For problem, determine the speed of the cam and use the motion equations and a spreadsheet to plot a displacement diagram of the follower. Also calculate the maximum velocity and acceleration of the follower.
Use the required cam follower motion specified in Problem 1.
Problem 1
A cam drive is required for an automated slide on a screw machine that turns intricate parts. The cam follower must rise outward 1.5 in. with constant acceleration in 1.2 s, dwell for 0.7 s, fall 0.5 in. with constant acceleration in 0.9 s, dwell for 0.5 s, fall 1.0 in. with constant acceleration in 1.2 s, and then repeat the sequence. Determine the required speed of the cam and graphically plot a follower displacement diagram.
