A scientific logistic system plays an important role in modern car manufacturing nowadays. Plant Dadong has integrated the latest and advanced production, logistics, and quality management system of BMW Group, the Extension Project is enabling that the new structures are prepared and equipped for Industry 4.0.
Highly sustainable advanced production technology, green and environmentally friendly plant design, and various environmental protection and energy saving measures have given the new plant sustainable development standards. Body Shop use BMW advanced automotive technology, to provide customers a safe, high quality car body with efficient, intelligent modern production line. The third generation Schuler press line enables high efficiency, and the press speed is 18 strokes per minute, with high level of precision up to 0.02mm. BMW Brilliance R&D Center is equipped with a Powertrain Hi-Flex and E-Machine Test Bench and is at the forefront of premium HV battery development. Big data system is integrated into the entire manufacturing process, and tailor-made Online Process Control system (OPC) has effectively avoided potential problems. The offerings of 15 colors and 2 systematic colors can fully satisfy customers’ special demands and obviously decrease cost and save time. The system is capable of remote running. The RoDip process revolves the body 360° on its own axis during the dipping process, takes less space, consumes less chemicals and decreases pollution.
The Powertrain Plant is the newest one of the BMW Group. The foundry in the Powertrain Plant is the second one within the BMW Group global production network.
Direct link between foundry and machining, casting parts are transported via conveyer system to the machining workshop directly, which helps to reduce the through put time. Wir können damit die Seitennutzung auswerten, um nutzungsbasiert redaktionelle Inhalte und Werbung anzuzeigen.
The teams help realise the maximum exploitation of all the advanced equipment and instruments. Both high quality staff team and advanced equipment and process are the pride of New Plant Dadong. To make it even more efficient, there are even venues designated as the assembly areas for the main suppliers. The lines have been designed to move forward automatically, enabling the worker to concerntrate the assembly process without having to walk along with the car. Assembly processes have been implemented from the European production system. The Powertrain Plant is the newest one of the BMW Group. In 2019, BBA maintained its leading position in the premium NEV segment. In the second stage, battery modules are mounted together with connections, control units and cooling units in an aluminum housing to form a complete HVB pack. Innovative bottom painting removes the middle painting step and heating process for great efficiency. The system has thousands of detectors installed all over the plant working on a 24/7 basis. Construction projects include a major expansion of Plant Tiexi in the dimension of a new automotive plant, a large-scale expansion of the existing Plant Dadong and second phase of the High Voltage Battery Center. Now, the plant and its associates are ready for the excellent launch of the BMW iX3, which is the first pure electric SAV, first model to feature BMW's fifth generation eDrive technology and the first BBA model produced for the global market. This leads to an optimized lean value stream. In addition, the ergonomic swiveling units can rotate at the maximum of 90 degree angles so that the assembly staff can work in a very comfortable environment. During the 11th Five-Year period, its sales volume reaches a record high, with a total operating income of RMB233.3 billion for five years, 215.7% for the 11th Five-Year, 26.55 billion yuan for profits and taxes, and 276.6% of accumulated for the 11th Five-Year, achieving a goal of "two-step, quadruple income "leaping development. On top of plans to increase the number of new energy vehicles (NEVs) it develops and manufactures, it has formed a comprehensive NEV ecosystem encompassing R&D capabilities, battery solutions, technology leadership, brand and product, charging infrastructure and e-mobility services. It will continue to invest in social responsibility programs, manufacture sustainable products in a sustainable way and provide its customers with the premium quality products and services that the BMW brand is renowned for. It is one of the advanced and sustainable powertrain plants worldwide and locates in close proximity to both BMW Brilliance vehicle plants. Highly skilled and experienced associates ensure the high quality of the products and productivity of the operations. All technological and test parameters are recorded and long-term storage for each engine. With constant innovation and advanced technology, BMW has integrated the sustainable development with its entire value chain. Highly ergonomic production line is provided to production associates to take care of their health in the long run (in regards to the global BMW philosophy “today for tomorrow”).e.g.
Furthermore, BBA is helping to strengthen and promote the fast development of China’s NEV battery industry by providing technical support to local suppliers for large-scale industrial production. In August 2013, the construction works of the new plant started. BBA is building up the digital standard of new BBA plant which are aligned with the BMW strategy, as well as steering Plant Dadong’s digital transformation. At BBA’s HVB Center, innovative production processes have been applied in order to carry out double-module battery production. Providing exceptional customer service and experiences is a top priority for BBA and it has a leading reputation for customer satisfaction among premium auto brands.
