What
are cams?
Cams convert rotary oscillating or linear motion
into a linear or reciprocating action to carry out useful work.Types of cams:
- Plate cam
- cylindrical cam
- Face cam
- End cam
Plate cam:
Sometimes called a disc, radial or edge cam. Made up of a
flat plate or disc with an edge profile to transmit motion.
cylindrical cam:
Sometimes
called a barrel cam. It’s curved surface has a groove machined, within which a
follower is contained. The movement is parallel to cam axis.
Face cam:
In its flat
surface, this rotary cam has a groove cut within which a constrained follower
moves. The groove ensures no need for a return spring.
End cam:
