CLUTCH
WEAR ADJUSTMENT INDICATOR
(PATENT
PENDING)
Brief
Description
A
device to automatically indicate when the clutch needs
wear adjustment, An inductive electrical 5 Sensor
is screwed on the release bearing cage. As the gap
between the sensing surface and the top face of the
housing falls beyond a predetermined limit, the sensor
generates a signal which lights a bulb or horn in
the driver cabin to tell him that the wear on the
clutch disc needs to be readjusted.
Advantage
Helps
providing a technical solution to indicate that the
wear on the disc has reached a pre-determined level
and the clutch has to be readjusted back to its original
position.

DAMP HIGH TORQUE DISC - PDHT ™
(REPLACES VCT- SOFT- RATE DAMPERS & LTD CLUTCH
DISC)
During
the last decade or so operating range of Heavy Duty
Trucks and Trailers has changed dramatically, while
the Engine Horse Power has continued to be increased
year over year, the Max, Torque Speeds have reduced
from -1500 RPIA to 1050 -1200 RPM i.e., Current Generation
Trucks have more pulling power and higher Torque Capacity
- overall more punch. This
applies to almost 90% of current Truck production.
Engine
cycles of Low RPM Engines are close to Natural Frequency
of the Power Train ie: while operating close to the
Resonance levels: High Oscillation Attenuation is
observed in the Drive lines which unless absorbed/arrested
can cause severe vibration and in turn high wear and
tear of Drive line components.
PDHT™
Disc is an efficient solution for their problems.
It absorbs the low end cycles and Torsional vibrations
of the engine up to 4 twist angle after which it transmits
the main Engine Torque in the range of 2250ft. lbs
in the next 10 of twist i.e. a total + 14 (11 in case
of LTD design)
