Smart Manufacturing
HIWIN is a leading innovator in smart manufacturing, actively responding to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in mitigating the impact of climate change through production activities and promoting sustainable manufacturing practices, HIWIN has implemented various smart manufacturing measures within its factories to enhance production efficiency and reduce environmental impact. To achieve this, we have formulated six key development strategies and three implementation phases aimed at continuously increasing per capita output, establishing a sustainable production model, and effectively minimizing environmental impact. These efforts not only strengthen the company’s competitiveness but also contribute to the realization of a green economy.
HIWIN will continue to expand the coverage and maturity of its smart manufacturing initiatives while leveraging the mechanisms established in the first and second phases to consistently collect production data and foster a culture of continuous improvement. Through digital transformation in manufacturing, the Company aims to achieve a highly efficient and sustainable production model. HIWIN maintains its corporate competitiveness through various business strategies, including brand positioning, innovative design, and smart manufacturing.
In recent years, affected by broader economic conditions, HIWIN’s output per capita decreased from NT$7.38 million in 2022 to NT$6.19 million in 2023. Despite the continued economic downturn, HIWIN’s early investment in smart manufacturing and automation helped enhance product competitiveness, leading to a slight recovery in 2024, with output per capita rising to NT$6.23 million. Looking ahead to 2025, the company will continue deepening and expanding its efforts in this direction, targeting an output per capita of NT$7.40 million. At the same time, in response to global trends in corporate sustainability and ESG, HIWIN is developing a unique smart production model that balances production efficiency with long-term competitiveness.
