What is DTS-i and DTS-Si Technology ?

DTS-i & DTS-si Technology used in Bajaj Auto . First it is introduced in Pulser 150 & 180 in 2003.

DTS-i stands for Digital Twin Spark Plug Ignition. As its name indicate that it contain two spark plug & controlled by digital microprocessor

The Benefit of using two spark plug is better burning of the air fuel mixture. The result is ,Engine deliver better fuel efficiency & power.

DTS-Si stands for Digital Twin Spark-Swirl Induction . It also have two spark plugs.But the Difference between DTS-i & DTS-Si is fuel flowing technique . In this type of engine position of inlet & outlet ports are offset. It create turbulence of the air-fuel mixture inside the engine. The swirl flow make better combustion in cylinder. Better combustion means more efficent & powerful engine.

What is Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) ?

Today we are talking about How Anti-Lock Brakes Work . Now a days mostly cars have ABS system. ABS is a life saving technology which allows driver to heavy breaking with in-control steering.  
By preventing the wheels from locking, it enables the driver to maintain steering control and to stop in the shortest possible distance under most conditions.

ABS system consist following parts -

1. wheel speed sensors
2. Brake calipers
3. hydraulic motor
4. pressure release valve
5. Control module

Working :-

When brakes are applied this pressurises a hydraulic system which causes the brake pads to close against the discs which causes the car to slow down. If the ABS system detects that one wheel is slowing down more rapidly than the rest (a symptom of wheel-lock) it automatically reduces the brake pressure on this wheel by opening a pressure release valve in the hydraulic system. It also has the ability to build the pressure back up via the hydraulic motor.
