Forged PM Bevel Gears
To create the ultimate solution it is
necessary to analyse and optimise
everywhere. GKN Automotive looks
holistically at the entire powertrain to
ensure our systems perform as a whole.
Building upon an established process
that has a proven track record for high
performance transmission races, GKN
Automotive has introduced Forged PM
differential bevel gears enabling the highest torque capacity in the
smallest package.
Benefits
> Highest torque capacity gears
> Superior material performance/durability
> Significant downsizing potential
Case Study
Offering a higher strength to weight ratio than commercially available wrought forged gears,
GKN Automotive is providing options to the market for improved power density with an
increased design safety factor, and/or space and weight savings at higher torque demand.
This forged PM technology is particularly beneficial for the next generation of high torque
electric drive systems which require increased durability due to regenerative braking and for
electric drive AWD power transfer units.
