Since the existing automatic press-fitting equipment cannot accurately control the angle between the set gear teeth of the signal wheel and the set reference of the camshaft, in actual production, after the signal wheel is pressed, it is necessary to check the angle between the set gear teeth and the set reference, and control the angle deviation within the allowable tolerance range to ensure that the product can guarantee normal performance after being installed in the engine.
