Nockenwellenversteller
A Nockenwellenversteller, also known as a camshaft adjuster, is a device used in internal combustion engines to adjust the timing of the camshaft relative to the crankshaft. This adjustment is crucial for optimizing engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions. The Nockenwellenversteller typically consists of a screw mechanism that can be turned to advance or retard the camshaft's position.
The primary function of a Nockenwellenversteller is to compensate for wear and tear on the camshaft and
The adjustment process usually involves loosening a locking nut, turning the adjuster screw to the desired
Nockenwellenversteller are commonly found in engines that use overhead camshafts (OHC) or double overhead camshafts (DOHC)
