Even as the global chasm (temporary slowdown in demand) in electric vehicles continues, the global electric vehicle (EV) industry is continuously developing.
The EV industry in Korea is seen as a very important as a future growth engine, and as a key industry of the future, and due to this importance, the government is sparing no efforts in providing various policies and financial support necessary for the transition to zero-emission vehicles.
As of the end of 2024, a total of 700,000 EVs have been distributed in Korea, and the charging infrastructure has also exceeded 400,000. The proportion of zero-emission vehicles among new vehicles released annually is approaching 10%.
The Korean EV market, which has shown rapid growth in recent years, is slowing down due to reduced subsidies, lack of charging infrastructure, and high interest rates.

Latest trends in Korea’s EV industry
Automakers are expanding their investments in the development of next-generation EV platforms, battery technology innovation, and transition to software-centric vehicles (SDVs). In particular, software competitiveness such as AI-based autonomous-driving technology, connectivity, and infotainment systems is being highlighted as important.
Korea’s battery companies are focusing on developing next-generation battery technology, expanding production capacity, and stabilizing the supply chain. In particular, there is fierce competition in the development of next-generation battery technologies such as high-performance batteries, and all-solid-state batteries.

The Korean government and private companies are spurring the expansion of charging infrastructure to expand the supply of EVs. Various efforts are actually being made, such as expanding rapid-charging facilities, improving charging convenience, and introducing charging roaming services.

Kim Pil-soo, chairman of the Korea Electric Vehicle Association (KEVA), commented on the future outlook for the Korean EVs industry: “The Korean EV market is expected to continue growing thanks to active support from the government and the technological advancement of domestic companies. It is expected that innovation in battery technology, expansion of charging infrastructure, and advancement of autonomous driving technology will further accelerate the growth of the industry.

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

[INQ. NO. 2503M07] Founded in 2002, Jaun Co., Ltd. has been striving to take the market lead with its range of automotive filters based on its excellent technology. Currently, it is serving a wide range of sectors, and expanding its business worldwide – from automotive filters, to auto parts and industrial and home filtration.

Air Filters
Clean intake air is required for optimum performance of internal combustion engines. If airborne contaminants such as soot or dust enter the combustion chamber, wear on the cylinder heads may occur, and this can lead to early wearing of the engine. The functioning of electronic components located between the suction and combustion chamber can also be significantly damaged.
Air filters protect the engine by filtering dust, dirt, and other contaminants that can cause serious damage to your engine over time. Passenger car air filters are designed to effectively filter out dust, pollen, dirt, and other contaminants commonly encountered in urban and highway driving conditions.
Jaun’s panel air filter is widely used in today’s automotive vehicles. It provides high performance to your vehicle with its advanced sealing technology, and easy installation. Jaun’s round air filter is versatile and widely used in light commercial vehicles, heavy duty vehicles and construction equipment.

Oil Filters
Up to 75% of the causes of malfunctions in the moving parts of the engine can be attributed to unwanted particles in the oil. It is thus the oil filter’s job to remove these particles from the oil flow to help prevent early component wear and system failure. Clean oil is essential for efficiency and preventing decreases in the engine’s performance, and increases in fuel consumption. Passenger car filters emphasize compact size, standard filtration efficiency, and affordability.
Jaun’s spin-on oil filter is a complete filtering system, and is a type of filter attached to the vehicle by screwing it in. The filtering material is inside the filter box (cartridge). In Spin-on oil filters, both separation performance and pollution-holding capacity are greatly increased by optimizing the filter media structure.
Jaun’s elements oil filter is used and replaced only as filter elements. Environmentally ecologically defined filters for new-generation vehicles are produced with plastic and cellulosic materials without the use of metal parts.
“We have been growing together with clients, and will become a partner that continuously conducts research and strives to help our clients develop. We are constantly striving to develop new filtration solutions and best product quality,” remarked the company’s CEO.

Automobile Air Conditioning System Parts

March 24, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2503M03] KOR.E International Co., Ltd. is a trading company specializing in exporting and manufacturing the parts for automobile air conditioning systems. Its main export destinations are located in Europe including Italy, Germany, Spain and Poland, as well as Asian countries such as Singapore, India, Vietnam, Malaysia and Taiwan.
KOR.E International also exports its products to the Middle East (Saudi Arabia), Africa (Egypt, Algeria), Latin America (Brazil, Columbia, Panama, Chile), etc.
The company’s exports are finished products and various parts such as air conditioning systems and auto spare parts. It is exporting brazing equipment which is a production facility of A/C condensers, evaporators and radiators out of the air conditioning parts.

Clients include Doowon Corporation, KB Auto-Tech, Daihan Calsonic Co., Ltd. and MACS (Mobile Air Conditioning Society) members in the USA as dealer contractors and export license agreement businesses for purchased products. Its main exports are condensers, compressors, evaporators, hoses & pipes, and filters for automobile air conditioners, radiators for automobile engines, and auto spare parts.
The A/C condenser is located in the very front of the automobile engine room and serves to cool the high-temperature, high-pressure air-conditioner refrigerant delivered from the compressor and to convert it into the liquid-state refrigerant.
The compressor is powered by the engine of the automobile and repeats the process of sucking, compressing and circulating the refrigerant. The compressor compresses the refrigerant in the low-pressure gas state, changes it into the high-temperature, high-pressure gas state, sends it to the condenser, sucks the refrigerant in the evaporator and evaporates it to perform a cooling function.
The evaporator changes the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant in the wet saturated steam state into gas (superheated steam) by heat exchange with indoor and outdoor air of the automobile. The air that has lost its heat is changed into a low-temperature, low-humidity condition, and this air is discharged to the inside of the vehicle by a blower to keep the indoor environment of the car comfortable.
The hose and pipe act as a passageway conveying the refrigerant of the air conditioning system. As the radiator absorbs the heat generated by the car engine, the temperature of the warmed coolant gets lowered while it passes through the radiator. The cooled coolant then flows back into the engine and cools the engine. And this process is repeated. The radiator is a heat exchanger that allows the car engine to maintain a reasonable temperature by cooling the warmed coolant.
