Abstract

The development of automotive rear chassis part using tube forming process has advantage of increase in part durability and decrease in its weight. We developed tubular type rear CTBA(Coupled Torsion Beam Axle) part with 60K high strength steel developed by POSCO in this project. The result was demonstrated that tubular type CTBA shows excellent durability performance and $10\%$ weight reduction compared with V-beam type CTBA in our work. Furthermore, we will adapt this technology to mass production and apply to the other chassis parts.
