2. SATIC (SELF ADJUSTING TECHNOLOGY WITH
INTEGRATED CASSETTE)

1) System Description

▶ Function
▶ Operation
On the conventional clutch, the pedal force
tends to increase in proportion to the degree
of disc run-out. However, the SATIC clutch
has the adjusting function which activates the
cassette system inserted to the clutch cover
to maintain a constant pedal force and
clearance when the disc runs out. (Unlike SAT
type, SATIC type does not need SST for
clutch cover removal.)
Diaphragm spring rotates the adjusting
equipment as clutch disc is wearing and so,
pressure plate is pushed to clutch disc side at
the amount of wear.
