What are the advantages of a Torsen differential?
1 Answers
Advantages are as follows: 1. Advantage one: The Torsen differential achieves constant and continuous torque control management. It operates continuously without any time delay, yet it does not interfere with the adjustment of total torque output, thus eliminating any torque loss. Compared to traction control and vehicle stability control systems, it offers greater superiority. Since it lacks the multi-plate clutches found in traditional self-locking differentials, there is no wear and tear, making it maintenance-free. The purely mechanical LSD boasts excellent reliability. 2. Advantage two: The Torsen differential can be matched with any transmission or transfer case and is compatible with other vehicle safety control systems such as ABS, TCS (Traction Control Systems), and SCS (Stability Control Systems). The Torsen differential is a purely mechanical structure that activates the moment a wheel begins to slip, featuring a linear locking characteristic. 3. Advantage three: The Torsen limited-slip differential is a fully automatic, purely mechanical limited-slip differential that is highly reliable, durable, and quick to respond. From certain perspectives, it represents a very balanced design. It can respond to torque differences between drive wheels in a very short time, adjusting torque output to address wheel differential issues. Moreover, its locking characteristic is highly linear and can be adjusted over a relatively wide torque range without being limited by the structural space of the differential housing, thus maximizing its effectiveness.
