https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2312M10] YOOHAN SHB is a Korean hydraulic breaker manufacturer with a 30-year tradition in the heavy attachment industry, starting as the Mitsubishi distributor in 1993.
As sales increased, the company started its own business under the name YOOHAN, and launched its own brand. YOOHAN became a global enterprise based on its entry into the Chinese market since 2003 by establishing its own foreign corporation in Shanghai, named SUNHAN Machinery.

As the company’s reputation grew with its Korean high-quality products, it recorded sales of up to 1,000 units of breakers yearly from 2006 to 2010, which led to a total export amount surpassing US$7 million. YOOHAN also participated in the Bauma China exhibition as an exhibitor in 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2016, respectively, to catch up with the latest trends and to find out what potential customers want.

Varied model line-up and its own design & technology
YOOHAN treats all types of hydraulic breakers from 3-ton to 65-ton, and its models are developed through its own technology and patents. Unnecessary costs are reduced by selecting the most appropriate breaker for the customers’ equipment, as the company produces various types of breakers. YOOHAN is also specialist in customization (OEM). The most sought-after models are YHB81 (18-25ton) and YHB50 (11~16ton).

Excellent crushing strength & beyond comparison in terms of solidness
The reasons why numerous customers stick to YOOHAN breakers is because its products are manufactured with materials from SEAH BESTEEL which is considered as the top maker of special steel in Korea.

YOOHAN signed a distributorship for SEAH BESTEEL since 2011 and this is one of the reasons why they can still offer comparatively reasonable prices, and the best quality. Also, their breakers have a high reputation for powerful crushing strength with their optimum design mechanism and highly efficient flow control system.
The CEO of the company remarked “I will ensure that YOOHAN SHB always keeps pursuing novelty and never ceases to challenge innovation. We will always listen to the various voices and opinions from the field until our clients feel satisfied.”

Five Hiking Courses in Seoul for All Skill Levels

November 28, 2023 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

Seoul isn’t just home to millions of people, it’s also home to many mountains both large and small. Everywhere you look, the skyline of Seoul’s tall buildings is backed by undulating mountain ridges. From the peaks of these mountains, you can see the whole of Seoul unfold before you.
The mountains around Seoul have an average height of 410 meters, making them quite low and easy for hikers of all skill levels. The mountains are also the perfect place to enjoy Korea’s changing seasons. Especially in summer, you can enjoy the cool breeze that blows through the shaded valleys. Another attraction of the mountains is how easily accessible they are via Seoul’s extensive public transit system, with most hiking paths starting just a short walk from subway station exits. To enjoy a bird’s-eye-view of Seoul while in peaceful nature, select one of the courses below, available in various difficulty levels.

Hanyangdoseong, Seoul City Wall (Naksan Section 2.1 km) | Walk through History
1396 to protect Hanseong, the then-capital city of Joseon. Currently, the old city wall in located in the middle of Seoul, and is divided into six sections. Among these, the Naksan Section is the easiest course, and offers stunning nightscape views, making it a popular choice. You can receive a commemorative badge if you walk all six sections of Hanyangdoseong and collect stamps at the designated spots.

Inwangsan Mountain (338.2 m) | Panoramic view of Seoul
Standing atop Inwangsan Mountain is like standing in the middle of Seoul due to its location in Jongno-gu, near the center of the city. The hiking trail even starts from the middle of the city, near Gyeongbokgung Station! The path is well maintained, and is short enough that even the most inexperienced hiker can reach the summit in no time. If you’re visiting with young children or someone who has walking difficulties, the Inwangsan Jarak Trail (2.5 km / 1 hr) that circles the mountain is a great choice.

Cheonggyesan Mountain (618 m) | Stairway to Heaven
Cheonggyesan Mountain is jokingly called “cheongaesan,” a Korean play on words in reference to the thousand (“cheon gae”) stairs you must climb to reach the summit. While there aren’t actually one thousand stairs, the mountain does seem to have an endless supply of them.
Kkalddakgogae Pass in particular was named for the sharp sound of breathing you’ll produce after climbing up the steep staircase here. But if you can make it past that section, the summit will be just before you. During the summer months when it rains often, the sound of water babbling in the valley brook will keep you company.

