Abstract
In the traditional manually operated vehicle transmissions and in their modern automated versions, synchronizers are widely used to equalize gear speeds while shifting. For their proper functioning, the sliding friction between the cones must be carefully controlled. The macroscopic frictional characteristics of complete synchronizers were extensively studied on test benches at the Institute of Machine Elements, Engineering Design and Tribology at the University of Hannover, Germany, using SpiraxTM MA80W oil (tribosystem A) and ATF Dexron IID oil (tribosystem B). From these tests, conclusions were drawn on the contribution of boundary friction. Direct measurements required focusing on the microscopic real areas of contact with direct interaction of the surfaces. A combination of microscratch-testing and atomic force microscopy at the Institute of Microtechnology of the University of Hannover allowed correlation of the macroscopic measurements to microscopic surface properties.
