2025-9-22 Commercial Times

EMO 2025, the world's premier exhibition for machine tools and manufacturing technology, will take place in Hannover, Germany, from September 22 to 26. Under the exhibition theme,"5-axis Excellence Beyond Compare," GOODWAY & AWEA will showcase their latest generation of 5-axis machining technologies and advanced automation solutions. Through this comprehensive presentation, the Group will demonstrate the innovation, engineering expertise, and global competitiveness of Taiwan's machine tool industry, once again capturing attention on the international stage.

In recent years, GOODWAY & AWEA have made significant investments in the development of advanced 5-axis machine tools, continuously introducing high-end solutions capable of competing with the world's leading manufacturers and attracting strong interest from global markets. Among the Group's most notable innovations is the GOODWAY GMT-2000 5-axis Multi-tasking Machine, one of the most highly acclaimed machine tools introduced in recent years. The GMT-2000 received both the 2024 Taiwan Excellence Award and the Machine Tool Industry Energy-Saving Gold Award, recognizing its outstanding achievements in performance, productivity, and environmental sustainability. The machine features 9-axis control with simultaneous 5-axis machining capability and incorporates an upper milling spindle together with a lower turret to enable balanced cutting operations, significantly improving machining efficiency and process integration. Compared with conventional machining methods, the GMT-2000 delivers substantially higher productivity while maintaining exceptional energy efficiency, reflecting GOODWAY's continued leadership in advanced machine tool development and sustainable manufacturing technologies. The GMT-2000 has already achieved successful installations in both domestic and international markets, further validating its technological excellence and strong global competitiveness.

Another major highlight comes from the AWEA AU-680 5-axis Machining Center. The machine is equipped with an in-house developed twin-drive high-performance rotary table capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 1,000 kg, while maintaining a compact machine footprint. This combination makes the AU-680 particularly well suited for the machining of medium- to large-sized precision components in industries such as aerospace, medical devices, automotive, and mold & die manufacturing. When integrated with an automatic pallet storage and exchange system, the AU-680 elevates single-machine automation to a new level. The solution not only enhances productivity and machine utilization, but also helps manufacturers address ongoing labor shortages and workforce challenges. Through the AU-680, AWEA demonstrates its ability to identify critical industry needs and deliver innovative technologies that create tangible value for customers.

As the global manufacturing landscape continues to evolve at an unprecedented pace, market demands are becoming increasingly diverse and dynamic. In response to these trends, GOODWAY & AWEA have established a comprehensive 5-axis machine tool portfolio encompassing nine product series and more than 70 machine configurations, enabling the Group to address a wide range of application requirements across multiple industries. From aerospace components and medical devices to automotive parts and precision molds, GOODWAY & AWEA provide highly customized and flexible manufacturing solutions tailored to specific customer needs. This extensive product offering, combined with continuous innovation and engineering expertise, further strengthens the Group's position as one of Taiwan's leading machine tool brands.

The year 2025 marks a particularly significant milestone for GOODWAY.
