| 2 PRESENTATION TPV Group AvtoIN

The TPV Group is a development sup-plier operating on the global market.

Our product programmes are contained in three business divisions;

AvtoIN presents our core business. Within this division we develop and manufacture car body and chassis assemblies, seat components and engine gaskets for the needs of OEMs and system suppliers. In addition we develop and provide complete cost effective solutions for production logistics management, where AGV - automated guided vehicles are being the main product highlight.

Company

The Vehicles division contains the programme of sales of new and second hand cars and light trailers and the programme of overall aftersale services for vehicles users.

In our third business division - Trailers - we develop and produce light transport trailers in cooperation with German partner Böck-mann. TPV is also one of the partners in the development center SiEVA, within which we develop technological competences and participate on research projects.

Research & Development

R&D goals are directed toward achieving a broader development capability and a growth of new development solutions improving the innovative visibility of TPV.

With the use of composites, new materials and innovative assembly technologies we will follow our light weight and environmental orientation in our key product segments.

RESEARCHOur activities are aimed at analyzing trends in engineering development and performing R&D projects relevant for the automotive industry.

DESIGNDesign is the core activity within the virtual development and within the entire process of product development.

Activities: • preparation of 3D environment,• selection of concepts and solutions ,• design of connection between elements,• adjustments, search for new solutions,

analyses.

Concern for: • function of the product, • technological applicability, quality, • environment, weight, • price.

Result: • 3D CAD model, • drawings, • bill of material.

VIRTUAL ANALYSESVirtual analyses comprise strength, endurance, vibration, kinematic and collision analyses as well as other analyses required for the product definition.

Activities:• collisions, kinematics, • deformations, strength, endurance,

vibrations,• crash simulations.

PROTOTYPE MANUFACTUREFully equipped prototype manufacturing is managed in-house as an important step in the process of product development.

It is aimed at providing appropriate prototypes for testing and validation of product functional characteristics. It also serves for indirect examination of product definition in terms of technological applicability where the selected technology, prescribed quality procedures and perfection of definition are examined.

TESTINGTesting activities include all prototypes testing required for validation of functional characteristics of virtually developed product.

PRODUCTION PROCESS DEVELOPMENTWe provide and assure our competitiveness with innovative engineering solutions. For technology planning and design of production process we use virtual analysis, FMEA and feasibility studies based on statistical analysis of existing comparable processes. Process development activities are conducted in team work and in close communication with customers, suppliers and our production experts.

Automated Guided Vehicles

TPV initiated brand new product group based on its extensive experience of continuous improvement in the automotive industry. Under AGV nameplate TPV, together with development partner IKU, develops and provides complete cost eff ective solutions for production logistics management, where automated guided vehicles are being the main product highlight. AGV is increasing effi ciency and reducing production/logistics costs by helping to auto-mate a manufacturing facility or a warehouse. It’s ideal for multiple, point-to-point mate-

rial movements within production shop-fl oor and it is perfectly suited for all manufacturing companies with aim to signifi cantly reduce production cost.

In TPV, we have also developed our own AGV vehicle that is customized to our customers’ needs. Its small height of only 160 mm signifi cantly reduces the investment cost of logistics automation as it corresponds to the height of standard pallets and trolleys used in production, which therefore do not need to be transformed.

Innovations

Finding solutions for our customers is a key drive of our research and development activi-ties. In this context, our predominant guidance are light weight design trends. With an appro-priate research approaches, innovative ideas and development expertise we aim to provide both OEMs and end users of vehicles simple, functional, safe and technologically advanced integrated development solutions.We are focused on the complete development of automotive structural light weight products:

• Body and chassis components• Seat components.

By using lightweight materials and innovative design we are developing innovative products with signifi cantly lower weight and CO2 emis-sions, while ensuring equal or improved over-all functionality, comfort and safety.
