A roller camshaft for actuating cylinder poppet valves of an internal combustion engine includes a carrier shaft adapted for rotation by an engine crankshaft. The camshaft may be equipped with more than one cam lobe, with each lobe having a base circle portion, an acceleration ramp, a deceleration ramp, a tappet contacting roller housed in a socket positioned at a nose of the lobe, a leading transition ramp located adjacent both the acceleration ramp and the roller, and a trailing transition ramp located adjacent both the deceleration ramp and the roller.
