A variety of LED headlights are currently available for use in vehicles. However, optical distribution expertise was not utilized in altering their design from a halogen bulb structure to an LED structure, which led these lights to fail to meet governing regulations as well as the requirements of the original car makers. On the contrary ADI Optics, has developed b-beam lamps whose spatial distribution meet regulatory requirements regardless of the light fixture they are used in.With its unconventional light source designs, ADI Optics’ patented LED motor vehicle headlight lamps comply with optical and thermal dissipation requirements as well as structural and regulatory ones. Its product structure combines high and low beams into one optical design and adheres to ECE R112 regulations. The low beams remain on and bright when the driver turns on the high beams, while the center of the low beams compensates emittance for brightness to avoid driving hazards due to poor road lighting.
Due to its trend developing globally that UTV sizes must have PCR’s characters. Therefore, Tire’s constructions now need to develop to similar PCR’s construction (Polyester (90°) + Steel Belt). NYLON CORD material is similar to PCR construction nearly 90°in Carcass, referring JATMA regulation, angles bigger than 70°in Carcass could classify in Radial tires. Also, Breaker construction could replace Steel-Belt construction and the efficacies are the same. Unique pattern designed with strengthened construction which lead tires have better driving performance in rugged terrain. Continued pattern layout causing stable condition in driving. The main pattern was designed in shape “/ \” which lead having good driving experience. Pattern design on the bottom of grooves can evacuate mud block efficiently. Designated by KAWASAKI Mule Models and won Red Dot Award in Y2018.
