Outline of Product

High-Speed Valve Lift Control

This engine development tool enables high-speed valve lift control by adopting a highly responsive hydraulic actuator.

Feature

Contributes to the Development of Advanced Engines
Capable of developing advanced engines with features such as variable valve lift timing, combined cycle (proper use in multi-cycle load ranges such as HCCI, etc.), a next-generation valve drive system, etc.
Improves the Level of Optimization
Multiple engines can be operated by changing the valve lift patterns in the same setup to enable optimization development within short periods for small budgets.
Shortens Development Periods
The cost and period for trial manufacturing are significantly reduced by eliminating the need to change the cam setup.

Application Items

  • Diesel engine (single cylinder, multi-cylinder)
  • Gasoline engine
