What is the difference between Bosch Aerotwin and Icon wipers?
1 Answers
Bosch Aerotwin and Icon wipers differ in their origin and type. Different origins: The new Aerotwin is domestically produced in China, offering cost-effectiveness. The Icon uses European imported materials assembled domestically, featuring multiple patented technologies and having won several international awards. Different types: The new Aerotwin is a beam blade wiper. By utilizing thicker, wider, and more elastic steel, this beam blade design eliminates the need for the traditional bracket structure to distribute force. Instead, the force is directly applied to the steel strip, effectively dispersing concentrated pressure points. This allows the removal of the bracket while maintaining even pressure distribution across the rubber blade. The Icon is a conventional bracket wiper. Traditional bracket wipers use a two-stage bracket transmission system to convert single-point force from the wiper arm connection into multi-point force across the wiper. This evenly distributes the downward pressure from the wiper arm across the blade. The multi-point pressure on the blade acts on the internal steel strips, which then distribute the force more evenly to the rubber element.
