Stainless Steel BG | Wariti WengWe learn and grow together day by day to improve ourselves for successful career development.
I chose to join Walsin Lihwa because the company’s vison for Industry 4.0 met my expectations for my Substitute Military Service in the category of R&D. Joining Walsin Lihwa has indeed let me realize systematic teamwork is key to the success of Industry 4.0.
I was responsible for a system simulation project for one year to set up communication channels, learn how to use the system simulation software, and try to help more people understand the project to facilitate the project implementation. Afterwards, I went to the Yenshui plant for a two-week internship to gain a better understanding of production lines and then went to the Procurement Division in Taichung to promote procurement transparency while collecting and organizing the information on waste acid disposal companies. At present, I am a seed instructor of system simulation and also continue my on-the-job learning. My rotation between different jobs at Walsin Lihwa has helped me step out of my comfort zone to benefit myself from different perspectives.
Walsin Lihwa offered me my first real job and I’m grateful to Walsin Lihwa for providing so many opportunities for young people to grow and hone themselves. I grew up in Taipei but joined the Stainless Steel Business Group at the Yenshui plant in South Taiwan, where I engaged in the stainless steel coil business and wore a safety helmet for nine years. Afterwards, I was transferred to the Commodity Business Group to explore the upstream of industry.
I hope I can function like a sponge to absorb new knowledge of different subjects and develop independent thinking skills. Deeply realizing the only thing unchanged is change and the importance of flexibility, I hope to be courageous enough for calculated risk-taking at the newly established Commodity Business Group to drive personal growth while inspiring my peers to grow together with me.
I joined Walsin Lihwa as a mold design engineer using computer-aided engineering (CAE) tools for mold design at the Changshu plant. However, I didn’t even hear about so many molds at the plant when I was back in school, not to mention any hands-on experience in real-world design. I started with cold-rolled plugs to step by step learn about the molds for cold and heat processing and began to familiarize myself with the design of molds at the Yenshui plant and some customers, I became increasingly knowledgeable of stainless steel mill operations through my experience in design, outsourcing, inspection upon delivery, and on-production-line tests of mold properties,
Later on, I was responsible for mold design as well as some cold and heat processing recommendations at the Stainless Steel Business Group. What I do at Walsin Lihwa is quite challenging because considerable knowledge in mechanics, mechanisms, materials science, thermodynamics, geometry, manufacturing technology, process control, CAE data analysis, and programing languages is required for combining such knowledge with hands-on experiences in production lines. Now I’m trying to independently develop modules of commercial system add-ons to link such modules with real-world CAE applications and apply the concept of CAE mold design to production line manufacturing. I also continue studying by myself and thinking how to realize the design concept by leveraging today’s new technologies.
The greatest gain for me at the big family of Walsin Lihwa is ongoing learning and growth at work.
I try to imagine myself as an empty glass to learn things new with an open mind. The steel rolling department in which I work helps everyone feel satisfied with efficient and fulfilling teamwork and a strong sense of mission because of the mission-critical resources, reasonable division of labor, and strong logistics support it provides.
At Walsin Lihwa, I enjoy dedicating myself to steel rolling equipment improvement, capacity bottleneck breakthroughs, and product quality enhancement by taking part in installation of more roughing mills, laying head modification, as well as improvement of entanglements and scratch injuries. What I’ve experienced is very important to me, and the team support readily available to me has been keeping me moving steadfastly forward.
I joined the Human Resources Division of Walsin Lihwa when I was fresh out of college and therefore experienced the company’s people-oriented corporate culture at the very beginning. What I do is intended for a qualitative change of Walsin Lihwa employees through systematic employee recruitment and training. What’s the most important in this regard is to retain capable and talented young people for management succession development through various projects with many opportunities available at the company. For example, I took part in the establishment of PT Walsin Nickel Industrial Indonesia, including the new venture’s dynamic talent database development and large-scale employee recruitment.
During the establishment process, I worked with a team and individual team members contributed their respective strengths. I benefited greatly from interdepartmental coordination and cooperation that strengthened my competencies in these regards. As I can see more from my perspective of human resources now, I’m well aware that the Industry 4.0 transformation being concretely implemented at Walsin Lihwa is intended for a fundamental change of people in addition to active business expansion.
