馬拉巴栗苗木編織目前完全是以人工方式進行，長時間編織會造成操作者的手部傷害，再加上勞工老年化、少量化的問題，將馬拉巴栗編織自動化是有急迫需求的。本研究綜合考量人工編織動作及機台結構的穩定性，提出全新的直線編織軌跡，再利用多元機構設計編織機達到編織動作要求，並設計苗木機械應力實驗和編織參數實驗，將操作者的編織經驗量化。研究結果顯示，所研發的五編型編織機可以在不損傷苗木的情況下完成馬拉巴栗編織成品，而馬拉巴栗苗木莖部直徑、機械應力與體態皆有可能是影響編織的重要因素。期望未來編織機功能能更加完善，早日實現馬拉巴栗編織全自動化。

The weaving of Malabar-chestnut trees is currently performed entirely manually. Long-term weaving will cause hand injuries to the operator. Coupled with the problem of aging and downsizing of labor, there is an urgent need to automate the weaving of Malabar-chestnut. After comprehensively studied the actions of manual weaving for the five-branch Malabar-chestnut trees and the robustness of machine structure, this research proposed a novel linear weaving trajectory. The weaving machine for the Malabar-chestnut is composed of a variety of mechanism designs to meet the weaving track and weaving requirements. In addition, the seedling mechanical stress experiments are conducted and through a series of experiments the weaving parameters are obtained to quantify the weaving experience of operators. The research results show that the five-branch braiding machine developed can complete the Malabar-chestnut weaving without damaging the trees. It concluded that the diameter, mechanical stress, and posture of the Malabar-chestnut trees are the important weaving parameters that affect the weaving. It is hoped that the functions of the five-branch braiding machine will be more perfect in the future, and the full automation of the Malabar-chestnut weaving should be realized as soon as possible.
