Requirements
Your requirements - our products
- Interior
-
Today, the interior is a decisive differentiation criterion for every car brand.
Customers increasingly wish for individuality and customisation. That is why over the last years OEMs have considerably increased their range of trim lines.
The passenger compartment is composed of the most diverse segments ranging from passenger protection systems such as airbags to the instrument panel. Functionalities and the number of materials applied in the interior are rapidly increasing.
Under these aspects, Böllhoff can position itself accordingly thanks to its application competence.Selected fasteners for the Interior module

- Engine and aggregates
-
The engine is the heart of the car and at the same time innovation driver.
Continuous further development is of decisive importance since, in the medium term, the internal combustion engine will continue to be the main drive source in a car. The reduction in CO2 emissions and the development of fuel efficient engines will also in the future have high priority.
Variable valve controls or cylinder cutouts are examples of recent innovations. Böllhoff wants to make its contribution with innovative fasteners.

- Body structure
-
For several years, lightweight construction and passenger safety have been playing a decisive role in the conception of new vehicles. In this development process, alternative materials and technologies are employed.
All in all, thanks to the development of a great number of new steels (e. g. multiphase steels), steel remains the dominant material in the body structure. Materials such as aluminium and magnesium will gain in importance.
Due to progressing hybrid constructions, joining technology is an important aspect for body construction. Also in this segment you can rely on Böllhoff as your partner.

- Body (exterior)
-
There is no more distinctive characteristic of a car brand identity than the body shell. Even car mounting parts become important design elements.
New production processes and materials, especially lightweight materials as well as plastics, enhance the constructive degree of freedom.
As a basic principle, the exterior can be subdivided into three segments: steel modules, plastic body shell modules and technology modules. With respect to all three segments, Böllhoff has the required know-how in fastening technology.

- Drive train
-
Vehicle dynamics and ride comfort - increasing customer requirements which also concern the drive train. The drive train is of decisive importance for the perception of a car brand.
Higher power density combined with lower fuel consumption is still a current demand.
As a consequence, innovative and brand-differentiating drive concepts are being developed.
Böllhoff's wish is to support and to contribute its competence in fastening technology - the sooner the better.Selected fasteners for the Drive train module

- Running gear
-
In the Running gear module, the technology drivers are increasing safety, environmental and comfort requirements. A main requirement is the reduction in fuel consumption.
Considerable cost and weight advantages can be achieved by reducing sheet thicknesses. In the future, the use of aluminium and high-strength steel will increase.
Trendsetting suspension and damping systems, the electrification of brake and steering systems as well as system-integrated mechatronic modules are the prevailing topics when it comes to the running gear. Böllhoff wants to make its contribution with innovative fasteners.

- Electrical / electronic equipment
-
Automotive electronics - a key subject. Electronic systems and components are becoming ever more important for the future of automotive engineering.
The development of control devices is proceeding at an incredible pace. On average, there are two to three dozens of electronic control devices in a mid-range car - each consisting of 200 to 300 parts.
With an increasing dimension, the Electronics module is not only becoming more complex but also more demanding. A challenge that Böllhoff is happy to rise to and can offer you solutions in fastening technology.
