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 used for a mechanism that drives an automated assembly machine. The cam follower must rise outward 13 mm with constant velocity in 3 s, dwell for 3 s, fall 5 mm with constant acceleration in 2 s, dwell for 3 s, fall 8 mm with constant acceleration in 2 s, and then repeat the sequence. Determine the required speed of the cam and graphically plot a follower displacement diagram.
