Yan Feng held a 3-day technology experience day at the experience Center in Beijing to showcase nearly 30 innovations such as interior and exterior decoration, seats, electronics and safety.
Unlike in the past, this technology exhibition has brought a number of low-carbon products to implement Yanfeng’s sustainable concept of product design and research and development.
BASSI ®bamboo door panel, BASSI ®bamboo door panel design comes from the organic integration of natural and soothing experience with oriental Zen and care for the earth, the first bold attempt to put bamboo elements into the car interior design.
The door panel uses bamboo skin decoration in the position of the panel, and a variety of bamboo fiber composites are used on the door panel, handrail, map bag and door frame to enhance the quality of the cockpit and transmit the sustainable concept at the same time.
Highlight the new Chinese aesthetic artistic conception.
The position of the panel is to replace the traditional veneer or technology skin with bamboo skin decoration, which can effectively reduce carbon emissions by 30%.
Bamboo skin unique fiber texture, compared with veneer and science and technology wood texture, both minimalism and unique Chinese flavor.
Bamboo has strong hardness and toughness and short growth cycle.
it is abundant in southern China and can grow more than 30 meters in three months.
compared with trees with slow growth cycle, bamboo is very ecologically friendly and can be widely used on the surface of various products in the cockpit.
With a deep understanding of the material characteristics, combined with modern technology, through the bamboo skin thin, repeatedly decolorized, after several times of polishing, splicing and coloring, it not only retains the unique temperament of bamboo, but also gives more modern design possibilities to bamboo, a traditional Chinese material.
In addition, a variety of bamboo fiber composites are also used in the positions of door panels, handrails, map bags and door panel frames.
By adding bamboo fiber to different materials according to 5%, 50%, etc.
, the weight can be reduced by up to 17%, and the carbon emission can be reduced by 30%.
While improving the texture of the product, it can also achieve natural bacteriostasis and reduce odor.
Reco ™low-carbon seat and Reco ™low-carbon seat are another important milestone in Yanfeng’s implementation of the concept of green environmental protection.
Compared with conventional seats, Reco seats use innovative recyclable materials from foaming to steel frames, which can reduce product carbon emissions by up to 40%.
The application of sustainable materials is a key area of Yanfeng’s sustainable development strategy.
Reco seats are made of a variety of materials, including polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyurethane (PU) trim, recycled foam, thermoplastic foam, green steel frame, PET lightweight seat backplane and mixed cushions.
The PET PU trim is made of 100% recycled soft drink bottles, reducing carbon emissions by more than 20%, translucent and soft to the touch.
The Reco seat uses a combination of recycled foam and thermoplastic foam to provide better elasticity and support.
In addition, the foam uses industrial waste water steam in the production and molding process, which greatly reduces energy consumption and emissions.
The seat chassis uses high-strength recycled plastic instead of the traditional metal seat chassis, the seat frame uses 100% scrap as the raw material, and green electricity is used to produce recycled steel frame, which reduces carbon emissions by more than 60%.
The seat backplane adopts recycled PET material, which takes into account both lightweight and styling requirements.
Hybrid cushions use high-strength recyclable composites instead of metals, reduce carbon emissions by 20%, and provide more options for surface treatment technology.
ClickRim modular steering wheel, ClickRim steering wheel creatively adopts the modular concept, and the steering wheel is designed as segmented rims, which can realize the segmented replacement of wheels of different materials.
Whether it is fabric, leather, artificial leather, or any other packaging or injection molding material, these surface materials of the steering wheel can be replaced separately by segments.
The steering wheel is equipped with pre-installed off-hand detection and heating modules, and at the same time, fully automatic coating can be realized, which greatly shortens the manufacturing time.
At the same time, all parts of ClickRim steering wheel are made of recyclable materials.
Thanks to the modular design, each part is detachable and returned to the material cycle.
The metal skeleton and surface materials can be recycled.
The use of foaming materials is reduced during the coating of the steering wheel, thereby reducing the carbon dioxide emissions of each steering wheel by 1 kg.
Due to the complex manual process of traditional steering wheel coating, it takes an average of about 60 minutes to produce a steering wheel.
ClickRim’s innovative design saves approximately 2/3 of production time per steering wheel, significantly improving the efficiency of steering wheel assembly, thereby reducing carbon emissions from the manufacturing process.
EcoSkin ®innovates interior surface technology, and Yan Feng has actively studied the development and application of sustainable surface materials in recent years.
EcoSkin as a representative, its unique environmental performance can effectively improve the odor problem in the car and create a green and friendly cockpit experience.
EcoSkin adopts recyclable thermoplastic elastomer material (TPE), which can be used in the visual surface of most interior decoration in automobile cockpit.
With lifelike texture, delicate skin, and special dirt resistance, it is easy to take care of.
Compared with the traditional cladding parts, it has no R-angle limitation and has a greater degree of freedom in modeling.
It not only provides customizable multi-color combinations, but also realizes the light transmission of materials according to the needs.
at the same time, the process of multi-texture integration can greatly shorten the manufacturing process and reduce carbon emissions in the manufacturing process.
Because there is no solvent in the manufacturing process, the problem of VOC volatilization can be greatly reduced, so it is an extremely environment-friendly product.
The latest generation of ecoSkin ®wireless charging module uses ecoSkin surface technology as a whole to realize different color matching, light transmission and other applications of the same material on a product.
Through integrated injection molding, the overall weight loss is as high as 37.
5%, which is another innovative achievement of ecoSkin to achieve high texture on cockpit products while taking into account low-carbon and environmental protection.
In addition, the technical event also displayed a series of industry-leading intelligent cockpits, including the CYMATICX sound flow cockpit with immersive audio experience, the industry’s first four-way electric independently adjustable backrest Hover ™SPA zero-pressure seat, Wanfeng electric air outlet module that can realize various innovative air outlet modes such as “natural wind”, “super large area sweeping wind” and “feathering”, and ultra-low delay electronic rearview mirror.
This event attracted a large number of customers and media, established in-depth exchanges, and received very positive feedback.
