-liter barrel can be produced in just 27–28 seconds, meeting international container standards.
Wanglin Machinery’s Beaver-B series compact injection blower offers one-time molding with no waste, featuring up to 16 cavities per membrane. It produces smooth, high-precision bottles suitable for medicine, cosmetics, beverages, and detergents, with a cycle time of only 4.5 seconds.
Peripheral equipment manufacturers like Meide and Yuding are enhancing factory automation with products such as measuring machines, proportional valves, and mold temperature controllers. Fuwei Seiki introduced a fully automatic die change carriage, controlled by a single button, offering both full and semi-automatic mold handling. Xiao Wenlong, president of Fuwei Precision Machinery, noted that this trolley is unique to Taiwan and the mainland, costing about 60% less than Japanese equivalents.
To encourage innovation, the Taiwan Machinery Industry Association continued its “Research, Development, and Innovation Products†contest at the exhibition, highlighting the importance of R&D in maintaining competitiveness. Feng Kewen, chairman of Feng Ke, urged the industry to adopt knowledge management systems to improve information sharing and boost company value.
A hotel Vending Machine is a 24-hour unattended machine that does not require hiring a human to look after it, thus avoiding traditional hiring and training costs. In addition, the hotel intelligent vending machine is placed in the hotel room, and there is no need to go out for rent, and the cooperative operation with the hotel can realize the income.
