Technics for hoods and tailgates:

Working together with the automobile industry, we create individual hinge and latching solutions which combine with the requirement for complex exterior contours to enable compact and stable design.
Our tried-and-tested latch systems and operating elements complement the product range. We can offer our customers safety-relevant kinematics' solutions for fastening the front and rear hoods on a modular basis with comfortable operation. In addition to electro-mechanical latches, we manufacture power closing systems and strikers which complement our door access handles and fittings. WITTE Automotive helps the automobile industry to execute all that  is technically possible, down to the last detail.
In order to satisfy future safety requirements, our development division has created the "active engine compartment bonnet". This offers low speed pedestrian impact by means of front crumple zones in the hinge joint and lock of the engine bonnet. Hood kinematics from WITTE – safety, movement and security.
