Using Robots at Pinggu Layer Chicken Farming Project
This project is one of the most integrated and modern egg production plant. It has been designed as a closed system to prevent diseases from spreading into the chicken houses. A total of 3 million layer chickens produce 2.4 million eggs a day. Each and every process, from the very first step of mixing chicken feed through to the final stage of egg delivery from the plants, is controlled by automated machinery. The chicken feed is supplied through a pipe to chicken farms. Once the eggs are laid, they are delivered on conveyor belts to a storage and separation area within the plant. Mechanical arms like those in automobile assembly plants (robotics) are used to put the eggs on shelves. The entire production process is controlled by computer systems.
TRUE Service Robot
Robots that render more efficiency in services. The capability of the “Service Robot Plug & Play" can be adjusted to suit each service business according to the accessories installed. For example, in restaurant business, the robots can serve food and beverages as well as take orders; in advertising business, the robots can recommend products and promotion on the screen.
6. Cyber Security
Formulating cybersecurity policy, organizing trainings on the Personal Data Protection Act for employees and senior management, and establishing the Security Operation Center (SOC) to oversee system security.
