Start of production of new BMW 7 Series at Plant Dingolfing

10.06.2015

https://mediapool.bmwgroup.com/cache/P9/201506/P90186996/P90186996-start-of-production-of-new-bmw-7-series-at-plant-dingolfing-harald-krueger-r--chairman-of-the-board--599px.jpg

Start of production of new BMW 7 Series at Plant Dingolfing - Harald Krüger (r.), Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW ...

Clear commitment to Germany as high-tech production location
Investment of over half a billion euros in efficient new production technologies at BMW Group’s largest German manufacturing site
Integration of carbon-fibre and electrification expertise into existing production infrastructure
Technology transfer from BMW i to core BMW brand

Munich/Dingolfing. Like its predecessor, the new BMW 7 Series will also be built in Dingolfing: Series production of the sixth generation of the BMW 7 Series will get underway on 1 July. Between 2008 and the present day, 370,000 models of the previous generation were built in Dingolfing and shipped to customers in more than 100 countries worldwide. Since the launch of the first BMW 7 Series in 1977, the Dingolfing plant has produced a total of more than 1.6 million BMW 7 Series. Its main markets today are China, the US, Germany, the Middle East, Russia, Korea, the UK and Japan. Taking into account all the diverse engine, colour and customer-specific options, countless vehicle variants (options to 1070) can be produced. Barely any two BMW 7 Series leaving the Dingolfing assembly line are the same.
At the employee event to mark the start of production in Dingolfing Harald Krüger, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, said: “This car demonstrates the full innovation capabilities of our developers and designers, as well as the extensive experience and expertise gained from producing our flagship model here in Dingolfing. We have invested more than half a billion euros in the plant in the past three years alone for this purpose. The Plant has been developed and adapted so that it is fully prepared for the future with new technologies, such as carbon fibre and electrification. This represents a clear commitment on the part of the BMW Group to both Dingolfing as a high-tech production location, and to Germany.”
Intelligent lightweight design and technology transfer from BMW i
The newest version of this luxury sedan paves the way for a wide range of innovations in areas including driving dynamics, comfort, intelligent connectivity and control, all complemented by a holistic lightweight concept: Different materials are selectively combined to assure optimum vehicle performance and light weight. For example, ultra-lightweight, high-tech carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) is used in the passenger compartment. Carbon fibre is around 30 per cent lighter than aluminium and about 50 per cent lighter than steel. The unique body structure, referred to as the “carbon core”, is based on technology transferred from the BMW i models, which helps optimise vehicle weight, as well as material strength and rigidity. This results in significantly lower fuel consumption and emissions, combined with improved driving performance, dynamics and comfort. The new BMW 7 Series models weigh up to 130 kilograms less than the previous generation.
Pioneer in large-scale production of carbon fibre
The new BMW 7 Series is the first vehicle in the BMW Group’s core model portfolio to use industrially-manufactured carbon fibre in combination with maximum-strength steel and aluminium in the body structure rather than as a visible shell material. Carbon fibre is used for the roof bows, to reinforce the roof frame, the B and C pillars, the sills, the centre tunnel and for the rear shelf. The company benefits from the knowhow gained from development and production of its BMW i models. For the first time, the BMW Group is using two enhanced, innovative and highly-efficient processes in production of the BMW 7 Series in Dingolfing: wet pressing and hybrid pressing.
In wet pressing, carbon-fibre fabrics or netting, impregnated with resin, are pressed in a three-dimensional moulding die while wet and then hardened. The dry pre-shaping previously used in the Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM) process is no longer required. In hybrid pressing, carbon-fibre fabrics impregnated with resin, also still wet, are placed in a moulding die with sheet steel, then pressed and hardened. This bonds the steel and carbon materials to form a hybrid component. Hybrid components are light, but offer maximum rigidity and outstanding crash performance. Both processes enable highly economical large-scale production of up to several thousand carbon components per day, with compact systems engineering and short cycle times.
Josef Kerscher, head of Plant Dingolfing: “Our preparations for the start of production of the new BMW 7 Series have been intensive. We have been building the BMW brand flagship and technology platform for almost 40 years in Dingolfing. It is an honour and a privilege to continue to provide top quality for our customers around the world. The key to this success lies in our decades of expertise in building premium automobiles and our highly competent and dedicated employees. The structures and new manufacturing technologies for lightweight construction and electrification we established for the BMW 7 Series ramp-up will also benefit other models built at Dingolfing.”

