Recent developments (FY2007)

The Company manufactured electronic control units (ECUs) and optical sensors, which are core technologies of electric power steering systems. No other Korean manufacturer has ever made these components on its own. The ECUs and sensors are designed to be embedded inside the steering shafts in order to adjust the steering angle and control the motor according to the car's speed. By making these products in-house, the Company will be able to improve cost efficiency, minimize the risk of exchange-rate fluctuations, and establish a stable supply structure to offer core vehicle products. Switching from imports to in-house production is expected to bring in additional sales of 60 billion won to the company. With its capacity to manufacture 800,000 electric power steering systems per year at its plant in Poseung, Gyeonggi-do, the Company currently supplies these products to the Hyundai new Avante XD and i30, and the Kia Cee'd. It will also provide them to the successor models of the Hyundai Verna and the Kia Seraro and aims to expand the application of these products in other vehicles.

-Czech Republic
The Company held a ground-breaking ceremony at its new plant site in Nosovice, Czech Republic. The Company, which already manufactures auto parts in Slovakia, will invest 56.8 billion won in its second plant in Europe, which will produce modules and be built on 100,000 square meters of land. The new plant will hire around 800 local employees and manufacture complete chassis modules, cockpit modules, and front-end modules for use in Hyundai's strategic models marketed in Europe. It plans to manufacture 300,000 units per year in the Czech Republic by using the same "tunnel conveyor systems" used at Ohio Module Manufacturing Company (OMMC) operated by the Company. In a tunnel conveyor system, module production lines and car assembly lines are connected by tunnel conveyors, which deliver finished module products to the car assembly lines. The Company expects this system to enhance its productivity and cost efficiency and reduce shipping costs by 7 billion won. (From a press release on Aug. 31, 2007)
