The method for weight reduction is to develop parts using non-ferrous materials such as aluminum or plastic from existing steel materials, and to replace parts requiring high tensile strength, such as areas requiring strength or reinforcement, with high tensile steel. Through the manufacturing process such as hydroforming, roll forming, or tailed blank, the process technology development of manufacturing parts with optimum single shape by improving the shape of welded parts with weak strength or overlapping with several parts is mainly made. have.
