Trace point: A theoretical point on the follower, corresponding to the point of a fictitious knife-edge
follower. It is used to generate the pitch curve. In the case of a roller follower, the trace point is at the center
of the roller of the roller.
Pitch curve: The path generated by the trace point at the follower is rotated about a stationary cam.
Working curve (cam profile): The working surface of a cam in contact with the follower. For the
knife-edge follower of the plate cam, the pitch curve and the working curves coincide. In a close or grooved cam
there is an inner profile and an outer working curve.
Pitch circle: A circle from the cam center through the pitch point. The pitch circle radius is used to
calculate a cam of minimum size for a given pressure angle.
Prime circle (reference circle): The smallest circle from the cam center through the pitch curve. Prime circle (reference circle): The smallest circle from the cam center through the pitch curve.
Base circle: The smallest circle from the cam center through the cam profile curve.
Stroke or throw: The greatest distance or angle through which the follower moves or rotates.
Follower displacement: The position of the follower from a specific zero or rest position (usually Follower displacement: The position of the follower from a specific zero or rest position (usually
its the position when the follower contacts with the base circle of the cam) in relation to time or the
rotary angle of the cam.
Pressure angle: The angle at any point between the common normal to the pitch curve (the line of
action) and the instantaneous direction of the follower motion. This angle is important in cam design
because it represents the steepness of the cam profile.

Cam Design Steps for knife-edge in-line follower:
1) Specify the displacement diagram, and chose the proper follower type.
The cam profile can be constructed to provide the desired output
motion.
2) Use the principle of inversion to construct the cam profile, i.e. hold the
cam fixed and rotate the follower and the frame in a direction opposite
to cam.
3) D th b i l ith di Rb (f ll f ll dd th ll 3) Draw the base circle with radius Rb. (for roller follower add the roller
radius to it)
4) Divide the displacement diagram and the cam into equal number of
divisions divisions
5) At an angular position measure the value of rise in the displacement
diagram, add to it Rb and place it in the corresponding angular position
on the cam. This is done to all points in the displacement diagram. on the cam. This is done to all points in the displacement diagram.
6) If the cam motion is a clockwise, then the points are placed counter
clockwise.
7) Connect all points by smooth curve, this will form the cam profile. ) p y p
