Abstract: Presented is a modified trapezoidal cam profile with an adjustable forward and backward acceleration. The profile is suitable for single-dwell cam and follower applications. The main benefit of ...

Abstract: Background. Cam-driven machines are frequently manufactured with the intent that they be installed in many different end applications, each with its own natural frequencies. A cam-driven component ...

Abstract: Presented in this paper is an asymmetric acceleration-derived cam motion program suitable for single-dwell cam-follower systems with clearance between the cam and follower during dwell. Asymmetric ...

Abstract: Cam follower systems are widely used in manufacturing because of their precise motion and ability to easily dwell. The cam typically drives a follower in some precise motion needed to accomplish ...

Abstract: Cam-follower systems are ideally suited for many machine applications that require a specific and an accurate output motion. The required follower motion is achieved by carefully designing the ...
