CUMMINS Valve Train Test Rig

New systems have been developed to study the cam/tappet interaction in its original environment. All the three main parameters – friction, oil film thickness, and tappet rotation – have been measured for a range of engine conditions and lubricant types. The experimental techniques used were developed in such a way that the modifications had no detrimental effect on the CUMMINS-Valve Train Test Rig performance.
