5.1. Introduction

Cam is a common
mechanism element
that drives a mating
component known as
a follower

5.3. Follower motion scheme

A cam is to be used for a platform that will repeatedly lift boxes from a lower
conveyor to an upper conveyor. Plot a displacement diagram and determine the
required speed of the cam when the follower motion sequence is as follows:

5.3. Follower motion scheme

EXAMPLE A cam is to be designed for an automated part loader. Using the


motion equations, construct a chart that tabulates follower
displacement versus time and cam rotation. Also plot this data
when the prescribed motion for this application is as follows:

5.4. Pressure Angle

Because a force is always transmitted


perpendicular to surfaces in contact,
the cam does not always push the
follower in the direction of its motion.

5.5. Cam Profile Design

The base circle is the smallest circle centered on the cam rotation axis
and tangent to the cam surface.
