※ This video is part of <Extreme Job - Smaller, More Convenient - Mini Caravan and Trailer> broadcast on June 10, 2019. In the era of 6 million campers! With various forms of camping emerging, the most popular camping is 'car camping', where you stay in your car. However, large camping cars are inconvenient, such as having difficulty parking. For this reason, mini caravans are increasingly in demand these days. Although they are about half the size of existing caravans, they are practical mini caravans with kitchens, bedrooms, and even shower facilities. In addition, they can be moved by compact cars, which is why they are sought after even more~ In addition, folding trailers that are pulled by hanging a hook on the back of a car are also products sought after by many campers. It takes less than 10 minutes to set up and fold a tent attached to a trailer, and since you can enjoy warm camping even in the middle of winter, they are especially loved by family campers. However, since neither mini caravans nor trailers can be manufactured by machines, each and every step is very difficult. In addition, workers who work in narrow spaces are sweating bullets every day because they pay meticulous attention to waterproofing and insulation. We meet those who are busier than anyone else for those who want to enjoy a special vacation in the already-beginning summer. #MiniCaravan A mini caravan factory in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, is very busy with no time to open its eyes as the full-fledged camping season begins. Mini caravans are compact enough to be parked in an apartment basement parking lot, but they can be fully equipped with heating and cooling facilities, beds, sinks, shower booths, and various electronic devices, making them perfect for modern people who want to relax in their busy daily lives. However, many processes are required until a caravan is completed. In particular, the most important process is making the bottom of the body. The bottom of the body, where various devices are mounted, uses galvanized pipes that are strong and moisture-resistant. Corrosion of the pipes can lead to a major accident, so they are made a little stronger, but in order to make the bottom using strong materials, they have to continue welding while fighting against the heat of over 1600 degrees. Also, due to the nature of outdoor camping, we meticulously carry out waterproofing work to make caravans that are strong against snow and rain. We use not only waterproof silicone and waterproof tape, but also heat wires to triple-tie them and wrestle with them for over a day inside a small vehicle to firmly fix them. This mini caravan manufacturing process that lasts for nearly ten days is mostly done by hand. We fight against the heat and always work in cramped spaces, so there is no place that doesn't hurt from the waist to the shoulders, but we go to see people who are proud when they think of guests who make memories while camping in a caravan. #Folding trailers and petite caravans A trailer factory in Paju, Gyeonggi-do. Right now, all the workers here are sweating bullets, working through the night every day to make about 45 folding trailers a month. Folding trailers are easy to carry and are increasingly popular because they come with tents attached. They are also equipped with amenities such as electric blankets and air conditioners, making them even more convenient. The first step in trailer manufacturing is to make the lower frame. Since the trailer is built on top of the frame, if it is twisted once, the trailer itself cannot be built, so it is a very important task. That is why a veteran worker who has been welding for over 30 years is in charge of building the lower frame. Moving the frame, which weighs about 250 kg, is not easy. It takes 6 adult men to barely lift it. After the frame is built, the exterior painting work, interior carpentry work, installation of appliances needed for camping, and wiring work that can be used inside are carried out in stages. Let's meet the workers who are exhausted when they get home due to the early arrival of the heat and the continuous overtime work. Another camping item that is catching the attention of campers is the petit caravan. In order to differentiate it from the all-white caravan, it is not only painted in various colors, but also has a unique curved design, making it especially popular among the younger generation. It is light and pretty, but durable, and the work is done meticulously so that there are no problems with heat retention and waterproofing. We introduce the mini caravan and folding trailer manufacturing site that brings joy to someone. ✔ Program name: Extreme Job - Smaller, more convenient - Mini caravan and trailer ✔ Broadcast date: 2019.06.10 #GolladyeonDocumentary #ExtremeJob #Caravan #Caravans #Camping #CampingCar #Camp #Travel #Car #Modification #Factory
