Abstract

A method for arranging a camshaft in a camshaft module includes arranging cam elements and a switching element on a carrier tube to so as to form a displacement element having a bearing section, outside or external to a module housing. The carrier tube is then cut in a region of a bearing section to form two parts. One of the parts is arranged into a bearing bridge in a module housing. The other part is then joined to the first part that was inserted into the bearing bridge.
