Differential Cases

 

Differential cases play a critical role in the automotive industry, serving as essential components within a vehicle's drivetrain system. These cases are typically found in the rear axle and are responsible for distributing power from the engine to the wheels while allowing them to rotate at different speeds, especially during turns.

Full Power, maximum safety

Innovation has bred more efficient engines which puts increasing demand on the associated parts to perform faultlessly for extended periods of time.

MAT Foundry Group’s transmission components, such as differential cases, are specially cast and machined to meet the high quality standards and tolerances that OEMs require.

We have the capability and knowhow to cast, machine and assemble differential cases within the MAT Foundry Group.

Lanchster Balancing System

The Lanchester balancing system, named after its inventor Frederick Lanchester, is a mechanical engineering concept used to reduce vibrations and improve the smoothness of rotating machinery, particularly in engines. This system employs two rotating masses, often referred to as "balance shafts," which rotate at twice the speed of the engine's crankshaft and in opposite directions.
