Development of Hybrid Electrical Machining Technologies and Their Intelligent Integration for a Productivity 4.0-Based High- Precision Mold Manufacturing System(II)( I )

計畫英文摘要。（五百字以內）Due to global competition, the companies in Taiwan have to improve the quality andmanufacturing efficiency of their products. The idea of industry 4.0 factory, widely used inGermany connecting all machines and devices and forming a collaborative community, has beenconsidered by government officers as a possible solution for Taiwan manufacturing industry.Accordingly, professors of universities as well as engineers of research institutes should alsoadjust their research focuses and try to solve the industrial problems. In order to improve theefficiency of Taiwan manufacturing companies, we propose to develop an industry 4.0 integratedmanufacturing system for high precision molds, including electrical discharging (EDM), Electrochemical machining (ECM) and Laser manufacturing machines. The manufacturing data will betransferred among machines and analyzed to on-line adjust the machines. During the researchperiod, the professors of National Central University and National Sun Yat-sen University willclosely cooperate with engineers from Chmer Ltd. and Gentec Ltd. companies and MetalIndustries Research & Development Center (MIRDC). The techniques developed in this projectcan be used by industrial companies to improve the product quality and lower the manufacturing cost.
