FUNDAMENTALS OF MODERN VEHICLE TRANSMISSIONS
This seminar covers the latest transmission systems designed to achieve the most efficient engine operation. Discussion includes current designs, components and sub-systems, functionality, operation, and inter-relationships between components and systems. Using a manual transmission display, the instructor explains ratios and their function in the driveline. Automatic transmission design will illustrate automatic control and hydro-mechanic decision theory and implementation. “Hands-on” exercises using transmission models and components will supplement theoretical concepts. Mechatronics, toroidal transmission functions, and the future of the automatic transmission will also be discussed. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) systems will be the focus on the third day of this seminar. • Explain the development, operational aspects and design principles of passenger vehicle and light truck transmission systems, their major components and sub- systems • Describe the operational parameters and inter-relationships of each of the sub-systems • Apply basic design synthesis and analysis techniques for each of the major components and sub-systems • Compare and contrast ‘stepless’ to ‘stepped’ transmission technology • Identify and describe the function and operation of all major components and sub-systems by participating in hands-on demonstrations • Recognize the limitations, technological trends, and LEARNING OBJECTIVES By attending this seminar, you will be able to:
“I develop many of the chassis components that mate with the transmission. This course helped me to fully understand the components and functionality of the different types of transmissions. ”

potential new products under consideration • Summarize the direction of new passenger car transmission designs and systems
WHO SHOULD ATTEND This seminar is intended for anyone not familiar with the operational theories or functional principles of modern vehicle transmission systems.
