Microbial Food Waste Disposer

March 21, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2503E01] Cuckoo Electronics has recently introduced a microbial food waste disposer with improved convenience.
The new product is designed with Cuckoo Electronics’ patented smart microbial management algorithm. It provides a convenient way to dispose of food waste, and it can also prevent pollution of soil and water.
First of all, the newly installed automatic rotating stirring rod automatically adjusts to the optimal position when a button is pressed, so that the processed results can be easily collected without colliding with the filter shovel.
Cuckoo Electronics also added a storage tray that can temporarily store food inside the processor and a filter shovel fitted at an optimal angle. The filter shovel that can be stored in the main body has a hole in the shovel itself that acts as a strainer, thus allowing easy removal of residue.
With a generous internal capacity of 12.5 liters, there is no need to frequently empty the decomposed residue, and the front status LED display informs the user of the humidity status of the microorganisms, the cultivation mode, and the operation status such as the door opening in six colors.
The 2nd-generation micro-organic chips that are installed as standard enhance the food decomposition performance with a patented mixing ratio and 1.3 billion abundant microorganisms.
In addition, there is a reduced burden on users when processing food thanks to the cultivation mode for easy microbial cultivation, the 4-stage deodorization system that captures bad odors in stages, and the automatic dust cleaning exhaust filter.
Cuckoo Electronics, which has always led the domestic market through its creative technology, aims to be reborn as a global comprehensive home appliance company that is loved around the world, beyond being No. 1 in Korea.

Korea’s January Exports

February 21, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

Korea’s January Exports Decreased by Over 10%
Semiconductor exports continued to perform well, achieving over US$10 billion for nine consecutive months.

Due to the early Lunar New Year holiday and other factors, Korea’s January exports decreased by more than 10%, and the 15-month consecutive ‘export plus’ streak came to a halt.
The main product, semiconductor exports, continued to perform well, achieving over $10 billion for nine consecutive months, but automobile exports, which were largely affected by the decrease in operating days, fell by nearly 20%.

The January export amount totaled $49.12 billion, down 10.3% from the same month last year.
Korea’s exports turned positive in October 2023 compared to the same month the previous year, and continued to record positive growth for 15 consecutive months until December last year, but this positive trend ceased in January 2025.
Looking at the trends of the 15 main export items, excluding the two items that are the largest export items, namely, semiconductors and computers, exports of 13 items decreased compared to last year. However, based on the daily average exports, the exports of 10 items increased.
Semiconductor exports in January increased by 8.1% from last year to $10.1 billion, recording the second highest January performance after 2022 ($10.8 billion).
Semiconductor exports recorded more than $10 billion for nine consecutive months, continuing the year-on-year export plus trend for 15 consecutive months.
Despite the seasonal decrease in demand for information technology (IT) products and the decline in general memory prices, the semiconductor export boom continued as demand for high value-added memory products such as high bandwidth memory (HBM) and DDR5 remained strong due to the artificial intelligence (AI) craze.
Computer item exports, including solid state drives (SSDs), also increased by 14.8% to $800 million, continuing their 13th consecutive month of growth.
Automobile exports, the second largest export item, decreased by 19.6% to $5 billion. The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) analyzed that the decrease in the number of operating days was greater than that of other industries as automakers including Hyundai Motors and parts manufacturers designated Friday following the Lunar New Year holiday as an additional holiday.
Amid the global electric vehicle (EV) chasm (temporary stagnation in demand), EV exports decreased by 50.3%, while internal combustion engine vehicle exports also decreased by 20.8%, but hybrid vehicle exports increased by 37.1%, continuing their steady growth. Auto parts exports also decreased by 17.2% to $1.57 billion.

Micro Medical Robot System

February 21, 2025 by Leave a Comment
https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2502E16] Established in 2019, IMsystem Co., Ltd. has developed Korea’s first micro medical robot system for precision vascular interventional procedures, and is currently commercializing it.
Currently, IMsystem has completed the prototype production of a remote magnetic micro medical robot system for vascular intervention procedures, and the licensing process is in progress.

Micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention procedures
Unlike existing vascular intervention procedures in which the operator manually manipulates surgical tools, the micro medical robot system for precision vascular intervention (IM_SuperMag_Clinic) uses a magnetic field control system installed at the bottom of the patient’s bed. It is a remote surgery system using a magnetic guide wire/catheter microrobot attached to a microrobot fitted at the end of the existing guide wire/catheter.
Existing procedures have limitations in that it is difficult to insert surgical tools into narrow blood vessels of complex shapes due to manual manipulation by the operator, so the results of the treatment depend on the operator’s skill level. In addition, in the case of complex procedures, not only does exposure to radiation from X-rays, etc., increase due to increased procedure time, but the number of patients who can receive the procedure is also limited due to operator fatigue.

IM_SuperMag_Clinic controls remote surgical tools through magnetic field control, and the operator performs the procedure using a joystick/3D mouse while viewing X-ray images in a separate space rather than inside the operating room.
By reducing fatigue and radiation exposure and improving the convenience of the procedure, the success rate of the procedure, the speed of patient recovery, and the number of daily patients can be increased. It can thus meet the needs of patients, operators, and hospitals, respectively.
Following the completion of prototype development, domestic GMP and licensing are currently in preparation. The acquisition of a domestic license is expected by the end of 2025. For overseas expansion, IMsystem is aiming for CE and FDA approval in 2028. And it is expected that it will be able to quickly advance into overseas markets after being exempted from clinical trials by receiving 510k equivalent recognition from the FDA.