The new BMW 7 Series 750Li xDrive (06/2015).

With the new BMW 7 Series, BMW has redefined what an exclusive, luxurious driving experience looks like in contemporary, pioneering form. Groundbreaking technologies in the areas of lightweight design, powertrains, chassis, operating systems, intelligent connectivity and interior ambience underline its mission to bring together unbeatable driving pleasure and long-distance comfort in a luxury sedan. The handing over of the baton from one generation to the next at the top end of BMW’s model line-up sees the brand presenting a raft of innovations unmatched by any of its rivals.
Key factors in enhancing dynamics, efficiency, comfort and safety while on the move are the use of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) in the body structure, engines from the BMW Group’s new generation of power units, the plug-in hybrid system in the new BMW 740e, the Executive Drive Pro active chassis system, the Driving Experience Control switch with ADAPTIVE mode and BMW Laserlight. Maximising well-being in the rear compartment, meanwhile, are the Executive Lounge feature with massage function and Vitality Programme, the Sky Lounge Panorama glass roof, the Welcome Light Carpet, the Ambient highlight and a smartphone holder with inductive charging station. Standout innovations in operating system and driver assistance technology include the extension of the iDrive system to include a touch display and BMW gesture control, as well as Touch Command, the new BMW Head-Up Display, crossing traffic warning, the steering and lane control assistant, active side collision protection, Surround View with 3D View and the Remote Control Parking system.
Design: stylish presence, assured dynamics, exclusive elegance.
The design of the new BMW 7 Series provides an authentic showcase for the car’s character. Harmonious proportions, a strongly controlled surface design and precise lines point to the stylistic confidence, assured dynamics and exclusive elegance at work here. The optimised balance of driving pleasure and long-distance comfort finds clear expression in the unmistakable aura of the luxury sedan, which is available in both standard and long wheelbase variants.
Characteristic features of the interior include generous levels of space accentuated by its horizontal surfaces and lines, the driver-focused cockpit design, the fusion of exquisite materials and precision craftsmanship and the sophisticated functionality of the control and display elements. The M Sport package, the design Pure Excellence package and a BMW Individual Design Composition will be available for the new BMW 7 Series from launch. They underline the car’s dynamic ability, exclusive elegance and luxurious ambience to great effect, and satisfy the diverse expectations of customers around the world.
“At BMW we believe the future can be predicted most effectively if we’re helping to shape it,” explains Adrian van Hooydonk, Senior Vice President BMW Group Design. “The primary objective in the development of the new car was to create a vision of modern luxury and to exceed our customers’ expectations. In BMW’s eyes, modern luxury is rooted in the most advanced technologies and extremely fine attention to detail. This generation of the BMW 7 Series is the most luxurious, most comfortable and – all round – the best car we have ever built in this class.”
BMW EfficientLightweight: Carbon Core reduces weight by as much as 130 kilograms.
BMW EfficientLightweight helps to reduce the weight of the new BMW 7 Series models by up to 130 kilograms compared to their previous-generation counterparts. At the centre of it all is the body structure with Carbon Core, a product of the transfer of technology from the development of BMW i cars. The new BMW 7 Series is the first car in its segment in which industrially manufactured CFRP combines with steel and aluminium. The intelligent body concept uses this mixed-materials approach to increase the strength and rigidity of the passenger cell while at the same time significantly reducing vehicle weight.
New-generation straight-six engines.
The new BMW 7 Series is available with an extensively updated V8 engine and six-cylinder in-line variants from the BMW Group’s latest generation of power units. All the engines link up as standard with the likewise further developed eight-speed Steptronic transmission. The BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system, which can be specified as an option, also operates more effectively than ever.
