drive systems
Power transmission assemblies
Drive systems are the mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic components that transmit power to move machinery or vehicles.
In automobiles, the drive system includes the transmission, driveshaft, and differential that transfer engine power to the wheels—front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, or all-wheel drive.
Industrial drive systems power conveyor belts, pumps, and manufacturing equipment: The factory upgraded its drive systems to improve efficiency.
