What is the lifespan of a dry dual-clutch?
1 Answers
The lifespan of a dry dual-clutch is generally around 350,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information about dry dual-clutches: 1. The dry dual-clutch was actually developed based on the technology of the 6-speed DQ250 wet dual-clutch, but with a simplified hydraulic system. 2. Since the dry dual-clutch saves on the related hydraulic system, it has advantages in terms of manufacturing cost, weight reduction, and space structure optimization. Additionally, due to the absence of hydraulic resistance, the transmission efficiency is higher, and fuel economy is better compared to wet dual-clutches. 3. The working principle of the dry dual-clutch is as follows: it consists of three similarly sized clutch discs installed coaxially in a stacked arrangement. The two outer clutch discs are connected to gears 1, 3, 5, 7 and gears 2, 4, 6, and reverse, respectively. The middle disc moves between them, engaging or disengaging with the two clutch discs to shift gears.
