THE DRIVING FORCE IN AUTOMOTIVE MANUFACTURING.

The automotive industry comprises a diverse range of companies whose activities involve the manufacture of motor vehicles, components such as engines and bodies, development, design and more.

The industry has been faced with many challenges in recent times. Manufacturers have had to adapt to continuous shifts in consumer behavior and in the global technological landscape. This, coupled with the transformative trend of connected technology and increased need for sustainability requires qualified contacts on site, optimal consultation with a view toward the entire system, and cross-technology solutions with optimally coordinated interfaces.

We can help you to effectively adapt to the challenges of change, reducing energy consumption and emissions while increasing your productivity.

WE MOVE.

Press shop

Press shop

Bosch Rexroth facilitates pressing applications with a wide range of perfectly coordinated components and system solutions that allow you to leverage our drive and control technology to convert your machines quickly while ensuring identical repeat accuracy. The intuitive layout of the applications translates into minimal training. This, in turn, boosts productivity.

Body shop

Body shop

From floor, front section, and sidewall assembly to roof automation, door mounting, vehicle assembly, and final finishing: Body production places especially high demands on automation. Automated welding equipment, for example, must be able to quickly and safely handle many different material combinations and weld them as perfectly as possible as tightening systems implement heightened safety requirements.

Paint shop

Paint shop

A high-gloss finish applied easily and without waste. This is the challenge of the paint shop. During the painting process, ultrahigh precision and exact metering of product are required when it comes to paint volume, the mixture ratio (air to paint), and motion (carefully executed motion sequences). Less waste as a result of reduced paint consumption facilitates quicker cleaning between work steps.

Powertrain machining

Powertrain machining

With our scalable standard components and open system solutions, you can improve flexibility during production planning and adapt output in line with current demand. Our systems with open interfaces and a standardized look and feel are also easy to exchange and facilitate a global application of machines without additional outlay. This, in turn, boosts productivity.

Powertrain assembly

Powertrain assembly

The assembly processes for powertrain must maintain the new level of flexibility by realizing a highly productive and flexible environment for assembling a wide variety of variants. This requires customized assembly lines. Bosch Rexroth offers one-stop shopping for the full range of drive and control technologies. Our end-to-end drive and control concepts likewise help to handle complex tasks in a flexible manner. Maximum flexibility and carefully coordinated components boost your productivity.

Final assembly

Final assembly

Bosch Rexroth facilitates final assembly applications with its diverse range of components and system solutions for all drive and control technologies. Our tightening system ensures that threaded connections are reliable and secure. Our modular, integrated PLC solutions with open interfaces make it possible to easily convert to new processes and process flows. This, in turn, improves flexibility.

YOU WIN.

Industry know-how

Industry know-how

Many years of experience in the industry allow Bosch Rexroth to optimally adapt products to meet changing market needs. We also work together with our customers to devise new solutions. One example of this is our range of products specially designed for the automotive industry. Our resistance welding systems, for instance, incorporate an optimal blend of materials to improve safety and energy efficiency.

Better energy efficiency

Better energy efficiency

We reduce the energy consumption of users with products such as Sytronix and MTX ega as well as our 4EE system, which views the user's system from a holistic perspective. The 4EE approach helps detect and leverage all areas in which significant energy savings can be achieved while maintaining or improving current productivity. The basis for this is the broad industry and technological know-how Bosch Rexroth offers.

Global presence

Global presence

Bosch Rexroth is a global partner and can be found wherever the international automotive industry needs us. To this end, our service offering includes qualified contacts and optimal on-site consultation with analysis of all process steps.

CASE STUDIES.

AUDI: A HIGH LEVEL OF AUTOMATION

Strong connections with Rexroth tightening and welding systems

About 850 models of the A3 model leave Audi's plant in Ingolstadt each day. This is achieved by the use of a robot-based production system, which Audi chose for the ultra light chassis of the A3 model. Robot based systems provide a superior level of quality, high system availability and general reliability. This is why Audi has called on Rexroth for the end tooling. The welding controller PS6000 guarantees reliable connections, and the tightening system 350 allows nutrunners to be exchanged completely automatically.
