Metal Industries Research & Development Centre

Leader of the Innovation Generation
MIRDC, an organization funded by the R.O.C. government, the United Nations Special Foundation, and the International Labour Organization in 1963, is engaged in the research, development, and promotion of production and management technologies required for metal and related industries. The Centre is a non-profit R&D institution, and the only research institute with headquarters based in Kaohsiung.
Over half a century of companionship and cultivation, the Centre continues to assist in industrial upgrading and transformation in response to policy development and the trend of the times, with five major industries as the core development, proactively promotes technical innovation and high-value applications. The Centre has not only strengthened the link between domestic and foreign technology R&D and the integration of talent and resources, but also established a cross-discipline R&D ecosystem. MIRDC has become a premier international metal-technology R&D institute with cross-discipline development leading to value creation for the industry.

Smart Multifunctional Periodontal Pathology Quick Screening System (SMPPQSS)

Solution Description

Smart Healthcare

Smart Multifunctional Periodontal Pathology Quick Screening System (SMPPQSS) is the first product able to automatically identify the position of teeth and then to calculate the distribution area of dental plaque simultaneously. The system also provides a new painless gingivitis examination method that could relief examining discomfort. Neither the need of the plaque disclosing tablet nor a probe to penetrate into the patient’s periodontal pocket to determine the degree of periodontitis.
Once all tooth-related data is automatically filled into the periodontal digits, the medical record sheet is uploaded to the system directly. It shortens the process to less than 10 minutes, greatly reducing the discomfort of patients during the examination as well as shortening the time doctors need to diagnose and record.
SMPPQSS is easy to operate and portable. Dentists or dental assistants can check periodontal health quickly with no restriction of facilities, patients can receive a more convenient medical care even in remote rural areas or at home, or with limited mobility.

The Continuous Type Heat Treatment System Equipment for Micro Parts(CMHT)

Specially for micro parts with a diameter less than 2mm, the CMHT is equipped with integrate automatic feeding system, automatic monitoring and carburizing quenching furnace for real-time adjustment, innovative oil tank, collecting device and intelligent digital services. It provides the heat treatment industry with customized, intelligent production solution. Its advantages are as follows ‧ CMHT has 100% collecting rate (50~60% for traditional equipment), 99% yield rate (50~65% for traditional one). ‧ CMHT reduces heat treatment schedule from 30 days to 2 days only. Based on demand, CMHT can rapidly replace process modules to substitute whole traditional heat treatment equipment and price of CMHT is only half of traditional one. ‧ Introducing intelligent digital service function, CMHT transforms experiences of traditional equipment into data decision, reduces reliance on human experiences, sets up industrial IoT solution and provides heat treatment industry with smart manufacturing via cloud services. ‧ Won the international honor of R&D 100 Awards and Edison Awards.
