Large Camshafts

Large Camshaft Manufacturing

Ideal for Industrial Applications

LSM understands what it takes to make large camshafts and has produced camshafts up to 2.5 meters long with journals up to 150 mm in diameter. Large camshafts typically require deep heat treatment. We have induction hardeners with enough power to get a very deep case into a large diameter lobe.

LSM has what it takes to make your large camshaft whether it is a single part or assembled from segments. Reach out to LSM and let us help make your large camshaft project a reality.

Keys to Large Camshaft Manufacturing

Capability Needed for Your Application

Advanced CNC Production
LSM manufactures new cams from bar stock using state-of-the-art CNC production technology. Our production envelope can accommodate sizes from single-piece cams up to 2.5 meters long and segmented camshafts that are much longer. Our fully CNC-driven machines can handle any profile that is grindable, ensuring flexibility and precision.

High-Quality Materials and Heat Treatment
We produce induction-hardened cams from a number of alloys as well as carburized cams, meeting stringent requirements for durability and performance. Our expertise in heat treatment processes ensures that every camshaft we produce delivers exceptional strength and longevity.
