Variable Compression Ratio Technology

There are many ways to achieve a variation in TDC. The Gomecsys VCR system uses an eccentric between the crankpin and each conrod to achieve the desired variation in TDC.

The compression ratio can be varied by adjusting the position of this eccentric in TDC firing. 

In full load operation the eccentricity is inline with the conrod during peak combustion pressure, minimizing gear load and maximizing durability.

Gomecsys VCR technology offers many advantages

  • 8% CO₂ reduction in the WLTC at low cost
  • Zero impact on existing engine architecture
  • Fully variable actuation over the complete rpm range
  • High speed actuation (0,2 sec) – with low power consumption
  • True 4-stroke cycle with overexpansion
  • No additional friction
  • No gear noise
