Seminar Overview: Manual Transmissions (MT) maintain a large percentage of the global transmission marketplace, and for India they are certainly a popular choice by consumers. Whether it is the benefits in fuel economy, lower costs of implementation, or driver control, manual transmissions are a critical piece of the OEM design consideration for a vehicle and require an in depth understanding to implement successfully in a design platform. In this two-day educational course, a team of industry experts from their respective fields will provide detailed technical presentations on manual transmission functionality and design considerations. A variety of inner components will be highlighted including but not limited to hardware designs, synchronizer mechanisms (synchromesh), seals, bearings, lubricants and additives. In addition, real-world case studies are used to provide examples of successful MT implementations. The course concludes with an industry roundtable discussion focusing on the trends and future directions of manual transmission technology. An added feature of this event is a collection of technology displays to provide further MT understanding and user-experience data. In addition, the registration fee includes lunch and refreshments both days along with a special networking reception designed to provide ample opportunity to interact with transmission experts and resolve questions. Learning Objectives: By attending this course, you will be able to: Identify the benefits of MTs to the end user and the vehicle manufacturer Explain the differences in MT designs (unsynchronized & synchronized) Describe the main components within a MT and their functions/benefits; in particular, synchronizer mechanisms (synchromesh), bearings, seals, lubricants and additives Highlight the implications of each component to the success of the MT design and usage Discuss emerging trends in manual transmission designs as they relate to future OEM strategies Who Should Attend: Targeted to India engineering managers, chemical and design engineers as well as development engineers from OEM and upper Tier suppliers. The official language for presentations will be in English. Simultaneous translation will be provided. Prerequisites: Course attendees should have a basic understanding of MT functionality and a university degree in engineering or technical equivalent.
