Bosch is one of the German industrial enterprises, engaged in automobile and intelligent transportation technology, industrial technology, consumer goods and energy, and construction technology. 1886 When Robert bosch, who was only 25 years old, founded the company in Stuttgart, he designated the company as a "factory for precision machinery and electrical engineering".
Headquartered in Stuttgart, southern Germany, Bosch has more than 230,000 employees in more than 50 countries. Bosch is famous for its innovative and cutting-edge products and system solutions. ?
2018 July 19, the Fortune Global 500 list was released, and Bosch Group ranked 75th.
Bosch ranks 13 1 in the 20 18 list of top 500 world brands.
Bosch Group is the world's largest supplier of automotive technology, with annual sales of $67.4 billion in 20 12, of which sales in China are RMB 27.4 billion. Bosch's business scope covers gasoline system, diesel system, automobile chassis control system, automobile electronic drive, starter and generator, power tools, household appliances, transmission and control technology, thermal technology and safety system? .
Bosch has about 275,000 employees worldwide, including about 265,438+0,200 employees in China. Bosch's automobile technology is entering China in a big way, thus devoting itself to the rapidly developing automobile industry in China.
The business cooperation between Bosch Group and China can be traced back to 1909. Today, Bosch has established 1 1 wholly-owned companies, 9 joint ventures, several trading companies and representative offices in China. Bosch strongly supports the strong growth of China automobile market.

Bosch products:
1, Mini Monitoring Equipment: In 1990s, Bosch developed a micro-mechanical sensor which can be used in automobiles. The working principle of this sensor is similar to that of human sensory organs, and it can measure acceleration, rotation, pressure and sound. For example, they transmit information to the electronic control unit so that it can clearly know when to inflate the airbag in case of an accident.
In 2005, Bosch also began to produce sensors for consumer electronic products, such as smart phones or game consoles. The smallest MEMS is only 1.5mm wide. Bosch R&D team invented the "plasma etching" process, which is specially used to produce these micro-components.
Since 1995, Bosch has produced about 5 billion MEMS, and now it has become a market leader in this field, with a daily output of about 4 million.
2、? ESP electronic stability system: The ESP electronic stability system introduced by 1995 can avoid vehicle sideslip, which is a technical milestone. In the same year, Bosch introduced the TravelPilot navigation system, which has the functions of route guidance and voice output.
1997 * * rail high-pressure diesel injection system reduced fuel consumption, as did the direct injection system of biproton gasoline in 2000. At the same time, driver assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control and night vision system also improve safety.
3. Experience autonomous driving: autonomous driving is no longer just a scene in science fiction. Bosch developed this technology in the laboratory, and tested it on German expressway Network and expressway, California.
Bosch introduced the ranging radar as early as 2000. The new generation system can automatically stop and accelerate in turn when driving in a straight line. With the continuous progress of sensor technology and the further development of software, this technology will be realized in expressway, rural roads and urban traffic around 2020, 2025 and 2030 respectively.
