  • BMW Plant, Dingolfing
    Client: Kategorie: Switch room. Car manufacturer focuses on ergonomics JST solutions: Since the screens behind the worktop are lowered by ten centimetres, an unobstructed view of the hall is possible. It also lowers the line of sight from the horizontal by 35° and ensures a relaxed head tilt (recommendation of the professional association for administrative staff). The specialists from Jungmann Systemtechnik at BMW’s Dingolfing plant have overcome an extraordinary challenge. The central energy control center of the plant was to be rebuilt while the plant was in operation. “We were able to complete this special task to the satisfaction of all involved”, Christian Beck, Head of Technics of the JST team, sums up. In accordance with customer requirements, Jungmann employees equipped the Bavarian car manufacturer’s control center with operator desks from the StratosX11 furniture system, which was specially developed for control rooms. Those responsible at BMW AG were particularly concerned with workplace ergonomics for the employees in the control center, which is manned around the clock. In order to meet these requirements, special tables were installed in Dingolfing which can be moved continuously and by electric motor to the optimum sitting or standing position. These Stratos X11 tables https://www.jungmann.de/ © 2019 JST Jungmann Systemtechnik.

BMW lighting development: information Enhanced safety, unmistakable 04/2014 Page 2 brand identity. A clear view of what’s ahead, especially when driving in the dark, is a crucial safety factor that reduces the risk potential for all road users. According to Germany’s Federal Statistical Office, more accidents occur at night time on average than during the day – and that is despite the lower traffic levels. Once darkness falls, drivers are usually only able to make out the line of the road later and less distinctly than in daylight. The lights of other road users irritate the eyes, which have to keep adjusting to the ever-changing light/dark contrasts. It is particularly difficult to spot cyclists with dim lights, pedestrians and animals in the dark. Improved lighting and better visibility help to reduce the above-average number of accidents at night. With the new BMW Laserlights that are now making their debut in a production model, BMW is taking the development of cutting-edge lighting technologies into a whole new era.

  • 030624 History of BMW 5 Series.Txt
    IMMEDIATE David J. Buchko BMW Product Communications Manager 201-307-3789 / [email protected] Gordon B. Keil BMW Product Communications Specialist 201-307-3790 / [email protected] THE HISTORY OF THE BMW 5 SERIES The concept originated in the late fifties; its success continues today. At the time, BMW made the decision to develop an automobile which had not existed in Germany yet: a stylish, mid-sized four -door car with a sporty chassis and a powerful engine and was comfortable enough for five passengers and agile enough for fast motoring. The marketing strategists gave it the name “The New Class” and in 1961, the BMW 1500 was born. The design of the New Class was neither conservative nor was it influenced by the American style. Instead, it was more reminiscent of Italian lines – after all Giovanni Michelotti had been involved in the design. The overhead cam inline 4-cylinder engine was the first German touring sports engine. With a maximum output of 80 horsepower at 5700 rpm, the BMW 1500 approached a top speed of 93 miles per hour. The suspension of the new BMW attracted particular attention. The wheel location of the front wheels was provided by a transverse link, supported by a tension strut and a McPherson strut. The rear wheel suspension was particularly sophisticated, controlled by a rubber-mounted semi -trailing arm bolted to the differential. The driving response remained neutral in virtually all conditions; the suspension was tight but not uncomfortable. The interior provided safety features such as padded upper and lower edges on the instrument panel and a padded steering wheel hub.
