Unparalleled technique in radar posts!
Union Tech is a shipbuilding equipment and ship component parts company that focuses on radar posts. A radar post is a device that supports the radar installed on a ship and raises, lowers, and moves the radar according to the situation. Marine radar is a device that detects obstacles, other ships, and the coast located at sea and displays their location, distance from the ship, and direction on a flat position indicator. It can be said to be the eyes of the ship. Union Tech has continuously researched and developed the field of radar posts and has produced a variety of products including vertical (telscopic) and horizontal (tilting) methods, and manual, electro-hydraulic (ELE.C HYD), and electric (ELECTRIC) driving methods. The company currently has three patent registrations and one application filed, and is designing and manufacturing products to meet customer needs, resulting in high satisfaction. The company is leading the field by mainly providing radar posts to HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, Hyundai Mipo Dockyard, and Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries.

Complementing the shortcomings of existing antenna posts by developing a marine antenna post (M.R.O.) system
Union Tech is currently researching and developing a marine antenna post (M.R.O.) system. The purpose of this system is to provide a marine antenna post that can effectively adjust its height. Not only does it firmly support the antenna, but it also lowers the height of the antenna to prevent it from colliding with the offshore structure when passing through it. Existing marine antenna posts are driven manually, requiring separate manpower, and it is not easy to adjust the height of the main pillar, so there is a limit to lowering the height of the antenna. Union Tech is developing a product that can stably adjust the height of the antenna post by lowering it using a motor. The plan is to develop a sensor that detects contact on the upper and lower inclined flanges and use the signal to stop the motor operation to prevent excessive use of the motor, and to develop it based on 3D modeling that can monitor the lifespan and maintenance of the product.
