The
ATS Five Star™ is a revolutionary Torque
Converter that utilizes all of the technologies of a traditional
torque converter plus the innovative ATS Viskus Clutch Drive.
The ATS Viskus Clutch Drive is the heart of the ATS Five Star™
torque converter.
The
ATS Viskus Clutch Drive, along with the fluid-coupling portion
of the torque converter, share in the increase of transfer
of power through the torque converter. Unlike other torque
converters relying on fluid transfer from the impeller to
the turbine via the stator, the Five Star™ utilizes
ATS Viskus Clutch Drive technology that transfers rotational
energy from the engine to the transmission. When the Torque
Converter Clutch is commanded to come on, the 5 clutch plates
provide a 100% mechanical engagement ensuring no plate slippage
during lockup, even at power levels in excess of 2000 foot
pounds of torque!
Some fo the features of the Five Star™ Torque
Converter are:
Full
