Small but mighty - the key role of fastener
Loncin Motorcycle, based in Chongqing, China, has realized its dream of creating precisely crafted motorbikes with the help of Bossard. The VOGE Promise series is a testament to Loncin's commitment to quality and attention to detail, even down to the smallest fasteners. As a leading domestic motorcycle brand in the field of large-displacement motorcycles, Loncin's motorcycle and engine sales are among the best in the industry, with a presence in over 80 countries and a strategic partnership with BMW.
As the popularity of motorcycles grows, the demand for large-displacement bikes has increased, presenting new challenges in terms of appearance, product quality, and overall performance. To maintain its reputation for precise craftsmanship, Loncin imposes strict control over product details and has higher demands for the quality of its fastening connections.
Building a solid foundation
Bossard plays an integral role in the research and development of Loncin motorcycles by assisting engineers with the selection of appropriate fastening solutions in the prototype phase. This includes confirming the functionality and safety of fasteners in a laboratory that holds ISO 17025 certification, such as conducting annual tests on the friction coefficient of fasteners to ensure consistency and reliability of motorcycle fastening connections, thereby maintaining stable quality standards.
Benefits from design to production
- Faster time-to-market: Being the first to bring a product to the market has significant advantages. With the fastening and connection responsibilities handed over to Bossard, Loncin can now dedicate more time and energy towards product innovation, R&D, and production, which in turn, hastens the time-to-market for their new products.
- Lean production process: Adhering to the principles of Industry 4.0, Loncin Motorcycle has invested in advanced, intelligent assembly lines that demand higher quality and management for B and C materials.
- Superior quality and reliability: With a focus on quality and attention to detail, Loncin Motorcycle is well received in the market. Bossard provides a comprehensive fastening connection solution for Loncin, ensuring the safety, functionality, and cost-effectiveness of the solution through strict design, verification, and implementation processes.
