Axial Vector Engine Corporation can trace its roots back to World War II, when Dr. Karl Hermann created the original linear power transmission concept. That initial design was eventually put to successful use by the US navy as a pneumatic drive in MK-46 torpedoes. The linear power design has proven successful in many applications because of its power and simplicity. Since the 1960’s, General Motors has been continuously using a linear power transmission for its air conditioning compressors.

The crucial difference between linear power and traditional standard drive is the position of the pistons and cylinders relative to the drive shaft. The twin piston design in a linear power transmission allows it to be smaller and lighter and produce significantly more torque on less fuel than standard drive engines of similar size. The linear power transmission also eliminates the need for a crank shaft and has less moving parts, which translates into less potential for wear and tear or repairs.

A perfect example of the superiority of linear power design is the Axial Vector Gas-Cam marine engine. It is a simple, four-stroke engine that runs on regular gas but is half the size and weight of comparable engines. The Gas-Cam produces 3.0 ft-lb of torque per HP versus 1.0 to 1.7 ft-lb per HP in conventional engines, which means the smaller engine is capable of doing more work than a conventional engine of the same horsepower. In addition to being more efficient, the engine saves money by creating enough power that a transmission is not necessary in most marine applications, a direct drive system with a clutch can do most jobs.

AVEC also has in development a large, 8 cylinder 7.2-liter “Work Horse” diesel /multi-fuel engine which produces 352HP and 1,140 ft lbs of torque. The engine produces up to 75% more horsepower than the current 7.2 liter Caterpillar engine already on the market while achieving greater fuel economy. Linear drive is clearly an old technology that has not been forgotten and is in the process of being perfected by Axial Vector Engine Corporation.
