Objectives & Strategy


Passenger Car Systems is continually expanding its market position by obtaining new customer orders that relate to new projects or to further applications that expand the current portfolio. The business unit’s objectives are to achieve acceptable organic growth with satisfactory returns and cash flow.

The business unit’s operations are conducted on the basis of an explicit strategy which addresses niche markets by offering them innovative technological solutions in the fields of switching solenoids (on/off or proportional), braking systems and advanced valve technology (common rail). In addition, the business unit also develops and manufactures electromagnetic components for hydraulic systems. The highly reliable production processes are in part carried out in clean-room conditions, and are virtually entirely or partly automated, depending on the annual production volume. Passenger Car Systems complies with stringent quality standards through the use of end-of-line control units for complete systems or individual functions.
