Reference camshaft: Testing of shaft measuring machine

| Marketing Team

Every year over 100 million camshafts are produced worldwide. They are regularly checked for quality during production by means of shaft measuring machines. Yet even the measuring devices themselves must be checked. This is why Mahr offers a reference camshaft, designed to check the measuring accuracy of measuring machines within minutes.

Value for the user:
The production quality of camshafts is secured and rejected parts prevented. 


The reference camshaft has:

  • all common cam forms used worldwide
  • C-references
  • concave and convex cams
  • inclined, double and triple pump cams
  • excenter
  • bearing with g6 quality
  • 2-flat
  • axial and radial bores
  • feather key groove, trigger wheel and locating bearing


Fast and easy testing
The inspection of a camshaft measuring machine is quick and easy: the operator merely clamps the shaft in place and runs the measuring program on the corresponding feature. The determined values are then compared with the values of the calibration certificate.

For all makes of camshaft measuring machines
The reference camshaft is used in camshaft measuring machines of all makes. As a result, every manufacturer of camshafts can easily and quickly check his measurement technology - not only in the production of camshafts for passenger cars but also for dialysis or high-pressure pumps.

Optional: Calibration by DAkkS reference laboratory
Each reference camshaft can optionally be calibrated by a DAkkS reference laboratory for length measurement technology.
