Hongseong Industrial Company Limited is a leading manufacturer of honeycomb cores and lightweight composite panels. Strain-hardened hexagonal shape of honeycomb cores which has 90% of air are very stable structure as well. Lightweightness is becoming an increasingly important role for rail vehicles because their weight has generally risen over the last 30 years. Rail vehicle components and assemblies that would be good candidates for lightweight using honeycomb composites. Using honeycomb cores with sandwich concept is one of the best ways to reduce weight in trains, trams, and buses, whether it is used for structural members or paneling. Hivecore HHC series also increase stiffness and provide excellent sound/thermal insulation properties thus eliminating the need for subsidiary materials that add weight.
