Longhua University of Science and Technology and Siemens hosted the "Industrial 4.0 Forum"

Longhua University of Science and Technology and Siemens Co., Ltd. co-hosted the "Industrial 4.0 Forum" on May 8, 104 in the International Conference Hall on the third floor of the French people Building.

The "Industrial 4.0 Forum" invited political Councillor Yan Hongsen of the Executive Yuan, Fan Jie Manager of Siemens, Professor Chen Zhengxiong of the Department of Mechanical Engineering of ZTE University, and Wu Xiaosansan, Chairman of the China Association for the Development of multiple Wisdom, to give lectures on the development and response direction of Industrial 4.0. President GE Zixiang of Longhua University of Science and Technology, 55 industry representatives and teachers from technical colleges and universities all attended the event, which was packed and the atmosphere was warm.

The concept of "the fourth Industrial Revolution" was first put forward by Germany in 2011 to enable industry to combine information technology, cloud, big data, Internet of things, artificial intelligence and other technologies, so as to fully digitize and intelligentize the manufacturing industry. When Germany carried out industrial 4.0, the focus was on training talents in technical and vocational education.

In response to the development trend of Industry 4.0, the Industry Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of China has put forward the "Science and Technology Development Plan of Productivity 4.0", strengthened industry-university cooperation with the Ministry of Science and Technology, and trained 4.0 talents of productive forces jointly with the Ministry of Education. Therefore, Taiwan's Industry 4.0 will integrate machinery, electrical and electronics, information network, management, creative design and manufacturing and other industries to cultivate cross-disciplinary talents.

In his speech, President GE Zixiang of Longhua University of Science and Technology first welcomed the visit of Yan Hongsen, the political commissar of the Executive Yuan, and the warm participation of people from the industrial and educational circles, hoping that through the horizontal integration and connection among various industries, combined with technical and vocational education, starting from taking root to train cross-disciplinary talents, we will create another peak of economic development in the future era of Industrial 4.0.

The four scholars and experts who gave keynote speeches in this "Industrial 4.0 Forum" all gave incisive speeches. First of all, under the title of "Science and Technology Policy and Productivity 4.0," Administrative Councillor Yan Hongsen of the Executive Yuan first expounded the blueprint of the country's overall science and technology policy plan, explaining that Taiwan's version of Industry 4.0 is the productivity 4.0 being promoted by the government. and let the people have a sense of the development and implementation of science and technology policies in the future. At the same time, political Commissar Yan also pointed out that the future decline in Taiwan's population is an opportunity rather than a crisis, which can make people think about how Taiwan will develop into a small and beautiful technological country in the future.

Next on the stage is Manager Fan of Siemens, sharing the experience of Siemens in promoting Industrial 4.0, emphasizing that Industrial 4.0 needs to be adjusted from design to after-sales service in order to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises.

Then, Professor Chen Zhengxiong of ZTE University has a complete discussion on how to transform "intelligent multi-axis composite processing technology" into an intelligent chemical factory under the industrial 4.0 trend, and summarizes that the future development trend of the factory will be digitization and intelligence.

Finally, Wu Hsiao-San, chairman of the Taiwan Association for the Development of multiple Wisdom, explained that when the University of Science and Technology is faced with industrial 4.0, the focus is on know why, and only by pluralistic integration and systematic thinking, and with competitive forces to strengthen its own strength, can it break through the predicament. Chairman Wu particularly praised the order-based employment program of Longhua University of Science and Technology, through the cooperation between academia and industry to cultivate relevant talents, not only to shorten the gap between learning and application, but also to solve the employment problem, and its achievements are commendable.

Under the tide of Industry 4.0, Longhua University of Science and Technology is also ready. The university has set up a partner industrial technology research and development center with heavyweight manufacturing companies to jointly develop forward-looking technologies, including "Siemens CNC processing Technology Center", specializing in promoting controller teaching and industrial research; "Global Transmission-Longhua University of Science and Technology Research and Development Center" to develop 3D printing technology. Dongtai processing Technology and Tencent App Center, develop five-axis machining technology and "Lei Liqiang Optoelectronics-Longhua Research and Development Center", delve into atmospheric pressure plasma technology, and are scheduled to plan a 4.0 course in cross-disciplinary industry starting from the 104th academic year. It will include the Internet of things, big data, embedded systems and intelligent robotics, so that students can combine with emerging technologies in industry, while training seed teachers. Expand the industry-university alliance and jointly enter the productivity 4.0.

Longhua University of Science and Technology has won recognition from all walks of life for its pragmatic attitude over the years. For 11 years in a row, Longhua University of Science and Technology has been awarded a grant under the Teaching Excellence Program of the Ministry of Education, making it the largest private university of science and technology in the north of Taichung. It has also been subsidized by the Model University of Science and Technology for three consecutive years, making it the only private university of science and technology north of Taichung.

Longhua University of Science and Technology has also actively cultivated students' practical skills, continuously promoted construction-education cooperation, signed "order-based employment programs" with 104enterprises, offered 57 related courses, and participated in as many as 1500 students. Through the mechanism of students' off-campus internship and guidance teachers, Longhua University of Science and Technology can strengthen the effectiveness of students' internship to enterprises and solve the problem of students' employment and enterprise talent demand at the same time. Longhua University of Science and Technology through cooperation with industry Efforts should be made to improve the development of technical and vocational education in Taiwan so as to train a new generation of liberal science and technology talents with no gap between industry and learning.
