Drivers are already used to the sixth gear, and the development continues. There are plans afoot for an automatic gearbox for a 9-gear transmission system. The reason is obvious, since it allows the car to be driven at optimal speeds for longer intervals and that saves fuel. Together with the continuing pressure to optimize, high volume gear production must become faster and cheaper. The EMAG Group has demonstrated their solution: the VLC 200 H Vertical Hobbing Machine that adds a new dimension to productivity levels.
