MIRDC Inaugurates Asia-Pacific Vacuum Heat Treatment Synergy Center, Advancing Taiwan's Precision Machinery Industry
Mr. Lai, the MIRDC President, emphasized ECM Group's significance as a global equipment supplier, noting its extensive collaborations with over 400 companies across 29 countries and regions, and its substantial international market share. MIRDC, he noted, has established itself in developing composite heat treatment, energy-efficient processes, and AI-enabled testing and verification, achievements recognized by awards such as the R&D100 Awards and the Edison Awards. Specializing in complex structures and precision transmission components, MIRDC utilizes heat treatment simulation analysis to identify optimal process parameters, enabling precise predictions of post-processing quality and facilitating the selection of process parameters tailored to specific product or functional needs before commencing production. The resulting superior dimensional accuracy guarantees compliance with international standards. Through its technology transfers and industrial services, MIRDC has assisted over 50 domestic manufacturers, including Hota, Sha Yang Ye, Ming Shun and New Kailung Gear, in integrating into supply chains of major automakers, including Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, JLR and Ford, collectively securing orders worth more than NT$600 million.
The partnership between MIRDC and ECM Group has resulted in the establishment of a new facility, serving as a pilot platform for international development and benefiting domestic industries. This collaboration integrates high-pressure gas quenching, connecting the three parties: ECM Group (equipment & technical experience), MIRDC (process), and industry players (verification) , fostering synergies in technology, human resources, products, and applications. A significant aspect of this strategic alliance is its capacity to localize the development process that was previously outsourced to France. This localization is expected to reduce the development timeline drastically, from the earlier 1-2 months to just 1-2 weeks. It will balance quality, delivery, and cost while also providing local potential customers with product development and trial production solutions. The Center is slated to elevate the standards of heat treatment technology development and manufacturing in Taiwan. Furthermore, plans are underway for the Center to support the local development of energy-efficient Crystal growth semiconductor equipment and components through its collaboration with ECM Group. This move is projected to strengthen the global competitiveness of Taiwan's semiconductor and precision machinery industry.
