Variator
Taking the principles of traction drive as a means by which to transmit power through a lubricating medium, Torotrak’s technology is configured into a variable drive device known as a variator. Torotrak has chosen to use the full-toroidal variator layout as this represents the most stable and simple geometry for practical application. This geometry is based on the solid and long-founded principles of the rolling contact of a conventional ball bearing arrangement.