Plug-in hybrid BMW 740e features BMW eDrive technology.
The addition to the model range of the BMW 740e sees the arrival in the luxury sedan segment of BMW eDrive technology which was first introduced in BMW i cars. The plug-in hybrid model, which will be launched in long-wheelbase BMW 740Le form and bear the BMW 740Le xDrive badge when specified with intelligent all-wheel drive, is powered by a four-cylinder petrol engine and an electric motor, which together generate total system output of 240 kW/326 hp. The BMW 740e records combined fuel consumption of 2.1 litres per 100 kilometres (134.5 mpg imp) as calculated in the EU test cycle for hybrid vehicles and a combined electric power consumption of 12.5 kWh per 100 kilometres. CO2 emissions stand at 49 grams per kilometre (provisional). The electric drive system, supplied with energy by a high-voltage lithium-ion battery, provides a noticeable boost for the combustion engines when dynamic acceleration is required. Moreover, the BMW eDrive technology enables all-electric and therefore locally emission-free driving at speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) and with a range of up to 40 kilometres (25 miles).
Dynamics and ride comfort made to measure – and to the highest standard.
Sophisticated, precision-honed chassis technology and additional chassis control systems – fitted as standard or available as an option – enhance both the dynamics of the new BMW 7 Series and its ride quality. At the same time, the balance between these two facets of driving pleasure reaches a level without parallel in the luxury sedan segment. Standard specification includes 2-axle air suspension with automatic self-levelling and Dynamic Damper Control.
Further enhancing comfort, dynamics, poise and assurance are the latest update of the Integral Active Steering system, which can now be specified in conjunction with BMW xDrive, and the Executive Drive Pro system with active roll stabilisation and data-based predictive function, which is available for the first time. Electromechanical anti-roll bars reduce body roll under dynamic cornering and the active chassis control system adapts the dampers’ responses to ruts and bumps in the road.
The latest wave of innovations offer drivers greater freedom when selecting the perfect set-up for their car; they can opt for even sportier handling or further improved ride comfort, or use the high-efficiency ECO PRO mode. ADAPTIVE mode can now also be activated via the newly designed Driving Experience Control switch. In this setting, the car set-up adapts to driving style and route characteristics.
Intuitive operation with touch display and BMW gesture control.
In the new BMW 7 Series the iDrive operating system’s monitor comes in touch display form for the first time. This means customers will also be able to operate the system in the same way as modern electronic devices. In addition to using the Controller to control the system in familiar style, its functions can also be selected and activated by touching the screen’s surface.
Another new addition to the iDrive system’s functionality is BMW gesture control, which is being introduced for the first time. Hand movements detected by a 3D sensor control infotainment functions in an extremely intuitive and user-friendly fashion. The gestures can be used for a number of functions, including controlling the volume in audio applications and accepting or rejecting incoming telephone calls. There is also the option of pairing a specific gesture with an individual choice of function. Also joining the fray is a new smartphone holder integrated into the centre console, which allows wireless, inductive charging for mobile phones for the first time in a car.
Luxury ambience with all the trimmings: Executive Lounge, Touch Command.
