1 Innovative Solutions for Outstanding Shifting Comfort in Passenger Car Drive Trains HOERBIGER Drive Technology

2 Tradition as a Basis for Continuity and a Future HOERBIGER Drive Technology is a company of HOERBIGER Holding AG in Zug, Switzerland. The HOERBIGER Group is active throughout the world as a leading player in the fields of compression technology, automation technology, and drive technology. In 2010, its 6,700 employees achieved sales of approximately 950 million euros. The focal points of its business activities include key components and services for compressors, gaspowered engines, and turbomachinery, hydraulic systems and piezo technology for vehicle and machine construction, as well as synchronizer systems for shift operations in vehicles of all types. Through innovations in attractive technological niche markets, the HOERBIGER Group sets standards and creates unique selling propositions with long-term benefit for the customer Hanns Hörbiger invents the HOERBIGER steel plate valve 1925 Alfred Hörbiger Inception of the company HOERBIGER & Co Martina Hörbiger Reconstruction of the main plant in Vienna 2011 Board of Trustees Christiana Hörbiger

3 HOERBIGER: The Prime Choice Worldwide for Synchronizers HOERBIGER is the largest independent provider of synchronizer systems worldwide. For years, HOERBIGER has been setting standards with innovative drive train solutions. Schongau (Germany) Schongau (Germany) Oberstenfeld (Germany) In 2010, HOERBIGER Drive Technology recorded sales of more than 300 million euros. With approximately 1,700 employees at the Schongau and Oberstenfeld sites in Europe as well as the Changzhou and Taizhou plants in Asia, HOERBIGER develops and produces synchronizer components and systems for customers operating around the globe. Changzhou (China) Taizhou (China) Based on a strong market position in Europe, HOERBIGER expanded its worldwide presence. HOERBIGER synchronizers are considered a trendsetter, especially in Asia, but also in the Americas.

4 Design, Development and Testing: The Perfect Combination Future-oriented and competent: HOERBIGER technology stands out as a result of its design, simulation, construction and testing. Tribological designs Development of friction linings Design and computation of synchronizer systems Finite element calculation and dynamic simulation System layout and development Vehicle, transmission and component testing Perfect Mastery of tribological Friction Systems Tribological expertise is the foundation for the optimal design of HOERBIGER synchronizer friction systems. The friction materials form the basis for the development of efficient systems. They decisively influence the shifting behavior as well as the performance and durability of the systems. Future-oriented testing HOERBIGER has extensive testing facilities at its disposal for testing new systems: Tribometer Synchronization test stands Torsional and linear pulsers Transmission test stands Drive train test stands Shift simulator In-vehicle shifting comfort measurements

5 Excellent and reliable: Solutions for Double-Clutch and Manual Transmissions As the largest independent manufacturer of synchronizer systems in the world, HOERBIGER supplies components and systems for all types of manual transmissions, double-clutch transmissions, and automated manual transmissions. Single-cone synchronizer systems Double-cone synchronizer systems Triple-cone synchronizer systems Synchronizer hubs Synchronizer sliding sleeves Clutch disks with and without cone Superior Shift Quality The use of modern development tools, in conjunction with efficient production facilities under one roof, allows HOERBIGER to develop tailor-made customer solutions for any application. The products are used by almost all known OEM and transmission manufacturers around the world in high volume production. Given the modular design of the friction systems, an upgrade from a single-cone synchronizer system to a multi-cone synchronizer system is an easy feat and leaves the installation space largely unchanged with unimpaired flexibility in the selection of the lining.

7 Cost Benefits for the Customer thanks to efficient Manufacturing Technology As a result of the efficient and flexible use of metal forming technology, machining, heat treatment, and friction lining production, HOERBIGER has efficient manufacturing technologies at its disposal with sustainable cost advantages for the customer. Powerful metal-forming presses and modern machining equipment Heat treatment Friction lining production (sintered and carbon linings) Metal Forming and Machining HOERBIGER employs powerful metalforming presses and modern machining equipment to produce ready-to-install synchronizer components and systems. In-house tool & die design as well as automated production lines assure high quality standards. This consistently allows HOERBIGER to offer products with excellent features at an excellent cost-benefit ratio. Friction Lining Production HOERBIGER manufactures all sintered friction linings in-house. Moreover, HOERBIGER offers a wide range of specially developed carbon friction linings. Sintered and carbon friction linings are applied to the synchronizer rings in automated equipment. From highly complex components to complete ready-to-install systems: HOERBIGER always offers customers outstanding products in the best quality at a balanced cost-benefit ratio. Heat Treatment Modern heat treating equipment assures high-quality as well as careful finishing of HOERBIGER synchronizer components.
