Cam Displacement Diagram

Cam Displacement Diagram illustrates the movement (displacement) profile of a cam follower over one complete cycle, facilitating the design and analysis of cam mechanisms.

Cam

A mechanical component that transforms rotational motion into linear motion, or vice versa, often used in engines and various machines to drive or control motion.

Radial Cam

A cam in which the follower moves radially relative to the cam center, translating rotational motion into linear motion.

Cylindrical Cam

A rotating cylinder used in machinery to convert rotational movement into linear movement of a follower.
