During the virtual press conference, Taiwan’s finest hardware and hand tool innovations were exemplified by these companies:
-Jing Fong industry Co., Ltd. – Prevailing Torque Type Hexagonal Nuts with Flange
Jing Fong’s new take on the standard nut-and-thread design improves contact tightness without stripping the threads, allowing for extraordinary anti-loosening and anti-vibration ability. This leap forward in driver safety has prompted German auto-manufacturer Daimler to utilize the Jing Fong nut technology in their luxury Mercedes Benz automobiles.
- Medical Intubation Technology Corporation – X2000 HD Videoscope
This videoscope series have already been exported to the United States and more than 20 countries in Europe. The technology, which was originally used in medical endoscopy, allows auto and aircraft repair technicians to see the inside of an engine and diagnose problems, saving disassembly time and avoiding related maintenance risks. For example, the maintenance personnel at the Ferrari Maintenance Factory in Italy took out an industrial endoscope and extended the thin tube at the front end into the engine to investigate the fault through the screen. These videoscopes account for 4 to 7 million USD in revenue for Medical Intubation.
- Sheng Tai Brassware Co., Ltd. – JUSTIME YES 2 Single Handle Wall-Mounted Basin Mixer
Recipient of the “2020 Taiwan Excellence Award” and the “2019 Red Dot Award,” Sheng Tai’s modernized faucet is designed as a Y-shaped geometric column with agile lines and circles, forming a perfect ratio. Free of past redundancies, it provides an attractive appearance with the purest composition and a new handle design using metal cutting techniques to increase the holding torque, thus presenting a delicate texture.
- Airboss Air Tools Co., Ltd. – Air Discharge Adjustment Pneumatic Wrench
Dispensing of the need to set up additional control switches, this high-quality, newly developed pneumatic wrench effectively solves the shortcomings and limitations of existing pneumatic tools which lack the ability to change speed and torque once they are powered up. The pneumatic has many applications, such as for manufacturing and assembling vehicles, auto locomotives and bicycles to increase production capacity.
Taiwan Excellence will continue to promote innovative products through our official social media communities and professional network platforms such as LinkedIn and FB to enhance Taiwan’s reliable, high-quality, and craftsmanship image of hardware hand tools and fasteners in the international market, and further help the industry develop and find blue oceans amongst the digitization trend.
