Gearbox without gear

Compared to traditional transmissions it is reported that the Controlled Rotation System (CRS) has a simple design, is maintenance free, doesn't require lubricants and saves fuel because it lacks friction between the gears.

The system – which its inventors expect to change the automotive industry on a worldwide scale – has no gear wheels, but uses two discs which are powered by a strong belt. With the help of a digital operated hydraulic oil pump and so called slide units the diameter of the discs is increased and decreased, causing acceleration and deceleration, thus providing a different gear.

The new transmission can be applied in cars, but also in windmills, ships, motorbikes or all kinds of machines.
