What is AMT transmission?
1 Answers
AMT is the abbreviation for Automated Manual Transmission, with its full name being Automated Mechanical Transmission. There are four common types of automotive automatic transmissions: Hydraulic Automatic Transmission (abbreviated as AT), Continuously Variable Transmission (abbreviated as CVT), Automated Mechanical Transmission (abbreviated as AMT), and Dual-Clutch Transmission (abbreviated as DCT). Below is an introduction to AMT transmission: 1. The Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) can determine the optimal gear based on parameters such as vehicle speed, throttle position, and driver commands. It automates the operations traditionally performed by the driver, including clutch engagement and disengagement, shifting gears via the gear lever, and synchronizing engine throttle adjustments, ultimately achieving automated gear shifting. 2. AMT retains the basic structure of a conventional manual transmission, offering advantages such as high transmission efficiency, compact design, low cost, ease of manufacturing, reliability, and user-friendly operation.
