Solenoid Valves for Dual Clutch Technology
Solenoid Valves for DCT (Dual Clutch Technology)
Evolution of drivetrain transmission
A is made up of a combination of parts in a vehicle including:
Transmission
Wheels
Driveshaft
Axels
The drivetrain shifts the power from the
vehicle’s engine to the wheels
propelling the vehicle forward
Up until recently, the most
common transmissions in
automotive vehicles were
manual and automatic
Introducing
DCT
Dual Clutch Technology
came to prominence in
the 1980’s
DCT differs from manual and automatic
transmissions in that it has two transmissions –
one for even-numbered gears
and one for odd-numbered gears
DCT has several advantages over alternative transmissions:
Quicker
to shift
gears
Improved
driver
experience
Improved
fuel
efficiency
Solenoid valves
are a critical
Component of DCT
The solenoid valve is responsible for
controlling the fingers and synchronizers
for changing gears and controlling the
engagement and disengagement of the
clutch pack
