The transmission and
steering components manufacturer make up the second largest product segment in
the Indian auto components industry.
The replacement market
in sub-segments such as clutches is likely to grow due to the rise in traffic
density and lack of proper road infrastructure. For transmission parts manufacturers’ competition is expected to
intensify in sub-segments including gears and clutches, especially with the
entry of global players.
A transmission has a
lot of parts to it. All the parts of a transmission are connected to each other
and work together to deliver torque to the wheels.
Parts of a Transmission
Transmission pump - It is located between the torque converter and
the planetary gear set, the pump is what draws transmission fluid in and
pressurizes it for the torque converter and transmission.
Planetary gear set –
The planetary gear set consists of a sun gear, planet gears, and a ring gear,
and is responsible for all of the gear ratios that your car uses.
Torque converter – The
torque converter is a hydraulic fluid coupling that connects the engine to the
transmission.
Clutches & Bands –
Clutches and bands are used to help the transmission shift gears.
Sensors – Sensors are
the control units of the transmission, and calculate the speed of the engine
and wheels in order to decide which gear should be used.
Transmission valve body
is a hydraulic control centre that regulates incoming transmission fluid and
uses it to run a network of spring loaded valves, check balls, and servo
pistons.
Transmission fluid
(ATF) – The automatic transmission fluid is CRUCIAL not only provides fluid
pressure but it also has lubricating and cooling capabilities to prevent
overheating.
