Focus of today's product development in the area of combustion engines is besides the cost reduction also the introduction of friction reduction and lightweight solutions. Through innovative design and use of new materials, future functional and lightweight components can be successfully realized. Intelligent solutions in the field of coatings and the local integration of needle bearings can reduce engine losses on new generation of combustion engines drastically. This work aims to present new and innovative solutions that can be successfully implemented in the valve train/cylinder head system of modern internal combustion engines.
