Order No. 1211 Clutch functional model A diaphragm spring clutch is mounted so that it can be turned on a stable tubular steel frame. When engaged, power is able to flow between the disk flywheel and the clutch lining. By pressing the lever it can be seen how the release bearing tilts the outer edge of the diaphragm spring around the tilted rings, thus releasing the clutch disk. The power flow is interrupted.
Order No. 1265 Cutaway model: Clutch with adjustment for wear As a result of the wear and tear on the driving disk, the position of the  diaphragm spring alters, which means that the pressure from the diaphragm spring on the ramp shaped setting rings drops. The locking bolt has the effect that the setting rings turn as a result of the tension of the springs. In this way, the clearance between the diaphragm spring and the pressure plate is compensated.
Order No. 1266 Cutaway model: Multi-disk clutch Design of a multi-disk clutch (without disengaging gear). This clutch has a number of internal and external disks in its basket, which means that a large torque can be transmitted despite a small diameter. The pressing force of the disks results from a number of helical springs.	Order No. 1139 Viscous clutch - all externally toothed discs are fixed to the housing - all internally toothed discs are fixed to the driving shaft - power transmission is attained via the shearing effect of the silicone fluid between the slots and the holes in the discs (in the cutaway model there is no silicone fluid)

Order No. 1285 Clutch actuator An electric motor drives a segment of a worm wheel via a worm. The worm wheel presses the release pin forwards, thus separating the flow of power in the clutch. The large tensioning forces to separate the clutch are taken over by a fine spring, which means that the electric motor only supplies the torque to overcome the friction. A button can be used to turn the electric motor and to demonstrate the release process. The installed pane of plexiglas means that everything can be seen easily.
Order No. 1255 Cutaway model: Daimler Benz 6-gear transmission This new construction is an equal-axle three-shaft transmission with 6 forward and one synchronised reverse gear. The shift elements are distributed on 2 shafts. Operation of the clutch is done automatically via central disengaging gear. The transmission can easily be turned neutral. All the gears can be shifted and the flow of force shown.
Order No. 1282 Automatic sequential six-gear transmission (DB) The automated, sequential six-gear transmission developed from the classical six-gear manual transmission is controlled by the engine management. With the help of a hydraulic piston, 2 gears can be shifted on each shift level. To change to another shift level, a gate sleeve, which had been able to rotate loosely up to then, is arrested by a second hydraulic piston. In this way, the old gear is firstly removed and then the selector shaft turned onto a different shift level by a pin in the arrested gate sleeve when the inlet selector shaft is displaced by the first hydraulic piston. Now, shifting into the next gear is possible. The installation of a gearshift rod with a button and a mechanical clamping lever means that all the gears can be shifted and the function of the hydraulic controls demonstrated. The following are cut away: transmission housing front and back, hydraulic pump with electric engine, hydraulic unit and the hydraulic pressure accumulator.
Order No. 1238 SMART gearbox The new construction from the firm of GRETAG is a mechanical shift gear with 6 forward and one reverse gear. The shifting of the gearbox is done by an electric motor via a gear wheel transmission onto a gear selector drum. The slide shoes of the gearshift rods engage into the groove tracks of the gear selector drum. For the differential, 2 differing transmission ratios can be shifted, which means that 6 forward gears result from the 3 forward gears of the main shaft. In shifting, an automatic clutch actuator takes over the clutch engagement and de-clutching. The gearbox is supplied as a semi-automatic or fully automatic gearbox. All the gears can be shifted by turning the electric motor. The function of the differential is also easily visible.
