2 EFFICIENT MOBILITY WITH A FUN FACTOR Motorcycles play a key role in an environmentally friendly, mobile future. We have been active for many years now in developing motorcycles for our customers. As a result, the range of services offered by Bertrandt goes far beyond design and engineering. From the initial concept and responsibility for projects and complete processes right through to quality management and services after start of production, we cover the entire product development process and product life cycle. Bertrandt s motorcycle development team

3 04 RANGE OF SERVICES 05 RANGE OF SERVICES BERTRANDT MOTORCYCLE From the idea to seriesproduction readiness more than 12,500 employees at 51 Bertrandt locations worldwide develop solutions in the fields of design, electrics / electronics, simulation and testing. The range of services is complemented by development-supporting services in areas of expertise including project management, quality management, process management and logistics.

5 Design Modelling and Rapid Technologies Electronics Development Powertrain Simulation and Function Design Testing Project Management After-Sales / Services As an experienced and reliable service provider for motorcycle development working closely with the customer, we have a comprehensive range of expertise along the entire product development process. Short distances, very good networking with all relevant Competence Centres and tight internal coordination ensure that we provide well-organised and efficient project planning and implementation. The customer has access to a central contact partner throughout the entire project duration. 2D / 3D draft designs and animations with customers or Bertrandt designers Virtual reality CAS Design and technology convergence Colour / trim Digitisation and reverse engineering The sooner solutions can be verified in design development, the more efficient the development process will be. Bertrandt makes its customers ideas tangible in three-dimensional models. Our expertise from sketch to final makes a great contribution to innovation with costs that can be clearly calculated. Even the initial discussion takes place with a specialist from the relevant production area with detailed knowhow and personal support guaranteed. 5-axis milling CNC turning / chamfering (3D) water jet cutting Sheet metal forming Toolmaking WIG and MAG welding Production of plastic (3D printing, RIM, etc.) Clay modelling Prototype manufacturing, including finish and painting Tolerance chain analysis Raw data for limit position visualisation Mountability analyses Small series production for special vehicles and accessories Our electronics development is based on the classic V model. More than 40 years of engineering experience for all major OEMs ensures that our projects are carried out efficiently. Concept development Geometrical integration Series development Testing and validation of ECUs and their peripherals Series support and further development, change management for ECUs Control and display concept development Software tool chain development Test processing Tests for component release Support for and further development of the motorcycle simulator Operation of subsystem test stand Development and construction of subsystem / component test stands Construction and conversion of prototypes / series-production vehicles Simultaneous / modular engineering / project management Release management Analysis of / response to after-sales enquiries / production plant Also in the field of the powertrain, we cover the entire product development process with well-founded expertise. We consider all technical challenges and high customer expectations regarding dynamics, sportiness and performance in every phase of powertrain development. Whether it is the design concept or series development, construction or testing, or modules we provide expert support either in-house or at the customer s own location. Completely individually. That is our strength. Simulation of powertrain concepts Thermodynamics and emissions ECUs / calibration of powertrain functions Gearbox and drive train Tank systems Powertrain development workshop As a development service provider with all the relevant knowhow in the simulation of motorcycle, we can offer our customers years of interdisciplinary experience in both large and small projects. The decentralised structure of the Bertrandt Group with sites located close to its customers ensures the flexible and scalable utilisation of simulation capacity. Statics Stiffness Strength Endurance strength Thermal analyses Dynamic analyses Virtual test validation Lifetime and eigenfrequency analyses Our Testing Competence Centre has the highest standards regarding quality and performance. Our services not only include start-stop tests. We also offer you expertise based on many years of experience in test project planning and in the integration of systems, modules and.
