  2. One thing you learn in science is that there is no perfect answer, no perfect measure. A. O. Beckman Topic 7: CAMs Cam and Follower

  3. Chapters Objectives • Up on completion of this chapter, the student will be able to • Understand how to design a CAM-FOLLOWER Systems.

  4. Cam Follower

  5. Cam • A cam is a rotating or sliding piece in a mechanical linkage used especially in transforming rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. It is often a part of a rotating wheel (eg. an eccentric wheel) or shaft (eg a cylinder with an irregular shape) that strikes a lever at one or more points on its circular path. The cam can be a simple tooth, as is used to deliver pulses of power to a steam hammer, for example, or an eccentric disc or other shape that produces a smooth reciprocating (back and forth) motion in the follower which is a lever making contact with the cam. • The reason the cam acts as a lever is because the hole is not directly in the centre, therefore moving the cam rather than just spinning. On the other hand, some cams are made with a hole exactly in the centre and their sides act as cams to move the levers touching them to move up and down or to go back and forth.

  6. Design of Cam Systems

  7. Design of Cam Systems The first stage in designing a cam system is the creation of a displacement diagram. A typical plate cam with an in-line roller follower is shown below with a displacement diagram. This figure shows the following characteristic features. • Rise:This is when the follower is moving away from the cam centre. The slope reflects the follower velocity. • Dwell: the is the period when the follower is stationary • Return: This is when the follower moves back towards the cam centre • Base circle: on the cam is the smallest full diameter of the cam. • Prime circle: is centered on the cam rotation centre with radius at the follower roller centre when the follower is on the base circle • Cam profile: is the shaped surface of the cam defining the follower motion