Gwanaksan Mountain (632 m) | Path of many ups and downs
Gwanaksan Mountain isn’t that large in the grand scale of mountains, but it is quite a strenuous hike, requiring adequate warm-up before starting out. You’ll also want to be equipped with proper hiking boots. The trail begins with a rather flat walk, but quickly leads to repeated ups and downs as you follow the ridge line of this rocky mountain. Preparing gloves or hiking sticks can make your walk easier. If you enjoy an active lifestyle, you may even come to enjoy the roller-coaster-like walk.

Dobongsan Mountain (740 m) | Beautiful stone peaks
Dobongsan Mountain is located on Seoul’s northern side, bordering Uijeongbu and Yangju in Gyeonggi-do. The mountain stands out for its many rocky peaks, ranging from softly rounded to sharp points. While the mountain is smaller than Bukhansan Mountain, the rocky terrain makes it a much more difficult hike. Despite this, hikers often say the hardships at reaching the summit are all but forgotten when they take in the view from the majestic rocky peaks.

Eco-friendly Car Exports Growing Rapidly

November 28, 2023 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

Cumulative eco-friendly vehicle exports from January to September this year amounted to US$17.9 billion, exceeding the value of last year’s total eco-friendly vehicle exports ($16.1 billion).
Total automobile exports through the third quarter of this year reached an all-time high of $52.1 billion.
According to the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE), exports of eco-friendly cars in September amounted to 53,801 units, an increase of 10.6% compared to September last year. The cumulative number from the first to the third quarter was 548,263 units, an increase of 37.8% compared to the same period last year.
In terms of export amount, eco-friendly car exports last September amounted to $1.742 billion, a 23.3% increase from September last year, and cumulatively for the first to third quarters, they amounted to $17.909 billion, an increase of 57.7% compared to the same period last year.

In addition, MOTIE analyzed that exports of eco-friendly cars to the U.S. market increased as the government actively responded to the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and the Korean automobile industry actively utilized it.
Total automobile production last September was calculated to be 301,799 units. This is a 1.9% decrease from the same period last year, but the record of ‘producing more than 300,000 units per month’ has not been broken for 13 consecutive months since September last year.
If this trend continues, MOTIE predicts that annual production will likely exceed 4 million units in the five years from 2018.
Domestic market sales in September decreased by 4.7% to 133,709 units. Among these, sales of eco-friendly cars increased by 2.3% to 42,621 units. Electric vehicle sales decreased by 34.3% to 13,499 units, but hybrid vehicle sales increased by 45.7% to 27,930 units.
A spokesperson for MOTIE commented, “In order to maintain the automobile export momentum, we will resolve export difficulties through continuous communication with the automobile industry.”

Charging Platform for EVs

November 27, 2023 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2311M60] Pluglink Inc. is a Charge Point Operator (CPO) focused on deploying charging infrastructures particularly within mass residential complexes (mainly apartments). It is also the only CPO to join the K-RE100 initiative committed to delivering renewable energy to EV owners. The company aims to provide convenient charging experiences where EV users can enjoy easy, safe, and reliable charge points.

In response to the global transition to electric vehicles (EVs), South Korea is setting up EV charging points mainly driven by government subsidies. Based on the national commitment to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles, Pluglink is actively scaling up to set up charging infrastructure through external financing.

Many CPOs based in South Korea require online registration and card ordering procedures that have a negative impact on the EV user experiences. Pluglink on the other hand, eliminates all unnecessary steps and allows the required procedures to be handled through the mobile application. Pluglink users benefit from one minute to register, 30 seconds to connect the EV with the charging point via QR code reading, and automatic payment once charging is completed. The mobile application focuses on making owning an EV even easier through pioneering solutions aimed to provide a seamless charging experience.
Pluglink’s charging infrastructures are suitable for apartment complexes as they are equipped with a ‘dynamic load balancing’ function which allows for efficient distribution of limited power supply across multiple vehicles. This minimizes the burden on the current electricity grid of the building and thereby enables the deployment of more charging stations within each building.
Pluglink plans to accelerate the transition to carbon-free mobility. Emissions from the transportation sector accounted for approximately 13.5% of South Korea’s total carbon emissions in 2018. Therefore for EVs to be truly aligned with green initiatives within the transportation sector, Pluglink enables EV users to not only charge their vehicles with renewable energy, but also integrate sustainable mobility into their existing lifestyles.
