Cam Design Handbook
The transformation of a simple motion, such as rotation, into linear or other motion is accomplished by means of a cam--two moving elements mounted on a fixed frame. Cam devices are versatile--almost any specified motion can be obtained.
If you work with industrial applications where precision is essential, the Cam Design Handbook is a key resource youâ€
ll need handy at all times. Youâ€
ll find thorough, detailed coverage of cams in industrial machinery, automotive optimization, and gadgets and inventions.
A cam is a specially shaped part of a machine that is always in contact with a member called the follower. In this guide to cam manufacture and design, Rothbart (dean emeritus, College of Science and Engineering,Fairleigh Dickinson University) examines the advantages of cams over other motion devices, describes computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques, and provides information on numerical controls for manufacturing, cam curves, cam profile geometry, cam hardware, and cam system dynamics. Information is applicable in industrial and commercial machinery, automotive performance and optimization, and microelectromechanical systems
Written with tremendous practical insight by engineering experts, the Cam Design Handbook gathers the information you need to understand cam manufacture and design. Comprehensive in scope and authoritative in nature, the book delivers a firm grasp of:
