About US

Greetings to all distinguished leaders of industry and academia!

Welcome everyone to open this technical booklet, "2024: A Dragon's Leap into Promising Futures", to get to reveal the achievements of the MMSL, ITRI. As the general director of MMSL, I sincerely invite you to explore the fruitful demonstration of the past year and also kindly seek your encouragement and guidance!

MMSL has adopted a new slogan this year:

"Intelligent MMSL Enabling an Innovative Future I24S ITRI GO"

"I2" represents the two major areas of machinery: “Intelligent Manufacturing” and “Intelligent Mobility”, and the “4S” echoes the technology strategy blueprint of ITRI in 2035.
System integration: The term “machinery” now encompasses not only individual machine equipment, but also system integration, including concepts like smart factories with equipment integration for production lines.
Sustainable environment: In recent decades, there has been a global wave of net-zero carbon reduction, where alongside our pursuit of technological advancements, we are also actively seeking harmony and coexistence with nature. The use of materials needs to align with the development of green technology.
Smart living: With the increasing maturity of smart technology, AI, and robotics, it is essential to integrate technology into our daily lives, leveraging its capabilities to meet our needs more quickly, conveniently, and intelligently.
resilient Society: We are committed to developing nationally-owned resilient technologies to address risks such as natural disasters and environmental impacts. The goal of our research and development is to assist the country in turning crises into opportunities.

Internally, we set the core philosophy outlined above as our research foundation; externally, we maintain ongoing collaboration and interaction with government, industry, and academia. By staying attuned to the trends of the times and embracing an innovative spirit, we aim to forge new horizons in the industry hand in hand with all research sectors.

Semiconductors, AI machinery, smart vehicles, and sustainable zero-carbon initiatives are currently hot research topics. Over the past year, we have achieved remarkable results in these fields. For instance, our Institute's 2018 startup company, "Green Energy Mobility," collaborated with leading domestic enterprises such as Shihlin Electric, Hotai Motors, and Heraeus Corporation to establish a new subsidiary, "Gochabar," becoming the Institute's first exemplary company to succeed in creating a new startup. In the field of smart vehicles, we partnered with Taoyuan Airport in 2023 to introduce our self-driving technology for employee shuttle operations, making Taoyuan Airport one of the world's only airports with autonomous shuttle services. In the booming semiconductor industry, we launched the " Head-Matrix-ALD" to meet the demand for precision coating, integrating multiple front-end coating processes into one to reduce chip pollution caused by repeated conversions. These globally pioneering technologies have received international recognition and were honored with the 2023 R&D 100 Award in the United States, further demonstrating the leading position of MMSL in Taiwan's semiconductor industry.

MMSL aspires to lead the forefront of the machinery industry. We hope this booklet serves as a valuable resource for you to promptly find solutions when facing research and development challenges. We look forward to more collaboration opportunities in the future and to advancing together with you side by side!
