The camshaft is an engine component that controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves. The camshaft is driven by the crankshaft and rotates at the same speed as the crankshaft. The camshaft is made of a strong, durable material, such as steel. It is typically located in the cylinder head or the engine block. The camshaft has a series of lobes, or bumps, on it. The lobes are used to open and close the valves. The camshaft is a complex and important part of the engine, and it is essential for the proper operation of the engine.
