CAD: Making a cam mechanism
I am trying to create a cam lock mechanism for the Stackerbox-Mecanum chassis I posted earlier this week, yet I can't seem to get the dimensions quite right. Below is the result of 3 hours of my best efforts to figure it out. Ideally, the curve would be smooth. In exactly 270 degrees, I need the radius of the cam to smoothly go from 1" to 2" and then back to 1" in the remaining 90 degrees.
Currently I am using the spline tool in a solidworks sketch, but that seems to be too innaccurate for real-world applications. Any suggestions? ![]() |
