Camshaft chikamu cheinjini yepiston. Basa rayo nderekudzora kuvhurwa nekuvhara kwevharuvhu. Kunyangwe camshaft ichitenderera nehafu yespeed yecrankshaft muinjini ine mastroke mana (camshaft inotenderera nespeed imwechete necrankshaft muinjini ine mastroke maviri), camshaft inowanzo tenderera nespeed yakakura uye inoda torque yakawanda. Saka, dhizaini yecamshaft inoda simba rakawanda uye zvinodiwa zvekutsigira. Inowanzo gadzirwa nesimbi yemhando yepamusoro kana alloy. Dhizaini yecamshaft inoita basa rakakosha mukugadzira injini nekuti mutemo wekufamba kwevharuvhu une chekuita nesimba uye mashandiro einjini.
Camshaft inobatwa nemagetsi nguva nenguva. Kusangana kweCAM neturtet kwakakura zvikuru, uye kumhanya kwekutsvedza kwakanyanyawo, saka kupfeka kwenzvimbo yekushanda yeCAM kwakakomba. Tichifunga nezvemamiriro ezvinhu aya, camshaft journal nenzvimbo yekushanda yeCAM inofanira kunge yakanyatsojeka, isina kuomarara uye yakasimba zvakakwana, asiwo inofanira kunge iine simba rekudzivirira kupisa uye mafuta akanaka.
Ma camshaft anowanzo gadzirwa nesimbi yemhando yepamusoro yekabhoni kana alloy, asi anogonawo kugadzirwa nesimbi ye alloy kana nodular cast. Nzvimbo yekushanda yejournal neCAM inokwenenzverwa mushure mekupisa.
