Vibrations that occur in the drivetrain of a vehicle can be heard as low engine-speed rattle and droning. To counteract this, LuK developed the dual mass flywheel (DMF) and made it production-ready back in 1985. It reduces vibrations in the drivetrain and delivers smooth operation.
A conventional flywheel consists of a single solid part. A dual mass flywheel, on the other hand, consists of two masses mounted so they can rotate against each other. Integrated into the DMF is a spring and damper systems that almost completely absorbs the torsional vibration from the engine. This way, the DMF meets increasing demands from car owners for driving comfort.
Features & Benefits:
Manufactured to OE specifications
Reduces noise and vibration from the drivetrain
Increases driving comfort by reducing load on crankshaft and transmission
Allows driving at low engine speeds, which reduces fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
