In place of a knife-edge, a roller is provided at the contacting end of the follower, hence, the name roller follower. Instead of sliding motion between the contacting surface of the follower and the …

2022年3月26日 · Knife-edge follower: If the follower has just a knife-edge with the cam then we call it a knife-edge follower. the knife-edge is only theoretical because knife-edge follower is …

2023年1月9日 · The roller follower is essentially used in high-speed operations. It is because it holds smooth contact with the surface. In addition, It has less wear and tear than the other …

1) Knife edge follower: In this type of follower, the contact end of the follower is Knife edge which is used to contact with the surface of the cam. Due to the high wear rate, the use of Knife edge …

Knife-Edged Follower: Features a knife-edge contact with the cam, typically not used due to high wear. Roller Follower: Uses a roller to reduce friction and handle high loads. Flat Face …

6.5.1 Disk Cam with Knife-Edge Translating Follower. Figure 6-12 is a skeleton diagram of a disk cam with a knife-edge translating follower. We assume that the cam mechanism will be used …

When the contacting end of the follower has a sharp knife edge, it is called a knife edge follower, as shown in Fig. 2(a). The sliding motion takes place between the contacting surfaces (i.e. the …

For the ease of the discussion, let’s take the example of creating the cam profile of a knife edge follower: Total lift = 80 mm. Base circle diameter = 100 mm. Bottom dwell = 0 to 90 0. Rise = …

2022年6月18日 · A knife-edge follower, as the name implies, has a sharp knife-edge that comes into contact with the cam. The motion is created by the cam and the sharp knife edge. A …

This video explains how to draw a cam profile in case of knife edge follower. The out stroke is with simple harmonic motion (S.H.M.) and return stroke is als...