The BMW 750Li xDrive, BMW 740Li, BMW 730Ld and BMW 730Ld xDrive models specified with the optional Executive Lounge, which redefines personal well-being in a luxury car, offer levels of comfort a class apart. This equipment package includes Automatic air conditioning with 4-zone control, Electrically adjustable comfort seats with massage function in the rear and Active seat ventilation for all seats, plus the optional Executive Lounge Seating, Executive Lounge rear console and Rear-seat entertainment Experience with BMW Touch Command. The massage function now also includes the Vitality Programme, which allows rear passengers to engage in active physical exercise for recuperation purposes. The Executive Lounge Seating option increases comfort in the rear seat behind the front passenger seat, which can slide forward by an additional 90 millimetres and has an electrically extendable footrest integrated into its backrest. The rear passenger can unwind into an extremely relaxing position thanks to a backrest which can recline impressively close to the horizontal position.
The Executive Lounge rear console houses a fold-out table, additional cupholders and the Touch Command system. This removable 7-inch tablet computer allows the user to control the infotainment and comfort functions available in the rear of the new BMW 7 Series and can also be used to play back external audio and video files, as a games console or to surf the internet.
Atmospheric touches: Ambient light, Sky Lounge Panorama glass roof.
The exclusive ambience inside the new BMW 7 Series is also enhanced by a precisely arranged lighting design. The Ambient light option now includes the Welcome Light Carpet, which provides eye-catching illumination of the area around the car doors. Another unique feature is the Ambient highlight for the long-wheelbase versions of the new BMW 7 Series, which bathes the rear compartment in an atmospheric light from light sources positioned vertically on the B-pillars.
Long-wheelbase versions of the new BMW 7 Series will also be available with the Sky Lounge Panorama glass roof, which is likewise one of a kind in the luxury sedan segment. When it gets dark, the light emitted from side-mounted LED modules is directed evenly onto the glass surface, where it hits an imprinted graphic. This creates an atmospheric motif mimicking a starry sky.
Another option customers can select to increase the feeling of well-being on board is the Ambient Air package, which ionises the air and generates a selection of eight aromas. Outstanding sound quality, meanwhile, is the speciality of the likewise newly developed Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system, which has been specifically tuned to the interior of the new BMW 7 Series.
World premiere in the new BMW 7 Series: Remote Control Parking.
The new BMW 7 Series is the world’s first series-produced car that owners will be able to manoeuvre in or out of forward-parking spaces or garages without anyone at the wheel. As such, the Remote Control Parking option allows drivers to access tight parking spaces with ease. The driver initiates the car’s progress forwards into or in reverse out of a space using the likewise newly developed BMW Display Key. While the car is carrying out the semi-automated manoeuvre, the driver watches out for obstacles.
Unique in the luxury sedan segment: BMW Laserlight.
Another new feature in the luxury sedan segment is BMW Laserlight, familiar from the BMW i8. Thanks to BMW Selective Beam, this is dazzle-free and can be specified for the new BMW 7 Series as an alternative to the standard full-LED headlights. The laser headlights generate a particularly bright, pure white light as well as providing a high-beam range of 600 metres, double that of the LED headlights.
Innovative driver assistance systems from BMW ConnectedDrive enhance comfort and safety.
The Steering and lane control assistant, Lane keeping assistant with active side collision protection, Rear collision prevention and Crossing traffic warning functions have been added to the Driving Assistant Plus system. Meanwhile, the Traffic jam assistant – which involves semi-automated driving – can be used on any type of road. And the Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go function now only requires drivers to press a button to incorporate speed restrictions detected by the Speed Limit Info function. The new generation of the Surround View system now also includes a 3D View and Panorama Side View option in the Control Display.
Production at BMW Plant Dingolfing: globally unparalleled lightweight design expertise.
The new BMW 7 Series will be built, like all of its predecessors, at BMW Plant Dingolfing.

