Ssangyong held '2017 SUV Technical Forum



[Korea's financial standing hyomun newspaper reporter] Ssangyong Motor has held the '2017 SUV Technical Forum and share the research and development achievements over the POSCO announced cooperation with 26.

Ssangyong is hosted by POSCO participated, was the forum sponsored by the Korea Society of Automotive Engineers are taught in the 'intrinsic value and the evolution of the authentic SUV' theme in the last 24 days in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Korea Institute of Science and Technology Center, Cebu subject presentation in ▲-driven comparison of vehicle dynamics and performance characteristics such as safety ▲ ▲ took place for second frame weight and performance improvement through the application of next-generation high-strength steel frame SUV-type vehicles.

In particular, academic experts published, as well as provided an opportunity through the convergence of SsangYong Motor's design technology and POSCO steel technology overcomes the limitations of the existing frame structure and share synergies and including the development of a frame with the performance of the world's best practices done.

Yichangno Woosuk Mechanical and Automotive Engineering, Professor traveling through the "vehicle motion characteristics and performance comparison of the drive system, located in the engine front (front engine) of the body in the FR method for driving a vehicle body to the rear wheels (rear wheel) is even weight distribution glass explained that ensure the stability and grip. In addition, mainly in the model frame (frame) to be used based on the authentic SUV explained that the noise and vibration and high rigidity frame is absorbed in the space between the road surface and the ride is excellent and quiet, and has a superior off-highway driving ability.

Professor large SUV that require off-road capability and greater traction (towing capacity) with increasing demand for leisure activities Taken together these technical characteristics and development and has made forecast to be extended frames and FR-driven.

Hanbyeonggi Hongik University Professor Emeritus, according to a passenger occupant deaths in the 'next generation frame type SUV safety of the vehicles' published analysis (frequency chadaecha accident), accident type, the incidence of Korea is shown to be the highest side-impact accident frequency different from the US passenger protection It emphasized the importance of safety aspects for the design, SUV vehicles, emphasized that consideration can be relative to the vehicle structure that can sufficiently absorb the impact energy in a collision chadaecha than regular passenger vehicles.

According to Ssangyong vehicles are designed to apply the actual next generation of frames was to maximize the impact energy absorbed through the optimal Crash box zone design, it has secured the Survival surface above the Global target in the event of a side collision itself NCAP Test in collision safety Best Rating 5 reportedly achieved star.

In particular, Lee, Hong - Woo POSCO professional researchers, according to Dr recent global environmental / safety regulations corresponding high strength for by applying advanced high strength tough to get a high ductility at the same time AHSS (Avanced High Strength Steel) This new generation of frames to match the expanding trend of lighter and he said clinch the improved performance.

Moreover, since the initial development of the next generation of newly developed frame that the two companies will cooperate to the best sag resistance (anti-intrusion) 1.5GPa-class ultra high strength steel, POSCO held by the group applying for the first time in the world to have achieved a weight reduction of greater width as innovative structural design, accident when the relative safety of the vehicle to achieve a performance that emphasized improving accompany.

Next-generation frame is extended to the ultra-high strength steel over 590MPa class world-leading 63% to the existing frame (Ssangyong model basis) through design optimization compared to the average tensile strength (tensile strength) 22%, torsional rigidity, such as improving 18% It equipped with best-in-class performance.

Thus Ssangyong Motor and POSCO is expanding its technology exchanges through a strategic partnership between the two companies to strengthen global competitiveness, and the two companies, which had already been through the Tivoli maximize the synergy of technical cooperation.

Among the current model Ssangyong has been applied to the frame and the Korando Sports Rexton W model adopted by the FR method is Chairman W Kaiser, W Rexton, Korando Sports, the Korando Turismo.

RHEE Soue-won Ssangyong Institute of Technology, said, "Ssangyong Motor holds a long period of accumulation of the SUV development expertise has showcase the world-class authentic SUV ranging from Musso, Rexton to start the first domestic independently developed waegeonhyeong SUV the Korando Family" and "next-generation frame through the perfect combination of vehicles, as well as improved marketability plan, "said the passenger and driver's opponent, and showcase the authentic SUV consideration to the safety of pedestrians
