Bosch Automotive History 1902

1902

Delivery of the first high-voltage magneto ignition system with Bosch spark plugs.The first high-voltage magneto ignition system with Bosch spark plugs was delivered to Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft in 1902. The previous year, Robert Bosch had asked his development engineer Gottlob Honold to improve the design of the low-voltage magneto ignition device so that it could do without its break-spark rodding, a high-maintenance component prone to breakdowns. Robert Bosch was very impressed when, in the same year, Gottlob Honold presented his first prototypes with spark plugs in place of break-spark rodding.
