As for determining roller profile I made a sweep having reference points every 1/8 inch. I have attached 2 pictures showing the sketch in CAD and the finished assembly.

This looks great! Nice circular contour. If you're interested in the math, I posted a couple of short papers
here showing two different ways to derive the formula for the roller profile.
You said it was used in a "high capacity application". What was that?
