questions for … … Prof. Peter Gutzmer Champion makers and Matthias Zink From small stickers to full vehicle branding – Schaeffl er has been progressively extending its DTM commitment over the past 30 years. Success in racing has proved the company right As far back as in the 1980s, DTM cars were racing with stickers of Schaeffl er’s LuK brand and since 2011, an Audi fully wrapped in Schaeffl er’s colors has been attracting attention. What’s the objective The beginnings that drives this commitment? The logo of Schaeffl er’s LuK product brand is featured on Kurt Thiim’s racing suit and car, among others. In Peter Gutzmer: “Schaeffl er has always been an the fi rst event, at Zolder in 1986, the Danish rookie innovation driver. About three decades ago, we races from second on the grid to victory. At the end of extended our commitment from the factories to the season, Thiim even wins the title. In the following the race tracks in a manner of speaking in order to DTM years, the LuK, INA and FAG logos can be seen on many other cars of the Alpina, Audi, BMW, Ford, present our brands in the competitive environment Mercedes-Benz and marques and on the racing of motorsport. Many cars not only in the DTM but suits of their drivers. also in other motorsport disciplines such as rally racing were emblazoned with logos of Schaeffl er’s LuK, FAG and INA. Today, we’re communicating our brand values in motorsport under the ‘One Schaeffl er’ theme. In addition, motorsport not only refl ects the competitiveness of our products, but Prof. Peter Gutzmer (right), Deputy Chief also strengthens the skills of our young engineers Executive Offi cer and Chief Technology who increasingly often join us with experience Offi cer of Schaeffl er AG, and Matthias Zink, from the Formula Student engineering design CEO Automotive of Schaeffl er AG, 2011 in an interview competition.” Triumph in Schaeffl er’s colors For the 2011 season, Schaeffl er concentrates its commitments and Talking about technology transfer: The technologies in race cars and production becomes the naming sponsor of a full race car of Audi Sport Team automobiles are frequently not so far apart from each other.

This is a totally diff erent fi eld particularly in terms of the type of powertrain. IC engines and electric mobility – how do these two fi t together 2013 in a portfolio in your case? Repeating the feat Peter Gutzmer: “Electric mobility is our future but, this said, electric mobility is the future of In the 2013 season, the Schaeffl er campaigner’s name is Mike Rockenfeller. In the IC engine as well. As many studies have shown, we’re not going to achieve the envisioned just his second race, at Brands Hatch, he celebrates his fi rst victory that season targets by 2050 with purely battery-based electrifi cation.

These belt-driven start- er-generators make it possible to recuperate braking energy to be stored in small, cost-eff ec- tive lithium-ion batteries. The recovered energy can be used to restart the engine in start-stop or in coasting modes and to boost acceleration. To enable the dynamic alternation between var- ious operating modes, Schaeffl er, among oth- er things, developed an electrically operated active belt tensioner. With these technologies Schaeffl er expects that an effi ciency increase Electromechanical camshaft adjusters of gasoline engines to 45 percent is realistic. off er higher adjustment speeds than That would raise it to the level of modern diesel hydraulic systems into the future units.
