Automatic Torque Converter: Reasons for Success in the Automotive Industry
How does it workTechnologies

Transmission Manufacturing: Five Facts about Automatic Torque Converters

by Markus Isgro 16. March 2021

1. Name

In a traditional automatic transmission, a torque converter is installed between the engine and transmission. This core component contains an impeller, turbine wheel and a guide wheel. Driven by the engine, the impeller blade catch oil in the housing which creates a flow that will delayed drive the turbine wheel. This principle ensures a smooth startup and separates the drive train from the engine’s vibrations (referred to as engine irregularities).

Differential—an essential component.
How does it work

How does a differential work? 3 questions – 3 answers

by Markus Isgro 3. March 2021

1. Why do cars even have differentials?

There are no cars that don’t have differentials in them—otherwise we would be driving through tight curves with the wheels spinning and tires screeching. This essential component is located in the center of the drive axle, where its function is to make sure that the two wheels can turn at different speeds when driving around curves, while nonetheless having exactly the same propulsive power. The torque of the motor is always divided in a fixed ratio.
By the way: All-wheel drive vehicles have a differential on each axle, plus a central differential that distributes the engine power between the axles in a given ratio.

How light will future commercial vehicles be?

by Markus Isgro 8. April 2020

Lightweight design in the commercial vehicle industry? For years, this question was unimportant to truck developers. They were more focused on the stability of the vehicle as it was expected to provide reliable service for decades. However, with a new focus on CO2 emissions, this view is changing and the industry is looking for a way to keep the vehicles stability, but while also incorporating a lightweight design.
