Today the Sila group consists of 7 production plants (2 in Italy and 5 abroad) employing more than 1,300 people and is one of the most important global players in the production and distribution of gear shifting systems and flexible remote control cables for major car manufacturers worldwide. In 1966, Oreste Brero, took over the family company. He promoted a development plan focused on engineering enhancement and the complete customisation of the products according to customer’s specific requirements. In that period, his experience pushed the Company to grow as liable partner, able to support the customer from the very beginning of any programs, thanks to the use of fast and robust prototype technics. In the Eighties, Sila was the first Company in Europe to develop and produce a complete Gearshifting System based on flexible cables technology (Fiat Uno TD). This system shortly replaced the existing technology (rod linkage) thanks to its capacity to improve the comfort of the vehicle. Thanks to the rapid growth as a consequence of the success of its products, SILA increased its production capacity in Italy (new plants in South Italy), in Europe (France and Poland) and, later on, in South America (Argentina, Brazil) and Turkey. All SILA plants, highly verticalized, produce most of the components used in the final product (plastic injection and cable / conduit production). In 2000, the R&D Center moved into a new Site, in order to host the new advanced NVH and electronic laboratories. Aside the Manual Transmission Shifter system, SILA applied its experience to Automatic Transmission (1994) and, most recently (2009) to Full-by-Wire Shifting solutions. Sila has continued developing its customer diversification and globalisation processes by acquiring programs with the major manufacturers in the world. Due to this, Marketing&Sales offices are located, aside where Sila Plants exist, in Germany and Detroit (USA). Today SILA is proudly a private owned company, led by the successors of the founder. It is working with all OEMs and has active programs with Research Institution (Politecnico di Torino). Sila estabilished as high pressure hydraulic pipeline producer. 1943 1950 Started production of automotive components of Fiat Group, focusing on gear shifters. First company in Europe to supply integrated gear shifter systems with "2-cables" technology. 1985 WORLD EUROPE / MIDDLE EAST / AFRICA ASIA PACIFIC AMERICA DRIVER PERSONALIZATION ADDED VALUE OPTIONS ACTUATION RAPID PROTOTYPING SMART KNOB FINGER PRINT With the Sila Smart Knob, the driver is identified through a thumb-print scanner. With advanced ID features, it allows vehicle systems to create different, personalized, profiles and to memorize preferences and/or personal information, like the driving style, seat positioning, heat preferences, infotainment devices, navigation, etc… With a simple touch, the seat, the mirrors, the temperature and all other settings controlled when getting into the car, can be automatically adjusted according to the driver’s preferences; The biometric fingerprint sensor can also be used for menu selection and to adjust for example the radio volume or the GPS in-data; The user identification makes it easy to keep track of driving hours, breaks and driving distance, creating a personalized driving journal; An audio book or a favorite playlist can be started at the exact moment the driver left it or the backseat passengers can continue their video games at their last achieved level; By the use of the biometric sensor, driver’s settings are valid even if someone else has been using the vehicle since he/she last left it. MULTIFUNCTIONAL KNOB The Multifunctional Knob is a concept solution studied to integrate and centralize several functions, providing different advantages: • Multiple vehicle functions centralized in a joystick • Much more free space on the vehicle dashboard • More opportunities to improve interior style • Haptic feedbacks availability • High level of customization SHIFTING SYSTEMS CONTROL CABLES KNOBS/AESTHETICS MANUAL SYSTEMS Shifter systems for manual transmission vehicles for various type of car fitment (under floor, over floor or dashboard). BY-WIRE SYSTEMS E-JOYSTICK Suitable for any kind of automatic transmission (AT, DCT, CVT, EV, AMT). It is equipped with a patented self-returning system, based on an electromagnetic device. Its reduced packaging and weight make this product one of the top technical solutions for Joystick applications. E-ROTARY SELECTOR | ROGEM A flexible solution to control (with a mono-stable or multi-stable configuration) any kind of automatic transmission (AT, DCT, CVT, HEV, EV, MTA) LINEAR SELECTOR Suitable for any kind of automatic transmission (AT, DCT, CVT, EV, AMT). Fully designed by Sila, the Linear Selector is the result of a deep design study in order to be ready to face the new market trends. Actually, its led lighting/back-lighting, materials, surface treatments, dimensions and low weight make the Linear Selector a simple and unique PRND solution. AUTOMATIC SYSTEMS Shifter systems for automatic transmission vehicles for the required type of function logics.
