BMW Motorrad ne ek naya feature launch kiya hai jo ki manual clutch operation ki zarurat ko khatam karta hai aur dono modes of functioning offer karta hai. Is system ka naam hai Automated Shift Assistant (ASA). ASA system ko brand ke boxer engine bikes par apply kiya gaya hai. Ye Honda ke DCT gearbox ke jaise kaam karta hai.
BMW Motorrad ek brand hai jo apne motorcycles ki technology ko naye tareeke se badalne ka kaam kar raha hai aur hamesha naye tech ko introduce karne ke liye jaana jaata hai. Ab unhone traditional method ko gear shift karne ka badal diya hai apne latest Automated Shift Assistant (ASA) ke saath. Ye naya feature riders ko manual aur fully automatic transmissions ka suvidha deta hai. Ye feature pehle Honda Africa Twin DCT jaise models mein dekha gaya tha, jo manual clutch operation ki zarurat ko khatam karta hai.
Automated Shift Assistant ek practical design ko laata hai jo do electromechanical actuators ko shaamil karta hai jo six-speed transmission ke clutch aur gearshift functions ko automate karte hain. Ye conventional shift assistants se kaafi alag hai, jo clutch lever ka manual operation khatam karta hai. Is technology ke implement hone se shuru karna, rukna, aur manuevring jaise tasks aasaan ho jaayenge, brand ke mutabiq. Actuators clutch slip ko nirdhaarit karte hain, gear changes ke dauraan clutch ko engage karte hain, aur stops ke dauraan ise disengage karte hain.
Ek gearshift lever sensor rider ke shift commands ko control unit tak pahunchata hai, jo conventional foot-operated gearshift lever ke zariye actuate hota hai. Additional sensors transmission input shaft ki revolutions aur clutch position ko monitor karte hain, aur ye data Transmission Control Unit (TCU) ko bhejte hain. TCU, engine control unit ke saath gehri tarah se integrate hokar, clutch operation, shift actuation, aur status ka management karta hai.
Is system mein do alag modes of operation hai: D aur M. D mode mein, system gear changes ko swaayam niyantrit karta hai, ek auto mode ki tarah. Vahi, M mode mein, riders conventional foot-operated gear lever ka istemaal karke gear shifts par control rakhte hain. Aur agar bike M mode mein hai aur stalling ka khatra uthta hai, to system automatic downshift karta hai aise ghatnaon ko rokne ke liye.
Brand ne ye nahi bataya hai ki kaun se models mein ASA function incorporate kiya jayega; boxer engine ka zikr karna ye dikhata hai ki ASA system BMW ke R line ke adventure bikes, retro roadsters, aur cruisers par uplabdh hoga. Iska Bharat mein introduce hone ka timeframe abhi anishchit hai.
