JCL Hydraulic Pedal

Our hydraulic pedal project was born out of our desire to create a  
felt as close as possible to the real driving.

-Study and development -
Developed in CAD by our young trainee in mechatronic engineering school,
this new pedal set is the culmination of three months of study.
We were particularly interested in the ergonomic adjustment of the start/end stops.
of gas pedal and clutch travel as well as adjustment of spring preload.
All these adjustments are done manually without any special tools or disassembly.
The hydraulic brake supports pedal pressures ranging from 65 to 110 kg. The crushing force is adjustable to
using compression rings made of elastomers of different hardness.
The instrumentation necessary for the acquisition of the hydraulic pressure and displacements was entrusted to our
electronics designer. After the in-house realization of many 3D printing models,
the manufacture of a first prototype required 1 month of additional work and no less than
8 months of tests cumulated both during our presentations and in the sports stable of one of our customers.
We also had the chance to benefit from the expertise of the young driver Jérémy SARHY thanks to whom
our product is today extremely successful in terms of realism.

-Quality materials-
The frame of each pedal is made of folded stainless steel sheet, previously laser cut.
The bead-blasted finish of these parts ensures a uniform and durable appearance.
The pedal levers and the stop adjustment mechanisms are machined in numerical control.
in 6061 aerospace aluminum.
The colored surface anodizing adds a professional look to these parts while preserving them from oxidation.
Most of the screws and bolts are also made of stainless steel.
The hydraulic brake transmitters and receivers are supplied by a famous competition brake manufacturer.
The USB acquisition card for the pedal sensors is manufactured by Leo Bodnar.

-Quality of assembly-
Just like our frames, the assembly of each pedal is carried out by us in our premises and benefits from the quality
and JCL Simulators expertise.
