  • Publication number: 20150136559
    Abstract: A torque transfer device for a motor vehicle includes a clutch for transferring torque between first and second shafts. An electromagnetic actuator includes an axially moveable armature for applying an application force to the clutch. An actuator control system includes a force sensor positioned within a clutch actuation force load path and is operable to output a signal indicative of a force applied to the clutch. The control system includes a controller operable to control the electromagnetic actuator to vary the force applied to the clutch based on the force sensor signal. As an option, the actuator control system can include a position sensor operable to output a signal indicative of a position of the armature. The control system determines a target torque to be transferred by the clutch and a target armature position based on a previously determined clutch torque vs. armature position relationship.
