Camshaft design book
Camshaft design book
(OP)
I'm looking for a good book that explains really well the principles of camshaft/cam profile design. Which will hopefully include: calculations/maths, types of cam, materials, manufacturing,applications, etc....thanks





RE: Camshaft design book
Get a copy of "Cam Design & Manufacturing Handbook" by Norton, or "Introduction to Engine Valvetrains" by Wang. Both are good technical references and are current.
