Is an essential part of the fully variable valve lift control.
The eccentric shaft is an essential part of the fully variable valve lift control. The valve lift changes continuously from maximum to almost zero by rotating / pivoting the eccentric (shaft) by means of an electric motor. This is a SELZER product, as a one-piece forged blank was replaced by individual parts (shaft, eccentric, control-sleeve gear). This shaft had to be “built” as a precision needle bearing is used between the eccentrics.