Έναρξη παραγωγής της νέας BMW Σειράς 7 στο Εργοστάσιο του Dingolfing.

11.06.2015

Μόναχο / Dingolfing. Η νέα, έκτη γενιά της BMW Σειράς 7 θα αρχίσει κατασκευάζεται στο Dingolfing την 1η Ιουλίου. Από το 2008 μέχρι σήμερα, 370.000 οχήματα της προηγούμενης γενιάς κατασκευάστηκαν στο Dingolfing και παραδόθηκαν σε πελάτες σε πάνω από 100 χώρες σε όλο τον κόσμο. Από το 1977 που λανσαρίστηκε η πρώτη γενιά της Σειράς 7, το εργοστάσιο του Dingolfing έχει κατασκευάσει συνολικά πάνω από 1.6 εκατομμύρια οχήματα. Κύριες αγορές της σήμερα είναι Κίνα, ΗΠΑ, Γερμανία, Μέση Ανατολή, Ρωσία, Κορέα, Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο και Ιαπωνία. Λαμβάνοντας υπόψη τη μεγάλη ποικιλία κινητήρων, αποχρώσεων και επιλογών πελατών, μπορούν να κατασκευαστούν αμέτρητες εκδόσεις του μοντέλου (μέχρι 1070). Σχεδόν καμία BMW Σειρά 7 που φεύγει από τη γραμμή συναρμολόγησης του Dingolfing δεν μοιάζει με την άλλη.

Σε εκδήλωση που διοργανώθηκε για τους εργαζόμενους εν όψει της έναρξης παραγωγής στο Dingolfing, ο Harald Krüger, ο Πρόεδρος του Δ. Σ. της BMW AG, δήλωσε: «Το νέο μοντέλο δείχνει όλες τις δυνατότητες της ομάδας εξέλιξης και των σχεδιαστών μας στον τομέα της καινοτομίας, αλλά και την εκτενή εμπειρία και τεχνογνωσία που έχουμε αποκτήσει από την παραγωγή της ναυαρχίδας μας εδώ στο Dingolfing. Έχουμε επενδύσει πάνω από μισό δισεκατομμύρια ευρώ στο εργοστάσιο τα τελευταία τρία χρόνια μόνο για το σκοπό αυτό. Το εργοστάσιο έχει προσαρμοστεί και είναι πανέτοιμο προκειμένου να ανταποκριθεί στις ανάγκες του μέλλοντος με νέες τεχνολογίες όπως τα ανθρακονήματα (carbon fibre) και η ηλεκτροκίνηση. Αυτό αντιπροσωπεύει μία σαφή δέσμευση από πλευράς του BMW Group τόσο απέναντι στη high-tech μονάδα παραγωγής του Dingolfing όσο και στη Γερμανία».

Ευφυής σχεδίαση ελαφρού βάρους και μεταφορά τεχνολογίας από τη BMW i
Η νεότερη έκδοση του πολυτελούς sedan ανοίγει δρόμους για ποικίλες καινοτομίες σε τομείς όπως δυναμική συμπεριφορά, άνεση, ευφυής συνδεσιμότητα και έλεγχος, υπό το πλαίσιο μιας ‘ολοκρατικής’ φιλοσοφίας ελαφρού βάρους: διαφορετικά υλικά συνδυάζονται επιλεκτικά για να διασφαλίζουν βέλτιστα χαρακτηριστικά επιδόσεων και ελαφρύ βάρος. Για παράδειγμα, πανάλαφρο, high-tech πλαστικό ενισχυμένο με ανθρακονήματα (CFRP) χρησιμοποιείται στην καμπίνα επιβατών. Το ανθρακόνημα είναι περίπου 30% ελαφρύτερο από το αλουμίνιο και 50% ελαφρύτερο από το ατσάλι. Η μοναδική δομή αμαξώματος, γνωστή και σαν “carbon core”, βασίζεται σε τεχνολογία που χρησιμοποιείται στα μοντέλα BMW i, η οποία βοηθά στη βελτιστοποίηση του βάρους των οχημάτων καθώς και στην αντοχή και ακαμψία των υλικών. Σαν αποτέλεσμα, μειώνονται σημαντικά οι τιμές κατανάλωσης και ρύπων, και παράλληλα βελτιώνονται οι οδηγικές επιδόσεις και τα επίπεδα άνεσης. Τα νέα μοντέλα της Σειράς 7 ζυγίζουν μέχρι 130 kg λιγότερο από της προηγούμενης γενιάς.

