Xiao Wenlong, president of Forwell Technology Group and executive director of Taiwan Machinery Association, said that the wars between Ukraine and Russia and Israel and Kazakhstan, and the Sino-US trade frictions have not yet stopped, and the uncertainty of protectionism has added many unknowns to the international development situation and future economic prosperity, causing the long-sluggish economic prosperity to remain unclear, and most industries are at a loss and stagnant. Among them, the machinery industry such as machine tools has become one of the hardest hit industries under geopolitical and tariff barriers. The export value will continue to decline in 2024. In particular, under the protectionist national policies of the newly elected US President Trump's "America First" and "Made in America", the industry supply chain is bound to face the challenge of restructuring again. The sluggish economic prosperity will face a more severe test, and it will also bring another wave of market impact to the machinery industry.

Xiao Wenlong also pointed out that China and the United States are the two major export destinations for Taiwan's machine tools and other mechanical products. Recently, due to political intervention, the cross-strait market has been greatly affected by economic development, the market situation has become rigid, and corporate confidence is low. Although the mainland market is huge, local competitors are rising, and inflation cannot be effectively curbed. The interest rate cut is not enough. Facing fierce competition is inevitable. Taiwan's machinery manufacturers need to invest more in innovative designs and actively upgrade their companies and market competitiveness to be sustainable. In addition, the Sino-US trade conflict may intensify, and the industrial supply chain will face the difficulty of reorganization after the epidemic. Nearly half of the machinery manufacturers have a neutral view on the development of the machinery market this year (2025), and the market strategy has changed to wait and see and respond quickly.

He also said that although the market economy is still not optimistic this year, the AI ​​intelligentization trend will continue to advance and will not stop. The prevalence of AI will accelerate the development of "Industry 4.0" smart manufacturing, and another new competitive form will be formed in the global machinery industry. In the face of market changes and the advancement of international trends, the machinery industry should actively upgrade and transform to develop core technical content that meets the requirements of intelligent production, meet the world trend of manufacturing industry upgrading and upgrading to respond to smart manufacturing, and achieve the goal of fully grasping business opportunities and rebuilding market position.

Xiao Wenlong emphasized that if the machinery industry wants to have the conditions for survival and competitive advantages in the future market, it is necessary for the product to have AI intelligent design. It is recommended that machinery manufacturers should introduce innovative products that meet the requirements of AI intelligence, ESG, energy conservation and environmental protection as soon as possible to prepare for future market demand in advance. In particular, the functional design with low carbon and energy saving has also become the key to market competitiveness. For the current difficulties faced by the machine tool machinery industry, the industry can respond by catering to international trends such as "Industry 4.0" smart manufacturing and ESG environmental sustainability goals, and formulate corporate management, production and sales reform plans to strengthen competitiveness and achieve the goal of sustainable development in the future.

Currently, Forwell Group has invested in the development of low-carbon equipment that meets environmental sustainability, including the research and development of low-carbon emission intelligent rapid mold change system plant equipment and related components. It is expected that new products with innovative breakthrough designs will be launched in the near future, and it has begun to create a production environment that meets the carbon tax reduction standards. The entire series of products have also been gradually developed and designed to meet the demands of energy conservation and carbon reduction to ensure that all products meet the ESG sustainable standard goals.
