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 matches the original part in every critical dimension, ensuring a direct drop-in installation with no guesswork. It is the correct replacement for both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants. When the original camshaft wears or fails, replacing it with the genuine Wacker Neuson restores proper engine valve timing and keeps your compactor running at full capacity.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Valve Timing Accuracy — Machined to the exact lobe profile and journal tolerances specified for the DPU 7060 engine, ensuring correct valve lift and timing throughout the rpm range.
- Direct-Fit Installation — Matches the original camshaft's journal dimensions, drive gear interface, and bearing seat positions for a straightforward swap during engine rebuild or repair.
- Confirmed Fitment — Compatible with the DPU 7060 reversible vibratory plate compactor and the DPU 7060RC remote-controlled model, covering both heavy-duty diesel configurations in this 70 kN class.
- Sustained Compaction Performance — A correctly functioning camshaft maintains proper engine power output, which directly supports the full compaction force and reversing capability these machines are built to deliver.
- Engine Longevity — Using a genuine OEM camshaft prevents the premature valve wear and misfiring that result from substituting an incorrectly profiled or undersized replacement.
The camshaft is a core engine timing component that controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in sync with the pistons. It works by rotating at half the crankshaft speed, with its lobes pushing against the valve train to let the air-fuel mixture in and exhaust gases out at precisely the right moment. When a camshaft wears down or fails, valve timing becomes erratic, causing a loss of power, rough running, increased fuel consumption, and — if left unaddressed — serious internal engine damage.
