In Jaltest Tools, we have been working to create the ideal kit of special tools to disassemble and assemble the range synchroniser ring of an i-Shift AT and VT gearbox in an efficient way and following the recommendations of the manufacturer.

Within Jaltest Tools, the range of products designed to supply the workshop with professional equipment, you can find the new jump starters JT3013 and JT3014 for 12V and 24V.

In a viscous clutch, the power transmission is performed thanks to the viscous fluid located inside the clutch frame.

In new Euro 6 vehicles, the requirements regarding consumption and emissions have become increasingly strict. In relation to the cooling system, it is utterly important to reduce the time of clutch disengagement to deactivate the fan in those conditions in which it is not necessary to cool the engine.

The viscous clutch is the mechanism in charge of the power transmission between the vehicle engine and the fan of the cooling system. In most modern clutch designs, which are electronically controlled, apart from transmitting the movement to the fan, the clutch is also capable of controlling its speed at any time.

The fan is a fundamental element in the cooling system of a vehicle.

In some references of viscous clutch shafts, it is essential to machine threaded holes to ensure the correct assembling of the clutch to the vehicle.

The viscous clutch is a fundamental element of the cooling system in commercial vehicles. This component often undergoes great workloads to face the demanding cooling requirements of this type of vehicles.

As we have demonstrated in previous posts, the shaft of an electromagnetic viscous clutch is responsible for withstanding the control coil and the clutch frame where the fan is assembled, as well as connecting both the clutch and the vehicle. That is why the manufacturing tolerances of this component are very low.

The activation of this clutch is performed by a bimetal, in other words, by two assembled alloys with different expansion coefficients.
