Transmission gear reduction video…
September 4th, 2009
Artist Arthur Ganson’s creation called “Machine with Concrete” provides a beautiful illustration of the power of a transmission. Should you input only 1 lb-ft of torque, the other end could deliver 244 quintillion lb-ft.
Ganson’s piece demonstrates the unbelievable power which can be generated through simple gear reduction. It uses an electric [...]
Part-4: CVT transmissions- continuously variable transmission
June 12th, 2009
Another transmission article on another version of the CVT transmission — the toroidal CVT system — replaces the belts and pulleys with discs and power rollers.

April 23rd, 2009
It is an old mechanics joke. When a potential customer calls and says “my car stopped moving I think it is the automatic transmission, it is leaking transmission fluid, how much will it cost”? What can you say if you can’t examine the car? How can you convince your potential client to have the car [...]
