previous chapter Transmissions and Drivetrain Design

next chapter The Clutch

There are also other principles, such as displaceable gear wheels. The gearshift system with sliding sleeve as described here is used in modern commercial vehicle transmissions. For more esoteric or historical solutions, the reader is referred to the specialist literature on transmissions [1].

Automated manual transmissions are also called clutchless manual transmissions to indicate that their internal mechanisms still resemble conventional manually operated spur gear systems and to differentiate the automated manual transmissions from the fully automatic versions. Clutchless here means that there is no clutch pedal anymore to be operated by the driver. Technically the AMT still needs and still has a clutch.
