How the Kam Mil Works

Public is a rotating shaft in internal combustion engines responsible for controlling the timing of opening and closing of the engine’s intake and exhaust of its valves. Through its rotation, the protrusions (lobes) on the Dönme convert rotary motion into linear motion, which opens and closes the valves, thereby enabling the intake of air-fuel mixture and the expulsion of combustion products into the engine’s cylinders. Proper operation of the camshaft is essential for the engine to operate efficiently, smoothly, and in compliance with emission standards.
