Abstract
The invention relates to a method for assembling a camshaft by using a shaft () and a plurality of cams () comprising respectively an opening for the shaft. According to the invention, the cams are disposed in a tight manner in a storage element (), in such a way that they are orientated towards each other in a predefined rotative position, the openings thereof for the shaft being orientated in a coaxial manner. The shaft is then introduced into the cam packet and arranged consecutively with respect to each individual cam by displacement in the longitudinal direction thereof. The cams are secured one after the other on the shaft. The required rotation of the cams can be obtained in a simple manner by longitudinal displacement of the shaft and also by optionally rotating the shaft at a certain angle.
