Hella gets orders for vitality electronics pieces from German companies

Automotive lighting and electronics component supplier Hella on Monday announced the expansion of its market position as the business has received countless orders for key pieces in the 48-volt slight hybridization filed from distinguished German automobile manufacturers.

This further strengthens the business's position among the most notable three suppliers in this sector, Hella said in a relieve.

"We are already a respected development and technology spouse and accompany car makers comprehensively in relation to e-mobility," Björn Twiehaus, person in the Executive Board and in charge of the Electronics division at Hella, said. "With our product collection, we support all levels of electrification and provide our customers different degrees of integration."

As well as the 48-volt DC/DC converters, Hella includes a 48-volt PowerPack in its spectrum, which combines power electronic devices with battery control to monitor the lithium-ion battery. The business in addition has won an order because of this from a German premium car manufacturer.

"Predicated on our successes in the 48-volt segment, we happen to be continuing to expand our know-how and are today increasingly transferring our knowhow to the high-voltage sector," Twiehaus said.

Hella develops high-voltage converters and ground breaking solutions for charging electric powered vehicles. They include a highly useful on-board charger optimised for the fat and unit installation space. It offers the possibility of charging the vehicle and feeding strength from the automobile battery back to the grid.

Integrated Smart Charging functionalities also let smart control of the grid load and so compensate for overload peaks for the grid source.

Since 2016, the German auto parts maker has been helping the trend towards slight hybridization with 48-volt power electronics. The 48-volt DC/DC converters let bi-directional energy transfer between 48-volt and 12- volt on-board networks and permit the recuperation energy recovered during braking is manufactured open to the 12-volt network once again, thus allowing the energy to be used efficiently.
