One of the group’s major strengths is its high-tensile steel plate processing technology.
The group makes products from high-tensile steel, which is particularly strong and extremely difficult to mold, with its advanced technological capabilities.
To support the reduction of CO₂ emissions while ensuring automobile safety, we will pursue further weight reductions and greater strength for each part and provide technologies for the global environment and a new automotive society.
- Expansion of application of cold-formed 1,470 MPa material to press parts
- Development and manufacture of battery cases for electric vehicles
We are advancing the development of technology for cold-formed 1,470 MPa press parts, which have the same strength as the hot stamp method with little CO₂ generated compared to the hot stamp method, which generates a large amount of CO₂.
With battery cases for electric vehicles, it is important to ensure characteristics such as water-tightness, battery storage capacity and strength, and we are developing technologies that lead to high quality and low cost by making full use of our production technology know-how and structural analysis.
