The Dynamic Controllable Clutch (DCC) is an electromechanical clutch system that enables precise, on-demand torque transfer.
Engineered to optimize efficiency, performance, and drivability, the DCC delivers seamless engagement and disengagement—reducing energy loss and improving system response across various vehicle applications.
Key Benefits:
- Enables smooth, rapid torque transfer that improves shift quality and performance.
- Reduces parasitic losses to enhance overall system efficiency.
- Provides on-demand actuation for precise torque control.
- Supports compact, lightweight designs to reduce overall vehicular mass.
- Easy to calibrate
- Consistent engagements
- Designed for low-drag operation that reduces energy consumption in electrified propulsion.
- Supports seamless transitions between gear shifts and driving modes.
Applications:
- Shifting Elements
- Driveline Disconnects
- Engine Disconnect
