Description

Report Overview

Automotive final drive refers to the gearbox that transmits the engine torque to the wheels through the propeller shaft, providing propulsion for the vehicle. It is also called the differential gearbox. The final drive plays a vital role in transferring the engine output to the wheels, ensuring smooth propulsion of the vehicle. The final drive is mounted on the axle of the vehicle and is responsible for transferring the torque generated by the engine to the wheels, making them rotate. The final drive ratio is the ratio of the speed of rotation of the wheels to the speed of rotation of the propeller shaft.Automotive is a key driver of this industry.
