The Project Involves Removing the Motor's Camshaft and Replacing It with an Innovative Solenoid Operated System

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 22, 2016 / Tony Joseph Piro, an inventor with 15 years' experience in the automotive industry, is pleased to announce the launch of his Camless Motor Project. As Piro explained, the new Camless Motor idea is already creating a serious buzz in the engineering and design space industries.

Although many motor designs require customers to prioritize either power or fuel efficiency at the expense of the other, Piro said he has developed a new kind of motor that maximizes both through a fundamental change to typical motor design.

"By building a motor without a cam and instead using a cutting-edge solenoid operating system, this new motor will have greater horsepower, torque, and fuel economy than comparable motors on the market now," he said. Removing the camshaft and using a solenoid operating system was part of Piro's senior design project and was a requirement for graduating from the University of Wyoming mechanical engineering curriculum undergraduate program.

"Through the Camless Motor Project, I have created a working prototype of a cam-less motor on a 4 cylinder internal combustion motor. This prototype will hopefully increase the fuel economy, horsepower, and torque of the motor by freeing up the valve train system by removing the camshaft and associated parts in the valve train."

As Piro noted, by using a solenoid operated system that will open the valves, it will be possible to replace the camshaft and associated components. In turn, he said, this will allow motor to use less fuel while also having greater power.

In order to help pay for the costs associated with researching and producing the innovative new Camless Motor Project, Piro recently started a fundraising campaign on Kickstarter. He hopes to raise $60,000 through crowdfunding to help bring the camless motor to as many people as possible, and to complete his engineering undergraduate program.

About the Camless Motor Project:

The Camless Motor Project's innovative design shows great promise and has the potential to seriously transform contemporary motor design. With so many possible uses for this motor, its significance stretches far beyond the discipline of engineering and is poised to be useful in many different products and markets.
