Nowadays, most automotives companies are making use of laser welding in car body assembly shop. But even though laser welding is better than resistance spot welding in many points, its application has been limited to special technology for manufacturing. The paper introduces in the field of remote welding system (RWS) to improve the process efficiency of laser welding. Positioning time of RWS between welding stitches is dramatically reduced to zero. It is a kind of solutions to generalize laser welding in mass production. This RWS consists of fiber laser, industrial robot and 3-axis scanner.

This paper try to find root-cause of failure in a connector used in transmitting signals for throttle body control in automotives by analyzing possible failure causes and performing experiments to simulate the cable failure in field. The connector comprises fins, wires, and case moldings. The failure is due to degradation of initial clamping force required fixing fins and wires in the connector. Expansion and compression of the case molding material surrounding fins would cause the degradation. Investigations of strict initial claming force and control of thermal expansion property of the molding are required to prevent the failure.

Aluminium alloy castings, which can be not only manufactured in larger geometrically complex shapes, but also show good mechanical properties in addition to light weight, have kept their potential use as structures in the field of automotives, industrial machines and aircrafts. The variations of eutectic Si size a great effect on the elongation, impact value, fracture toughness and fatigue crack propagation rate without changes in the tensile strength or yield strength. The cooling curves with the solidification rate between $1.4^{\circ}C\;/min$ and $19.1^{\circ}C\;/min$ were obtained. With the increase of solidification rate, DAS, eutectic Si size and grain size were all decreased, which enhanced the mechanical properties. The tensile strength and yield strength were the most greatly influenced by DAS, and the elongation and impact value by eutectic Si size.

The automotive industry has recently shown a growing interest in tube hydroforming. Even though many structural parts in automotives have been produced from the cylindrical tubes, many failures - wrinkling, buckling, folding back, bursting and so on - are frequently experienced during the tube hydroforming process under improper forming conditions. In this paper, analytical studies are performed to determine the forming limits for the tube hydroforming process and demonstrate how the loading path influences the forming limit. The theoretical results for the forming limits of the wrinkling and bursting are then compared with the experimental results for an aluminum tube.

Recently, electronic engine control system is used in many automotives for high efficiency and low pollution. In order to perform these requirements, fuel injection control, spark timing control, knock control, exhaust gas recirculation control and idle speed control should be implemented. In this paper, idle speed control system using microcontroller is developed, which is compact in hardware, but powerful in software performing efficient control and various compensations for engine condition and environments. If idle speed is low engine operation is not smooth, reversely if high, fuel consumption is increased. Therefore idle speed must be maintained as low as possible within the scope that ensures smooth operation of engine. Also, an engine signal simulator, which generates various signals from engine, is realized for test facility.

Powder injection molding(PIM) is widely used for many parts in the field of automotives, electronics and medical industries, due to the capability of net shaping for complex 3-D geometry. Powder injection mold design for the dental scaler tip, a component of medical appliance, was presented. In comparison with conventional machining process, powder injection molding has many advantages, specially in price and dimensional stability, for molding dental scaler tip which has complex geometry. Both product design and mold design for dental scaler tip were presented. A PIM feedstock was made of stainless series(17-4PH, 316L, 440C) powder and a wax based binder. The 'rapid mold' concept was applied to manufacture the various forms and materials of dental scaler tip including vibration characteristics.

In this study, experiments and simulations were conducted for a 1,200-V-class trench Si insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) with a small cell pitch below 2.5 ㎛. Presently, as a power device, the 1,200-V-class trench Si IGBT is used for automotives including electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and industrial motors. We obtained a breakdown voltage of 1,440 V, threshold of 6 V, and state voltage drop of 1.75 V. This device is superior to conventional IGBTs featuring a planar gate. To derive its electrical characteristics, we extracted design and process parameters. The cell pitch was 0.95 ㎛ and total wafer thickness was 140 ㎛ with a resistivity of 60 Ω·cm. We will apply these results to achieve fine-pitch gate power devices suitable for electrical automotive industries.

Wet-friction materials have been widely used for clutches and brakes of automotives over past several decades. In order to enhance its performance, its friction behaviour should be fully understood. It is, however, still not at hand and therefore an attempt was made to have some more understanding of friction behaviour of wet-friction materials. Measurements of coefficient of friction were made with the variation of lubricants, lub. temperature, sliding velocity, and contact pressure. In addition, the effects of both the viscosity of lubricants and the porosity of materials on the coefficient of friction were also investigated. It can be concluded that the coefficient of friction is decreased as the concentrations of the resin and inorganic fillers are increased, and it tends to decrease with the increase in the lubricant temperature and sliding velocity.

국내 자동차메이커는 디자인고급화를 위하여 08년 이후 다양한 표면처리를 적용하고 있다. 특히 외장부품은 다크크롬, 짙은크롬, 반광등은 코드화 작업을 마쳤다. 2010년이후에는 겨울철 제설염으로 인한 6가크롬도금의 취약성을 발견하고 2011년 제설염 테스트 규격개정을 작업을 완료하였으며, 2015년이후 출시 차량은 6가크롬은 삭제하였으며, 3가크롬도금으로 큰 전환이 일어났다. 또한 라디에이타그릴은 대형화흐름으로 기존의 $50dm^2$이하의 디자인이 $100dm^2$이상 디자인으로 변경하는 추세이다. 이러한 변화에 도금공장은 기존라인으로 생산이 어려워 신규LINE 증설로 대응하고 있으나, 불량의 증가로 채산성이 악화되고 있다.
