Advantages and disadvantages of cam mechanism
1, the advantages of the cam mechanism
By designing the appropriate cam profile, the follower can be arbitrarily expected to move, and the structure is simple, compact and convenient to design, so in automatic machine tools, light industrial machinery, textile machinery, printing machinery, food machinery, packaging machinery and Widely used in mechatronic products.
2, the disadvantages of the cam mechanism
1) The point between the cam and the follower is in contact with the line, which is easy to wear and should only be used in occasions where the transmission force is not large;
2) The accuracy of cam profile is high, and it needs to be processed by CNC machine tool;
3) The stroke of the follower should not be too large, otherwise the cam will become bulky.
