Expertise in economical drive systems
DIWA Transmission for Buses
As of today, over 200 000 Voith DIWA transmissions have been supplied to transport operators and OEMs throughout the world. They have proven themselves in large cities with high traffic volumes such as Hong Kong, London, Rome. DIWA transmissions master the acceleration phase of a bus without jolts, allowing the driver to join the traffic flow swiftly straight from the bus stop. Gear-shifting comfort is optimised by a modern microprocessor control system that also provides excellent data storage facilities for vehicle diagnosis. The Voith Service Exchange (SX) program provides a fully rebuilt and warranted replacement bus transmission to bus operators at a fraction of the cost of a new unit. Voith SX transmissions are rebuilt to factory standards by the original manufacturer using genuine original parts. Each transmission is upgraded to the latest configuration and is thoroughly tested in Voith's state of the art facility in Croydon. A large stock of SX transmissions is held ready for issue.

Retarders for Coaches and Trucks
Hydrodynamic retarders work virtually wear-free. They do not lock, overheat or fade. This enables vehicles to reach higher average speeds while safety is increased; the service brakes are fully operational at all times and last considerably longer. The smooth braking of even the heaviest masses and the remarkable continuous braking power of the retarder make it an important safety factor for coaches and trucks. As of today, more than 500 000 Voith Retarders have been supplied. The investment pays for itself - depending on the operating conditions often within less than two years.

Hydrodamp Torsional Vibration Dampers
The employment of low-emission engines with high torques has sharply increased drive line vibrations. With the Voith Hydrodamp, a highly elastic torsional vibration damper, drive lines can be designed which produce less vibrations and noise. The Hydrodamp is an active contribution to the protection of our environment. It allows driving in the lower speed range which results in reduced fuel consumption and increased service life of the drive line itself.
