Fallbrook Technologies is focused on improving the performance and flexibility of transmissions for engine and human-powered devices. Fallbrook's NuVinci technology is a traction-based CVT (continuously variable transmission) that is scalable and highly adaptable. It controls relationships of speed and torque and is applicable to mechanical devices that have a transmission or can benefit from speed or torque variation. NuVinci technology is a class of CVT having planetary characteristics and can also be configured as an infinitely variable transmission (IVT). An IVT can be shifted seamlessly from forward through zero output to reverse and back. The NuVinci transmission uses a set of rotating balls between the input and output components of a transmission. Tilting the balls changes contact diameters and varies the speed ratio. Compared to other current transmission technologies, the NuVinci technology is less complex, scales and packages more easily, costs less to manufacture, and facilitates achieving optimum performance.
