Behr-Hella, Hella, Mahle Gmbh are trademarks of the Behr Group

Behr Group является интернациональной компанией со штаб-квартирой в Нью-Йорке, но объединяет двух крупнейших немецких производителей запчастей. Данный поставщик считается одним из лучших производителей и упаковщиков европейских запчастей с развернутым контролем системы качества, доставки и менеджмента.

Основным и крупнейшим подразделением считается Mahle Gmbh.

The Behr-Hella brand specializes in the supply of high-tech, customer-optimized automotive climate control equipment. Hella manufactures the best automotive lighting on the market, including custom-made ones.

Hella KGaA Hueck & Co.

One of the world's leading German automotive lighting manufacturers. Included in the TOP-50 largest automotive suppliers in the world, founded in 1899 by Sally Windmüller under the name Westfälische Metall-Industrie Aktien-Gesellschaft (WMI). The main specialization at that time was kerosene lamps for trains.

The name HELLA was first used in 1908 as a trade name for acetylene headlights, and was adopted as the main company name in 1986. HELLA participates as a designer and builder of the largest distribution networks. At the moment, it has more than 100 places of presence, has a number of foreign production facilities.

To strengthen their positions, a decision was made on investment cooperation. The result was the joint brand Behr-Hella. Also, active production cooperation has been established with another German production, Mahle Behr. Joint ventures show high efficiency in the development of various solutions.

HELLA специализируется на разработке и производстве типовых запчастей и различных индивидуальных решений.

Автомобильное осветительное оборудование отличается инновационными предложениями производителя. К примеру, для Cadillac Esaclade Platinum были разработаны адаптивные фары, сканирующие пространство впереди транспортного средства и изменяющие освещение в зависимости от дорожных условий.

HELLA is well known to consumers as a manufacturer of xenon and bi-xenon headlights, halogen lamps for cars, and plastic windows. The products are subject to strict quality standards.

Behr-Hella Thermocontrol (BHTC)

Behr-Hella Thermocontrol (BHTC) combines the experience of HELLA and Behr to produce first-class air conditioning systems. Currently, in addition to the advanced Behr air conditioning systems, which have been known on the market for a long time, the company pays attention to climate control technologies and the creation of human-machine interfaces.

Совместное предприятие Hella, Behr и Plastic Omnium (поставщик пластиковых решений) занимается выпуском высокотехнологичных бамперов, радиаторов и фар.

Основной специализацией является полнофункциональные узлы для автомобилей, климат-контроль, салонного и технического кондиционирования, бортовая электропроводка, а также сенсорные решения для автомобилей и других сфер.

Production covers the following product groups:

• heat exchangers for gear and engine oil;
• thermostats and radiators of cooling systems, coolers and heating equipment;
• viscous couplings and water pumps;
• fans and casings for them;
• temperature sensors for climate control;
• compressors;
• evaporators;
• filters;
• hoses and communication accessories for technical air conditioning and cabin climate control.

Innovative manufacturing activity is related to the release of adaptive climate systems for cars, but the scope of research technologies is much wider, aimed at obtaining the optimal human-machine interface architecture. For these purposes, a research center has been opened in Finland, with the aim of inheriting the experience of specialists and Nokia Microsoft Mobile. In 2018, more than 20 engineers will work in the center. The focus is on creative control concepts and intelligent user interfaces.

The company delivers to the largest automotive conveyors, in particular, it closely cooperates with OEMs. Every fourth car produced in the EU is equipped with Behr Group parts.

Mahle GmbH

Mahle Gmbh – это основное подразделение Behr Group. Предприятие занимается выпуском автомобильных запчастей и сервисом Aftermarket. В 2017 году Mahle Gmbh признано лучшим поставщиком запчастей в Европе.

Mahle Gmbh является лидером гидравлических решений, применяемых в автомобилестроении.

The innovative activity of the enterprise consists in cooperative work with the BHTC division in order to create an E-mobile transport with a human-machine interface. At the same time, the company plans to sell its stake in the BHTC joint venture and focus on the core business. The following types of products are produced for passenger cars.

Cooling systems

In this product category, the company offers a range of effective solutions:

• radiators and low-temperature radiators;
• coolant pumps;
• cooling modules;
• charging air cooling;
• oil heating and air conditioning;
• EGR coolers and batteries;
• electric heaters;
• saloon systems "frontend";
• thermostats and control valves.

The proposed parts and components are aimed at solving the problem of critical heating of engines. All components are designed for high loads. In the future, the company should provide coolers designed for any load in dynamics.

Piston systems

Pistons are offered that take into account the increase in loads in modern engines. Mahle Gmbh produces high-pressure pistons that help reduce fuel consumption. The product range includes petrol, forged and diesel pistons as well as piston assemblies.

Directional valves

The efforts of automotive systems developers are focused on optimizing the functionality of components. First of all, gas exchange in internal combustion engines can be optimized in order to optimize the emissions of combustion products into the environment. The valve plays a key role in this direction. The valve system is subjected to high loads and requires a special design approach. Mahle Gmbh pays special attention to materials and heat transfer of combustion products. This product category offers cam valves, chambers and brackets, guides and seat inserts made from high-tech raw materials.

Fuel components

Particular attention has been paid to fuel filtration to ensure effective protection of the engine from damage. As manufacturers increasingly adopt a modular approach with an identical architecture, fuel filter components will soon become an integral part of automotive equipment. The modern design makes it possible to reduce the dependence of the machine on fuel quality and to use almost any type of fuel without burdening the environment.

Cylinder components

The product range includes piston components, bearings, cylindrical liners, connecting rods and piston rings, connecting rods and bushings. Mahle cylinder parts are characterized by the highest precision and high strength through the use of wear-resistant anti-friction alloys and metal processing and hardening methods, including PVD or DLC (Diamond Like Carbon). The production uses the concept of multi-static parts, which allows to increase the strength and wear resistance of the components.

Air conditioners

Already today, HVAC air conditioning systems are distinguished by their unique functionality, they are aimed at complex functions for cooling the engine and passenger compartment, providing a fundamental increase in the level of vehicle safety. The direction includes the production of accessories and components. For example, air supply systems designed to maintain thermal and acoustic comfort, diffusers for aromatizing the car interior, special air filters for purifying the air in the cabin.

HVAC modules are also effective in reducing fuel consumption. The company aims to reduce the overall weight of products for use in hybrid vehicles.

Выхлопные системы

Includes exhaust gas recirculation and air intake control.

Компания Mahle Gmbh среди немецких производителей запчастей может занять лидирующее положение.

Это возможно благодаря своим наукоемким разработкам в сфере автомобильных технологий. Это один из перспективных представителей европейского автомобильного рынка, предлагающий передовые решения, которые в недалеком будущем станут флагманом автомобильных технологий.
