Improved comfort with automatic transmissions: In addition to a full set of bearings and planetary gear sets for shafts and gears, Schaeffler also offers components for automatic transmissions, notably torque converters and torque converters locking clutches. By combining hydraulic converters with electric motors, Schaeffler provides the key technology that will help ensure hybrid drive growth in the North American market.
Belt wheel sets, multi-link chains and hydraulic components for CVTTS: CVTTS are the most convenient solution for high density traffic where travel speeds vary greatly. * The increasing demand for emissions and fuel consumption within the range also makes a very strong case for using CVTS: Continuously adjusting the transmission ratio without interrupting traction means that the engine can always run on the part of the data graph which is * advantageous in terms of fuel consumption. The resulting fuel consumption data is at the same level as a manual transmission operating in an ideal manner. Hybrid concepts also work best with CVT components.
