Introduction of Control Units / Computer Devices (w. HS Code)
1) ECU (ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT)
Material : Steel, etc.
HS CODE : No. 9032.89
Features and Applications
: This device serves to control all parts of the vehicle, such as a driving system, a braking system, and a steering system of the vehicle. That is, it is an electronic control device that controls the state of an engine, an automatic transmission, and an ABS of a vehicle with a computer.
2) TCU (TRANSMISSION CONTROL UNIT)
Material : Steel, etc.
HS CODE : No. 9032.89
Features and Applications
: A transmission control unit (TCU) is a type of automotive ECU that is used to control electronic automatic transmissions. Similar systems are used in conjunction with various semi-automatic transmissions, purely for clutch automation and actuation. A TCU in a modern automatic transmission generally uses sensors from the vehicle, as well as data provided by the engine control unit (ECU), to calculate how and when to change gears in the vehicle for optimum performance, fuel economy and shift quality.
3) ABS (ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM)
Material : Steel, etc.
HS CODE : No. 9032.89
Features and Applications
: ABS system, also known as an anti-skid (ANTI-SKID) system, is mainly used for pressure control of hydraulic brakes and air-brakes. It is a system that controls the pressure applied to the brake in order to shorten the braking distance, ensure steering capability, and travel stability, and to exert optimal braking capability. It helps during bad road conditions or sudden braking.
