POWER TRACKERS

The very essentials of engines are :
                                                   *Cam shaft
                                                   *Crank shaft

CAMSHAFT:
                     It is commonly denoted as CAM.In IC engines, the camshaft is used to operate valves. It  consists of a cylindrical rod running the length of the cylindrical bank.The cams force the valves open by pressing on the valve, or on some intermediate mechanism as they rotate.The cam shaft acts as a timing sector by opening and closing the inlet and exhaust valves and making the spark plug to produce correct spark at required time.One end of the crankshaft is connected to the camshaft with the help of ruggering chain.Thus it tracks the movement of piston and crankshaft and operates according to it.


CRANKSHAFT:


                     It is commonly denoted as CRANK.In IC engines the reciprocating movement of piston is converted in to rotating movement with the help of crank shaft.To the end of the crank shaft is connected the flywheel.
