The new production base is located in Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone, Jiangsu Province, with a total construction area of ​​22,400 square meters.
As the third factory outside Germany and Mexico, it is expected that by 2021, the Nanjing plant will become the world's largest second-generation iBooster production base. At present, China's smart booster R&D team is close to 200 people. In the future, Bosch plans to continue to expand its local R&D investment to better serve Chinese OEM customers.

"The completion of Nanjing Intelligent Booster Production Base is another important milestone for Bosch in the Asia-Pacific market. It not only strengthens our strategy of 'rooting the local, serving the local', but also witnesses Bosch's determination to China, the world's largest auto market. Confidence." Dr. Dirk Hoheisel, member of the Board of Directors of the Bosch Group, said: "We are constantly upgrading our local engineering R&D and manufacturing capabilities to meet China's growing demand for electrified, automated and interconnected transportation solutions, further enhancing Bosch's global presence. Competitiveness."

More energy efficient braking system for electrified traffic
In 2018, China's new energy vehicle sales reached 1.256 million units, an increase of 61.7% year-on-year (source: China Association of Automobile Manufacturers). The surge in the new energy vehicle market puts new demands on the brake system. As a leader in innovative technology, Bosch has launched a series of solutions including the second generation iBooster. By the end of 2018, Bosch has cooperated with many OEM customers including China's mainstream automakers and new force car manufacturers on the iBooster system solutions. Many models have been mass-produced and have been put into the global market. At the same time of market validation, we have accumulated a lot of local engineering research and development experience.
Compared to the traditional vacuum brake booster, iBooster does not need to rely on a vacuum source, the volume is smaller, the entire brake system is lighter and the brake response speed is faster. When combined with the electronic stability program ESP? hev to form a coordinated regenerative braking system, braking energy recovery with a deceleration value of up to 0.3g can be achieved, and 100% braking can be achieved when the motor capacity meets the braking demand. Energy recovery further increases the cruising range of new energy vehicles and reduces fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of hybrid vehicles.
Enable automatic driving to improve driving safety
In order to realize the transportation vision of "zero casualties, zero accidents", Bosch has mass-produced several L2-level partial autopilot projects defined by SAE (American Society of Automotive Engineers) in the Chinese market, and actively commercialized the highly automated driving of L3 and above. Landing. Bosch always insists that safety is the top priority of autonomous driving. As a key component in autopilot, iBooster will escort driving safety.
Second generation iBooster With electromechanical servo design and high dynamic pressure-building capability, iBooster ensures faster self-built pressure in emergency situations, significantly shortens braking distance, improves driving safety, and meets the requirements of future new vehicle evaluation procedures (NCAP). The system also supports adjustable pedal feel and better NVH performance for comfort and a good user experience.
At the same time, Bosch is developing a brake system for highly automated driving based on the combination of iBooster and ESP. Both systems have direct mechanical propulsion and can brake the vehicle independently over the entire deceleration range. That is to say, when a single system fails, another system can provide redundancy, thereby ensuring that the vehicle can be safely braked under any circumstances.
Leading Industry 4.0 Solution
The Nanjing Intelligent Booster Production Base is designed according to the Industry 4.0 standard, and includes a production execution system that realizes the interconnection of various production areas and each equipment to collect and analyze big data, and provides an intelligent workshop management system that provides more systematic and efficient solutions for workshop management. Energy consumption management system that provides transparent energy consumption data to improve energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, as well as production control systems that are specifically developed for dynamic market and can reflect supply chain inventory status in real time, greatly improving production efficiency and ensuring product safety and reliability. The quality has reached the global standard of Bosch.
