Retarder

,

A retarder is a specialized component found in the gearbox system of some commercial vehicles, such as heavy-duty trucks and buses. Its primary function is to provide additional braking force, complementing the primary vehicle brakes.

The retarder is typically integrated into the gearbox or transmission, utilizing the rotational energy of the driveline to generate a braking effect. This helps to reduce the workload on the vehicle’s main brakes, leading to improved brake system longevity and reduced maintenance requirements, especially when operating under heavy loads or on steep descents. Retarders can be hydraulic, electromagnetic, or engine-based, with each design offering distinct advantages in terms of performance, efficiency, and integration within the overall powertrain system.
