Reducer

The RP-EPS is of a configuration whereby the motor output that assists steering force is reduced in two stages with a toothed belt and ball screw.
Double-angular contact bearings: small packaging and high rigidity
Floating structure: reducer elastic support for smooth steering feel on center and excellent communicability of road information
Ball screw design: reduction of friction level, torque fluctuation and NV by new deflector design with high precision self-manufacture technology based on experience of RD-EPS mass production
Redundant design MCU (motor control unit): improved assist continuity by redundant drive part of torque sensor and motor
