Camless engine
A camless engine is a type of internal combustion engine that uses electronic actuators to control the valves, rather than the traditional camshaft. These engines are called ME engines or Mechanical Electronic engines. They were designed to improve engine performance, reduce emissions, and increase fuel efficiency.
Why did the Camless engine come into action?
Camless engines came into action due to the following reasons:
- In normal engines valve timing is controlled by the camshaft due to which a large amount of energy is lost in rotating the camshaft. But in these new ME engines there is no cam so there is no power loss. This allows for greater control over the timing and duration of the valve opening and closing, resulting in improved efficiency and power output.
- Camless engines also have fewer moving parts than traditional camshaft-driven engines, which reduces the weight and complexity of the engine. This can improve fuel efficiency and reduce maintenance costs, weight and complexity of the engine. This can improve fuel efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
Overall, camless engines offer several advantages over traditional camshaft-driven engines, including improved engine performance, reduced emissions, increased fuel efficiency, and reduced maintenance costs. As a result, they have become increasingly popular in marine and other applications where performance and efficiency are critical.
