A cam drive is used for a mechanism that packs stuffing into shipping boxes. The cam follower must rise outward 3 in. with cycloidal motion in 2 s, dwell for 0.5 s , fall 1 in. with cycloidal motion in 1.0 s, dwell for 0.5 s, fall with cycloidal motion 2 in. 2.0 s and then repeat the process. a) Determine the required speed of the cam. b) Graphically and by using EXCEL plot a follower displacement diagram. c) Use the motion equations to calculate the precise displacement of the follower at 0.8 s, 1.5 s, 2.3 s, 3.3 s, 4.5 s and 5.5 s. d) Calculate the maximum velocity and acceleration of the follower.
