Abstract
A camshaft includes a carrier shaft to be mounted rotatably in a shaft axis and at least one cam pack axially displaceable on the carrier shaft. The cam pack includes at least two cams and at least one adjusting member for axial adjustment of the cam pack. The cams and adjusting member are interconnected in an axially adjacent configuration by an integrally molded body. The body is integrally molded on at least one cam and the adjusting member by an original molding process and a composite structure is formed by the integrally molded body. The composite structure can be mounted in a direct configuration on the carrier shaft to be axially displaceable thereon. The cams and the adjusting member include inner toothing engaging in an axially displaceable manner with outer toothing of the carrier shaft. A cam pack and a method for producing a camshaft are also provided.
