Does an AT Transmission Have Clutch Plates?
1 Answers
AT transmissions do have clutches. Here is some relevant information about AT transmissions: 1. AT transmissions typically refer to automatic transmissions, which are gear-shifting devices that can automatically change gears based on the vehicle's speed and engine RPM, as opposed to manual transmissions. 2. AT transmissions offer smooth performance. The torque converter can automatically and continuously adjust the torque ratio and transmission ratio within a certain range, although the torque multiplication factor is not large, and the gear range is not very wide. However, during vehicle startup or when driving on poor road conditions, the lock-up clutch can be disengaged to allow the torque converter to function, fully utilizing the hydraulic transmission's ability to automatically adapt to drastic changes in driving resistance.
