Punch Powertrain,based in Belgium,has recently taken over the ZF dividion responsible for continously variable transmissions (CVTs) and has opened the first independent automatic transmission factory in China. The new factory covers a total of 6,188sq m and is being built in Nanjing,the capital of East China's Jiangsu Province. The new plant is expected to begin production in May 2008 with a production capacity of 100,000 transmissions a year.
Punch Powertrain manufactures and supplies CVT and hybrid powertrains and is the first foreign CVT producer to build an assembly plant in company already has a plant in Belgium with an annual production capacity of 80,000 transmission units.
The CVT technology is acknowledged as a significant innovation in the automotive technology offers an impressive driveability, combined with higher comfort, high fuel economy and low rmore, the CVT of Punch Powertrain is fully ready to meet the requirements of the new EURO V norms.
Punch Powertrain's advanced CVT transmissions offer additional software functions including OBDII and various driving strategies including a warm-up mode after a cold start and up and down hill onal features like manual mode, sport mode , economy mode or snow mode can also be implemented easily into the very compact CVT transmission.
There are currently fewer than 10 CVT models in the Chinese market; they include the Honda Fit, Nissan Teana, Chery Qiyun and the FAW Haima ed with the manual transmissions and the automatic transmissions of today,the advanced CVT technology of Punch Powertrain is only as expensive as a six-speed automatic transmission.
If you would like to find out more about this new technology, visit Punch Powertrain at the Beijing Auto China 2008 fair from 20 April to 28 April 2008.
瑞士邦奇動力有限公司（Punch Powertrain,以下簡稱“邦奇動力”）于近日接管了全球變速器制造巨頭采埃孚（ZF）的無級變速器產(chǎn)品，并在中國全額投資建立了第一家外商獨資的自動變速箱制造廠。新工廠位于中國東部活分江蘇省的省會南京，占地面積6,188平方米，計劃于2008年8月開始生產(chǎn)變速器產(chǎn)品，年產(chǎn)量可達(dá)10萬臺。
作為無級變速器和混合動力車傳動系統(tǒng)的供應(yīng)商，邦奇動力是首家在中國投資建立總裝廠的國外無級變速器公司。該公司在比利時也建有變速器生產(chǎn)廠家，其年產(chǎn)量為8萬臺。
無級變速器技術(shù)被認(rèn)為是汽車工業(yè)發(fā)展中的一項重大創(chuàng)新，它具有提高汽車動力效能，提升駕駛舒適度，增加駕駛樂趣和有效節(jié)能減排等諸多優(yōu)點。而且，邦奇公司推出的無級變速器還可完全滿足新歐V排放標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
邦奇動力先進的無級變速器產(chǎn)品還提供了包括OBDII在內(nèi)的軟件功能和包括冷起動后加熱模式、上下坡識別等在內(nèi)的多種駕駛策略。此外，它不但結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊，還同時具有手動模式、運動模式、經(jīng)濟模式和雪路模式等多種可供選擇的附加功能。
中國汽車市場上現(xiàn)有不到十款車型中安裝有無級變速器，包括本田飛度，日產(chǎn)騏達(dá)，奇瑞旗云和一汽海馬系列。與現(xiàn)行的手動變速器及自動變速器相比，邦奇動力推出的無級變速器的價格卻僅與六擋手動變速器相當(dāng)。
邦奇動力的相關(guān)產(chǎn)品將于2008年4月20日至28日在北京車展展出，如果想要了解更多 邦奇動力新技術(shù)信息，歡迎屆時蒞臨指導(dǎo)。
