until now, the gas exchange of gasoline engines has always been associated with pumping losses. The reason is that the throttle body has to be closed for
part load operation. univalve fulfils engine designers’ longstanding goal of achieving adjust
-ment of cylinder filling to meet changing operating conditions by means of variable valve timing.
univalve has a compact, straightforward design. The uncompromising use of roller contacts througout the system offers a high speed capability with low mechanical losses. reduced parasitic losses and pumping work lead to favorable fuel consumption.
An electrical actuator provides precise and quick valve control from full valve lift down to zero valve lift. univalve delivers outstanding fuel economy, dynamics and power.
