The global automotive flywheel market size was valued at USD 7.12 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $10.4 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 3.6% during the forecast period. The flywheel in an automobile is used for the transmission of power produced by the engine to the propeller shaft or the driving shaft of the automobile. Flywheels are typically made up of steel. Flywheel resists the changes in rotational speed by moment of inertia. Flywheel also serves as the mounting-surface of the clutch assembly, while it also acts as a heat sink for the dissipation of heat from the pressure plate and disc. At the time of engagement i.e the contact between the clutch and the flywheel, a disc is clamped between the flywheel and pressure plate, that results in power transfer from the engine to the transmission.
The global automotive flywheel market has seen a remarkable growth. The rising production of vehicles globally in the past few years has boosted the flywheel market significantly. The demand for commercial vehicles is extensively driven by growing industrialization and growing service sectors. Rising demand for different factors such as comfort, aesthetics & safety, and continuous improvement in technology are responsible for the expansion of the automotive flywheel market. For enhancement of comfort factors, i.e. the reduction of the vibration produced within the transmission assembly, the manufacturers have developed different technologies.
Competition amongst flywheel manufacturers is a key factor responsible for the growth of the flywheel market as manufacturers constantly focus on developing different features to differentiate their products and match the weight, speed and transmission requirements of automotive manufacturers. Rising penetration of semi-automatic transmission systems globally such as AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) and DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission in the commercial and passenger vehicles segments is likely to drive the flywheel market during the forecast period.
The prominent players in the global automotive flywheel market market include
January 2024
Taking advantage of the great success achieved by the Ninja 250, Ninja 300, and Ninja 400 models, the long-awaited Ninja 500 and Ninja 500 SE have joined the lively, lightweight, sporty segment, which is expected to attract much attention. Other fine touches include a light flywheel, a Denso stick-type ignition coil, a long-reach spark plug, and an optimized compression ratio, which work together to improve efficiency, performance, and cooling ability while minimizing electrical interference. In terms of design innovation, this engine also comes with a slimmer balancer shaft, different from previous engines, and an assist slipper clutch that gives a light lever feel and confidence for all users.
These bikes boast new engine chassis that are more agile than ever before yet do not compromise on firmness. In addition, many features are designed with riders' needs at heart, such as a laid-back riding position, LED headlights and seamless smartphone connectivity.
The powerplant of the Ninja 500 has been heavily revised so as to provide more thrust across the rev range compared to its predecessor model – The Ninja four hundred cc-based unit (stroke up bore increased). Displacement now stands at four fifty-one cubic centimeters with seventy points zero millimeters x fifty-eight point six mm bore & stroke measurements; not only does that mean lots of power packed into a small space frame, but it also greatly contributes toward making the overall bike slim enough for easy ground reach by feet when the rider is seated.
In order to achieve this additional output capacity downdraft intake system has been used where air flows directly down into cylinders, thereby filling them better, especially during high rpm operation. For best results, the maximum noiseless suction effect was ensured through the employment of a tall design five point eight liters air box while various left-right intake funnel heights were selected so as to smooth out torque response, henceforth realizing a wider power band across RPMs; fuel injectors being in close proximity from the intake ports ensure quick burn speed thus linear throttle feedback.
