Komatsu's Innovative Viscous Fan Clutch Technology revolves around a mechanical wonder known as the viscous clutch. This device serves as a vital link between the engine and the radiator fan, containing a special fluid whose viscosity adjusts with the engine's temperature.
As the engine temperature rises, the fluid within the viscous clutch thickens, leading to the engagement of the clutch's two plates and subsequently increasing the speed of the radiator fan. This, in turn, enhances the airflow through the radiator, effectively cooling the engine. Conversely, when the engine cools down, the fluid becomes less viscous, causing the plates to disengage and reducing the fan's speed, thereby conserving valuable energy.
Komatsu has always maintained a proactive stance, consistently pushing the boundaries of innovation and honing its viscous fan clutch technology over time, further enhancing its efficiency and durability. Furthermore, the company has extended the utilization of this technology to a wider range of heavy equipment, encompassing mining trucks, bulldozers, and wheel loaders.
