The developed powershift clutch system is electro mechanically actuated as required by using a ball ramp mechanism to transform rotational movement into axial load of the disc set. The integrated torque sensor allows control of the clutchs friction torque to realize start-up procedures or continuous slipping operations. By avoiding hydraulics as actuating media and so double energy conversion, it is predestinated for application in electro mobility applications. The developed system is the result of a joint project between the BMW AG, Kirstein GmbH Technische Systeme and the FZG.
