Abstract

Abstract: Currently, the world of transmission is dominated in Europe by manual gearboxes and in the USA and Japan by automatic gearboxes. Both types of gearboxes have specific advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of a manual gearbox are, for example, high degree of efficiency and robust and sporty characteristic. The advantages of an automatic gearbox are, for example, a high level of comfort, above all in gear changes, as there is no interruption in tractive power.

Keywords: Direct Shift Gearbox, multi-plate clutch, direct selection, jolt-free gear changes.
