Method Cross-Disciplinary Research Team Promotion Model

 Development direction of special features R&D team emphasizes integration new technology to reduce
labor, increase efficiency, prevent damage from natural disasters and improve industry competitiveness
 A five year period is divided into two phases of promotion
Substantial Research Capabilities/Development of Strong Features

 The first phase (year 1~3)

 First Phase (Year 1~3): Organize cross-discipline teams, develop equipment and conduct research
according to projected industry demand; plan cross-domain curriculum.
 Second Phase (Year 3~5): Turn key technologies into commercial products or conduct technology transfer;
establish cross domain curriculum

 Application of robotic arms in industry has
already reached a high level of maturity with
broad application in the performance dirty,
monotonous, difficult, and dangerous tasks.
This is helping with the mission to automating
production and increasing production.
 Industrial robot arm applications include
automated painting, faucet valve assembly,
phone assembly, metal processing, welding,
screwing, deburring, capacitor assembly, etc.
 In the future industrial robot arms can be
applied to agriculture work, with automated

Results
 Course materials include the latest applications of robot arms in the
industrial sector, basic control of robot arms and vision technology, PC-
Based human-machine interfaces, and Yaskawa robot arm applications.
 Based on innovative education design and NPUST’s “technological
agriculture” research, simple robotic arms made to grip small fruits;
students are trained to design robots that can be manually operated,
autonomously plan routes, and which have memory capabilities. Afterwards,
competitions are held.
 38 students were provided coaching to help them obtain professional
licenses
