NTN-SNR TAKES WHEEL AND TRANSMISSION BEARINGS INTO THE NEW GENERATION WITH A MORE COMPACT DESIGN

Hybrid and electric vehicles are bringing a new set of architectural constraints to running gear designs. As electric vehicles continue gaining traction in the automotive market, car manufacturers are under greater pressure to up their game and overcome these new challenges. Heavier axles are a prime example. At the same time, the axial dimensions of electric motors and reduction gearboxes are also rising. Manufacturers may respond to such changes by resizing the wheel/CVJ assembly, but this approach has the side-effect of reducing the vehicle's steering angle.