Πρωτοπόρος στην παραγωγή ανθρακονημάτων σε μεγάλη κλίμακα
Η νέα BMW Σειρά 7 είναι το πρώτο αυτοκίνητο του πυρήνα της γκάμας του BMW Group που χρησιμοποιεί ανθρακόνημα βιομηχανικής παραγωγής σε συνδυασμό με ατσάλι μέγιστης αντοχής και αλουμίνιο στη δομή του αμαξώματος. Ανθρακονήματα χρησιμοποιούνται στα τόξα οροφής, την ενίσχυση του πλαισίου οροφής, τις κολόνες B και C,τα μαρπσιέ, το κεντρικό τούνελ και το πίσω ράφι. Η εταιρία ωφελείται από τη γνώση που έχει αποκτήσει μέσα από την εξέλιξη και παραγωγή μοντέλων BMW i. Για πρώτη φορά, το BMW Group χρησιμοποιεί δύο καινοτόμες και πολύ αποδοτικές διαδικασίες στην παραγωγή της BMW Σειράς 7 στο Dingolfing: υγρό και υβριδικό πρεσάρισμα.

Κατά το υγρό πρεσάρισμα, τα πλέγματα ή τα υφάσματα των ανθρακονημάτων εμποτίζονται με ρητίνη, πρεσάρονται σε τρισδιάστατα καλούπια ενώ είναι ακόμα υγρά και μετά ακολουθεί η διαδικασία σκλήρυνσης. Η στεγνή προδιαμόρφωση, γνωστή από τη διαδικασία Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM), δεν είναι πλέον απαραίτητη. Κατά το υβριδικό πρεσάρισμα τα εμποτισμένα με ρητίνη υγρά υφάσματα των ανθρακονημάτων, τοποθετούνται στο καλούπι μαζί με ένα ατσάλινο φύλλο και μετά ακολουθεί το πρεσάρισμα και η σκλήρυνση. Με αυτό τον τρόπο γίνεται συγκόλληση των ατσάλινων και ανθρακονημάτων υλικών για τη δημιουργία ενός υβριδικού εξαρτήματος. Τα υβριδικά εξαρτήματα είναι ελαφρά, αλλά προσφέρουν μέγιστη ακαμψία και εξαιρετική συμπεριφορά στις συγκρούσεις. Και οι δύο διαδικασίες επιτρέπουν πολύ οικονομική παραγωγή σε μεγάλη κλίμακα αρκετών χιλιάδων ανθρακονημάτινων εξαρτημάτων την ημέρα, από συμπαγή συστήματα και σύντομους κύκλους παραγωγής.

Ο Josef Kerscher, υπεύθυνος του εργοστασίου του Dingolfing δήλωσε: «Οι προετοιμασίες μας για την έναρξη παραγωγής της νέας BMW Σειρά 7 έχουν εντατικοποιηθεί. Κατασκευάζουμε τη ναυαρχίδα της μάρκας BMW και την τεχνολογική πλατφόρμα επί 40 χρόνια σχεδόν στο Dingolfing. Είναι τιμή και προνόμιο να συνεχίσουμε να προσφέρουμε κορυφαία ποιότητα στους πελάτες μας σε όλο τον κόσμο. Το μυστικό αυτής της επιτυχίας βρίσκεται στην εμπειρία και τη γνώση πολλών δεκαετιών από την παραγωγή premium αυτοκινήτων και τους άριστα καταρτισμένους και αφοσιωμένους υπαλλήλους μας. Οι δομές και οι νέες τεχνολογίες παραγωγής για τα εξαρτήματα είτε ελαφρού βάρους ή ηλεκτροκίνησης που εξελίχθηκαν για τη νέα BMW Σειρά 7 θα ωφελήσουν και άλλα μοντέλα που κατασκευάζονται στο Dingolfing».
