Research on dual-clutch transmissions in agricultural tractors is on the rise. Dual-clutch transmissions provide a smooth driving experience and easy operation compared to manual transmissions, as they eliminate power interruptions. Accordingly, there is ongoing research to improve the conventional synchronizer pre-selection method. The study introduces a new control strategy to enhance shifting quality by focusing on shift force and timing. Specifically, the goal is to optimize the impact of pre-selection-induced shock and delayed shift time, minimizing discomfort for the driver. According to the experimental results, it was determined that factors influencing the impact of preselect engagement on gear shift shock were absent, while factors capable of affecting shift time were identified in the form of shift force. However, it was concluded that optimizing shift force and shift timing based on the number of shifts can enhance the quality of gear shifting. Even during preselect disengagement, the factor influencing gear shift shock was identified as the shift timing, with no discernible factor affecting shift time. Nevertheless, it was judged that optimizing shift force and shift timing based on the number of shifts can lead to an improvement in gear shifting quality. In conclusion, the control strategy determined through the parameter study is expected to improve the shifting quality of tractors equipped with dual-clutch transmission. These findings have the potential to support efficient and convenient tractor operation in the agricultural sector. © 2024 by the authors.
