The Wacker Neuson Camshaft is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this camshaft meets the exact specifications of the original part installed at the factory. It fits both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants, making it the correct replacement choice for either configuration. When your compactor's engine shows signs of reduced power, irregular valve timing, or worn valve train components, replacing the camshaft with a genuine OEM part restores proper engine operation and protects the surrounding drivetrain components.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Valve Timing Accuracy — Manufactured to the exact lobe profile and journal dimensions of the original, ensuring correct intake and exhaust valve timing for the engine in the DPU 7060 series.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Machined to original tolerances so the camshaft seats correctly in the engine block with no additional fitting or modification to the bearing journals or timing components.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC — Verified for both the standard 70 kN reversible vibratory plate and the remote-controlled RC variant, covering the full DPU 7060 product line.
- Protects the Valve Train — A correctly profiled camshaft maintains proper lift and duration on every valve cycle, reducing wear on lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms over the service life of the machine.
- Engine Integrity Under Heavy Compaction Loads — The DPU 7060 operates under sustained high-vibration conditions; a genuine OEM camshaft delivers the hardness and surface finish needed to withstand those demands without accelerated lobe wear.
The camshaft is a precision-machined rotating shaft inside the engine that controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves through a series of lobes. As the engine runs, the camshaft rotates in time with the crankshaft, pushing the valves open at precisely the right moment in the combustion cycle to allow the air-fuel mixture in and exhaust gases out. When a camshaft wears or develops damaged lobes, valve timing is disrupted, leading to loss of compression, rough running, reduced power output, and increased fuel consumption — all of which directly impact the compaction performance of the DPU 7060 on the job.
