HiPhi

🟢Announcing that it will convert diesel mining trucks to electric in 2021 together with #ABB, #Hitachi shared that the first vehicle has been produced.
⛏️The giant truck started to be used in a copper-gold mine in Zambia. It climbs with an electrical connection that feeds the battery, similar to a trolleybus, while going to pick up load. When turning downhill while loaded, it recharges its battery thanks to regenerative braking.
🔋In this way, ABB and Hitachi completed the transformation with a smaller one instead of a megawatt-hour battery. They made this possible thanks to the regenerative braking ability of the huge electric motors seen in the prototype photo.
🔌Mining truck&#8217;s previously had a giant internal combustion engine with 16 cylinders and 2,534 horsepower. It will relatively reduce the impact of mining on the environment by ending diesel consumption and zeroing out emissions after the conversion to electric.

Hyundai

Hyundai is taking important steps to increase electric vehicle production and reduce costs! According to the South Korean press, the automobile giant is developing a &#8220;unibody chassis&#8221; system similar to Tesla.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-39128 size-full" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Hyundai-Kona-2024-1.jpg" alt="" width="981" height="492" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Hyundai-Kona-2024-1.jpg 981w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Hyundai-Kona-2024-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Hyundai-Kona-2024-1-768x385.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 981px) 100vw, 981px" />
&nbsp;
South Korean Hyundai is working on modeling a new electric vehicle production method inspired by Tesla&#8217;s &#8216;Giga Casting&#8216;. The new method aims to significantly reduce the cost and increase the production speed significantly.
Since it was introduced at the Fremont factory in 2020, the method has also begun to be implemented in Tesla&#8217;s facilities in China and Germany. Both the front and rear chassis of Model Y and the new Model 3 are produced in one piece. In this way, it is estimated that Tesla spends approximately 10 hours to produce a vehicle from scratch, while Volkswagen needs almost three times more time.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-39132 size-full" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Tesla-Gigafactory-1-1.jpg" alt="" width="978" height="492" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Tesla-Gigafactory-1-1.jpg 978w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Tesla-Gigafactory-1-1-300x151.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Tesla-Gigafactory-1-1-768x386.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 978px) 100vw, 978px" />
Hyundai has decided to develop its own casting, processing and assembly facility with production planning for 2026. The company also applied for the &#8220;hypercasting&#8221; trademark to the US Patent and Trademark Office on August 21, 2023. Of course, Hyundai is not the only company that wants to implement this production technique. Many brands, including automobile manufacturers such as Volkswagen and Volvo, are involved in similar initiatives.

Hyundai To Develop A “Unibody Chassis” Like Tesla

Tesla

Tesla is preparing to produce the entire electric vehicle chassis in one piece.
The chassis produced in one go instead of 400 different chassis parts will both increase production speed and reduce costs.
Tesla Model Y&#8217;s chassis, which currently consists of a structural battery in the front, rear, and middle, will turn into a single piece. The true unibody chassis is expected to be used first in the cheap Tesla worth $ 25 thousand.
<img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-39109 size-large" src="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1694701440494-1536x928-1-1024x619.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="453" srcset="https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1694701440494-1536x928-1-1024x619.jpg 1024w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1694701440494-1536x928-1-300x181.jpg 300w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1694701440494-1536x928-1-768x464.jpg 768w, https://api.dolubatarya.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1694701440494-1536x928-1.jpg 1536w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" />
The molds to be used in the production of the monolithic chassis can be produced with 3D printers with industrial sand. Design approval time will decrease from 6-12 months to 2-3 months.
While the cost of a mold during the design changes of the vehicle from prototype to mass production can reach several million dollars, this cost will be reduced by almost 97% with the system that Tesla will adopt.
Yekpare şasiyi daha ucuz kalıplarda ve yüksek verimlilikle üretmek için özel alüminyum alaşımlar geliştiriliyor.

The solid chassis, which will gradually halve the production cost and reduce the factory investment volume, will be used for the first time in the electric Lexus. It will go on sale in 2026. It is stated that this vehicle will come with a new generation battery that will push the limits with 965 kilometers.
Toyota, which will first get rid of 85 different parts by producing the rear chassis in one piece, will then transform the front chassis and combine a total of 175 chassis parts into two giant parts. The company will realize this transformation with systems similar to the 6,000-ton giant aluminum casting machines that Tesla bought from Italian iDRA.
